East Hollowcombe Farm
East Hollowcombe Farm, a welcoming and comfortable family home, enjoys beautiful views over the surrounding valleys and moorland of this superb part of Exmoor. This attractive 18th Century farmhouse set in 40 acres is tucked in the small village of Hawkridge, surrounded by woodland, farmland and open moorland, and is a wonderful opportunity for an extended family to enjoy fabulous walking on The Exe Valley Way, or spot the diverse wildlife of deer, Exmoor ponies, heron, fox and many different bird species that can be seen around the village. The famous ancient clapper bridge of Tarr steps is an easy walk away, where a refreshing pint or a cream tea can be enjoyed at the Tarr Farm Inn. Riding here is unsurpassed with miles of bridleways and East Hollowcombe offers excellent DIY facilities for horse owners, with good grazing, 6 loose boxes and ample space for horse trailers (all by arrangement with the owners). East Hollowcombe is a practical, no frills holiday base with en-suite facilities for every bedroom and plenty of comfortable living space - a marvellous place for adventure and tranquillity at any time of the year.
