Discover Lynton’s Clifftop Views and Exmoor Coastline

Lynton stands high above the North Devon coast, with views across the Bristol Channel and the surrounding Exmoor countryside. The town has traditional cottages, coastal holiday homes and properties with sea views, along with independent shops, cafés and restaurants. The nearby Valley of Rocks and South West Coast Path offer some of the area’s best coastal walks.

 

Lynton Cliff Railway, Lynmouth Harbour and Coastal Walks

The historic Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway connects the two towns, carrying passengers down a steep hillside to Lynmouth Harbour. Opened in 1890, the water-powered railway is one of North Devon’s best-known attractions.

Lynmouth has a small harbour, waterfront pubs and a rocky shoreline where the East and West Lyn rivers meet. For accommodation closer to the harbour, explore our collection of seaside cottages in Lynmouth.

The South West Coast Path runs west from Lynton towards the Valley of Rocks, passing dramatic rock formations and steep cliffs overlooking the sea. The valley is also known for its resident feral goats.

 

Exmoor National Park, Watersmeet and Nearby Attractions

Lynton has several independent shops, cafés and galleries, along with the Lyn and Exmoor Museum, which explores the area’s local history.

Nearby Watersmeet is a popular walking destination where two rivers meet in a wooded gorge. The National Trust manages the surrounding woodland, with riverside paths and a tea room at Watersmeet House.

Further west, Combe Martin has a sheltered bay, rock pools and a small village centre. Browse our selection of coastal holiday homes in Combe Martin if you’re considering another North Devon destination.
