In the heart of Tarka country in the rolling valleys of North Devon, lies the small village of Umberleigh, a quiet village set around the old three arched Umberleigh bridge by the River Taw. Near the pretty village square with its pub serving local ales and village shop and post office, is the quaint railway station where trains run on the scenic Tarka Line to Barnstaple or Exeter. A ten minute drive from Umberleigh takes you to the historic town of Great Torrington, with independent shops, Dartington glassworks where visitors can watch in wonder at the glassblowers, and on the outskirts of town is Rosemoor a garden of national importance with forty acres to delight and inspire a wide range of visitors. With plentiful country walks, fishing and golf, this area of North Devon provides a great escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Previous visitors' comments about Exmoor Cottage:
We had a wonderful time there. The hosts were absolutely great. They knew all the good spots for meals and the local shops. We felt like one of the family and would have loved to stay for an extra few weeks.

Lovely cottage with stunning views. Well equipped in a nice location. Owners very helpful. Would definitely stay again.
Mrs Butler, Warwick, September 2012
The location of the cottage was absolutely beautiful and the friendliness of the owners and the people staying in the neighbouring cottage was exceptional. Also as we have a very large dog it was really pleasant to see how many people approached us, this is not an experience we have in Germany.
Mr Williams, Mettmann, August 2012
The accommodation was excellent inside and out. The couple who own the property were fabulous. The view from the cottage beautiful.
