Exebridge Lakeside

Why stay here

On the doorstep of Exmoor National Park, Exebridge Lakeside provides stunning views of the surrounding hills and the Exe Valley. Perfect for adventurers, the site has something for everyone, from walkers and cyclists to stargazers and watersports lovers. The quiet town of Dulverton is within easy reach of the campsite and offers views towards Exmoor, plus plenty of wildlife and historic bridges to discover.

Family days out

Head to Wimbleball Lake which offers a variety of activities for the whole family, both on and off the water. Try your hand at sailing and canoeing or stay safe on dry land with archery. For those with a penchant for heights, there's also an indoor climbing wall and a high ropes course. Budding climbers could also head to Wall in the Hall in Tiverton for even more rock climbing adventuring.

Older children will enjoy Tiverton Castle, where they can learn all about the castle's history and even try on English Civil War Armour.

Activities & experiences nearby

• Cycling

  The long-distance National Cycle route 3 connects Land’s End in Cornwall to Bristol. From Exebridge go east towards Taunton or north west towards Barnstaple to join the path. There are also plenty of easier routes around the local area too if you don't fancy a long trek. 

• Walking

  With Exmoor National Park close by, there are plenty of great opportunities for walking in the area. The Exe Valley Way is divided into 10 stages with bus links between them. Stage 7 of the walk passes Exebridge on its way from Bampton near Tiverton to Brushford, mainly following the River Exe.

• Things to try

  As Britain's first International Dark Skies Reserve, Exmoor National Park is well worth a late-night visit. Take a camera, a torch and a blanket (and maybe some snacks!) and spend an hour or so looking up at the stars.

  During the day, the Grade I listed Tarr Steps which cross the River Barle are well worth a visit. Claiming the title of Britain's longest clapper bridge at 50 metres long, the steps are built from huge slabs of rock and you can stroll across them at your leisure.

• Pubs and restaurants

  The Anchor Inn is the closest pub to the campsite, offering great service and casual riverside dining. If you're up for travelling a little further afield, head to Woods Bar and Restaurant, a charming pub on the edge of Exmoor. Take a seat by the open log fire and sample the best of French-influenced British cuisine, using local West Country ingredients. The Bridge Inn is also in Dulverton (around 7 minutes drive from site), overlooking the River Barle, and offers cask ales and classic pub grub.
