Fabulous rocky outcrop that invites you to do a bit of "lite" climbing and jumping from rock to rock (this was more fun in my 20s than in my late 50s) Stunning views along the coastline and can walk back to Lynton/ Lynmouth from here to get the most of the scenery

Starting with a fabulous walk up the river to Watersmeet house, followed by easy to follow pathways up to the moors and along the cliff paths back to Lynmouth - stunning scenery all the way.

Where the lush valleys of Hoar Oak Water and the East Lyn river tumble together sits Watersmeet House, a 19th-century fishing lodge, now a National Trust shop, tea room and information point. Watersmeet House was built in 1832 as a fishing lodge by the Reverend W.S. Halliday, the son of a rich businessman. The stone for the house was quarried at Watersmeet, above the East Lyn River. Sitting in a beautiful wooded river valley, Watersmeet and its surrounds are a fantastic place to walk, and enjoy the abundant wildlife and nature of this part of Exmoor.

What a lovely surprise finding this place...and it's FREE!!! Small cash boxes are dotted around if you want to make a donation..and to be fair you really should, but it's completely free to go in and witness one of the best model railways you'll ever see in Britain. It's massive and really well thought out ( albeit thick of dust in places ) and you can stand and enjoy the engines running round the various areas and scenarios. Not just a model railway but also a model shop selling lots of accessories to enhance your own layout should you be lucky enough to own one. I could've stood there a lot longer had I been on my own and not with my partner. Well worth a visit.
