Perched high on the border where Devon meets Somerset, Exmoor County Gate offers an unforgettable introduction to the wild beauty of Exmoor National Park.

Experiencing Exmoor County Gate without a car allows you to truly savour the journey and the captivating landscapes unfolding around every turn.<\/p>\n","admin-ai-notes":"The content highlights the scenic views, walking opportunities (Coleridge Way, Doone Country), and the local tea room, all within the context of travelling without a car.
