The region

Exford is a charming village at the very heart of Exmoor National Park, set in a beautiful valley where the River Exe begins its long journey south to the sea.



The village is centred around a traditional green, with stone cottages, ancient bridges over the river, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Exford has long been a popular base for walkers, riders, and anglers, and it remains one of the finest starting points for exploring Exmoor's open moorland, wooded valleys, and dramatic coastline.



Village Amenities



Exford has a well-stocked community shop and post office selling groceries, newspapers, and everyday essentials. There are two pubs serving food and drink, and a tea room offering homemade cakes and cream teas. The village also has a primary school, a children's play area on the green, and a car park.

The nearest mini-supermarket and petrol station is in Wheddon Cross, approximately 5 miles away. Dulverton, around 8 miles south, is a handsome small town on the southern edge of the National Park with a good range of independent shops, a butcher, a chemist, and the Exmoor National Park Visitor Centre.
