The Pony Stalls has a private garden with table and chairs provided. It’s a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the view over the fields to Wimbleball Lake. There is ample parking on the drive beside the cottage for four cars.

It is a remotely beautiful and rural location, accessed via a quiet country road used mainly by farm traffic and machinery, yet only 3 miles from a main road with easy access to the M5 at either Taunton or Tiverton within 40 minutes. The owners live on the farm nearby.

The Pony Stalls is approx. One mile from Brompton Regis, a small, rural village in a quiet location on the eastern side of Exmoor National Park. It was once a market ‘town’ and one of the largest in the area, divided into Highertown and Lowertown.

The parish extends from the Haddeo Valley up to the ridge of the Brendon Hills. It includes Wimbleball Lake, a reservoir that can store more than 21,000 megalitres of water and offers all kinds of water-based activities, and the hamlets of Withiel Florey, Bury, Gupworthy, and Hartford.

The village pub is in the centre of the village. The George, a traditional 16th-century village free house Inn, serves meals and drinks and is family-friendly. The community-run village shop is located in the village hall, stocking essentials.

Dulverton is approx. 5 miles from Brompton Regis and is known as the southern gateway to Exmoor. It’s a pretty, small town with a butcher, Post Office, fish & chip shop, greengrocer, late-opening supermarket, art gallery, hairdressers, guns and fishing tackle shop. There are several quality boutiques, interesting gift shops, and a handful of lovely restaurants, tea rooms, and pubs.

Wheddon Cross is around 6 miles away and has a mini-supermarket with long opening hours, a petrol station and a village pub. Dunkery Beacon (1704 feet above sea level) is three miles from the village. There are fantastic panoramic views from Dunkery: wild moorland to the west, the Bristol Channel and Wales to the north, the rolling Brendon Hills to the east and the Quarme Valley to the south. In recent years, Wheddon Cross has become famous for the abundance of snowdrops in the nearby valley known as ‘Snowdrop Valley’. The snowdrops bloom around February, and a park-and-ride system operates from the village to enable visitors easy access to the “carpet of snowdrops”.
