ブレンドンとカウンティスベリーのおすすめツーリングルート

Great place for a cream tea!

Get in touch with Lee Abbey before arriving to ensure they can welcome you and give you a passport to stamp.

Pick up your passport at reception. If you're in time for 8am you can join community prayers and be blessed as you go! Grab a leaflet about Lee Abbey, year round courses and retreats are offered.

This valley is offering a special microclimate, much milder and without the heavy winds of the open planes. plants are growing here which only a few hundred yards away have not succeeded to survive. Even rhododendron is growing in big bushes. if someone wanted to live in Exmoor this valley would be a perfect hideaway. No surprise that apparently there was apparently an ancient settlement. Remains however are rather scattered.

This is a scenic ride with phenomenal views out to Lee Bay and Crock Point. Lee Abbey is nearby with a café and restrooms.

Dropping down throught the trees and to the river feels prehistoric and anathama to the bare moorland above. Refil water in the stream and carry on towards the coast.
