Church
Farm is a beautifully preserved National
Trust farmhouse tucked away in an idyllic rural
location near Dunkery Beacon in a beautiful part of Exmoor
National Park.
It is situated at the head of the East Water and is surrounded
by open moorland where wild red deer and Exmoor
ponies roam freely. A
walkers' paradise on Exmoor. The farmhouse is just below the
little 13th century church at Stoke
Pero and faces a cluster of immaculately maintained
stone barns.
Church Farm is close to the spectacular North
Devon Coast and beaches and surrounded by beautiful
heather clad moorland - a wonderful sight in the Autumn. Try
an Exmoor Safari in comfort in a Land Rover Discovery 3 with
Red Stag Safaris
with the legendary off road ability of a Land Rover combined
with the comfort of a luxury car. Ford Exmoors rivers, view
its landmarks, see the wildlife ponies and deer with a knowledgeable
local Exmoor man Andrew Turner as your guide. Learn about the
geology, history, customs, the tale of Lorna Doone along with
the farming practices of Exmoor.

The
picturesque village of Porlock
leading to Porlock Hill is nearby also the picturesque hamlet
of Porlock Weir,
once a busy port and fishing village. The medieval village of
Dunster and Dunster
Castle and the pretty seaside town of Minehead
are about 9 miles away.
The surfing beaches of Woolacombe, Croyde and Putsborough in
North Devon and the Doone Valley aren't too far
away for a great day out.
During
your stay pay a visit to the nearby National
Trust properties of Dunster Castle, Arlington
