Beech Park Farm

The Setting
There can be few homes that come to the market within the Exmoor National Park that offer a better balance of private home as well as equestrian facilities. There are perhaps even fewer homes that offer such a convenient location balanced with a high degree of privacy and a short distance onto some of the very finest open moorland walking and riding within the whole of the National Park.

The Exmoor market town of Dulverton offers a wide range of independent shops, stores, farmers’ market, renowned restaurants and pubs (popular with locals and visitors alike). Local amenities including primary school, doctors, dentist, vets, pharmacy, beauty spa, and sports facilities including a cricket club, tennis and squash courts. Larger supermarkets and town facilities can be found at Tiverton or Minehead. Access to the M5 and National Rail links are circa 20 miles South East with direct train links to London Paddington taking around 2 hours.

Exmoor National Park
For those keen on country pursuits and sporting activities, Exmoor is one of the smallest National Parks (267 square miles) but arguably one of the most attractive, offering such a variety of scenery from high heather-clad moorland, deep wooded river valleys to the breathtaking coastline boasting the highest marine cliffs in England and of course Exmoor’s famous amazing Dark Skies, which can be admired from the grounds of the property.
