Weatherham Farm is home to two delightful holiday cottages, located in a lovely rural position within the Exmoor National Park. Situated in the upper part of the River Exe valley, near Dulverton in Somerset, Weatherham Farm is close to Wimbleball Lake and just one mile away from the village of Brompton Regis, with its pub serving good food and ale.
Fully centrally heated and with log burners for enjoying a real fire, the holiday cottages provide comfortable and relaxing retreats at any time of the year. They are both equipped to a high standard and retain much original character with oak beams and uneven walls. From the minute you arrive, you can instantly start to unwind as you will find beds made up, fluffy towels, fresh flowers, a cream tea, roaring log fire during winter months (or one ready to be lit) and a welcome basket all waiting to greet you.
Sitting on the softer eastern side of Exmoor, the cottages are surrounded by quiet, varied countryside in which you can escape the crowds and do your own exploring. This is an area of wooded valleys with rivers and sparkling streams and open hills with gentle farming pastures and heather moorland, dotted with ancient villages and hamlets with traditional pubs and old churches.
The village of Brompton Regis is just one mile away with a shop and pub and the charming town of Dulverton (the sedate and friendly capital of Exmoor) is four miles with its quaint atmosphere, statue of Lorna Doone and good selection of shops, restaurants and pubs - an interesting little centre reminiscent of bygone villages.
Two miles away from the cottages is Wimbleball Lake, offering a wide selection of outdoor activities and the coast is under half an hour away by car providing beaches and interesting scenery for walking and also bird watching. Within a twenty minute drive are some of Exmoor's most famous places including Tarr Steps and Dunster village with its historic buildings, castle and medieval yarn market. The local area to Weatherham Farm also provides plenty of access to fly fishing for trout and salmon.
Surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside, Toads Breech at Weatherham Farm offers a peaceful rural retreat where you can enjoy complete relaxation amongst fine scenery in any season.
