Tiverton, a large town just four miles away offers some interesting places in amongst the hustle and bustle of everyday life, including Tiverton Museum of Mid Devon Life, which is one of the largest social history museums in the south west. Lurley is located only 10 miles from the rolling wild green hills of Exmoor, where you will find stags, streams and breath-taking scenery, along with the town of Dulverton and Dunster village.

Good value for money. Good sized property for the money. Owners on-site meaning that if you need anything it is sorted quickly. They were very welcoming.Excellent location. Near to the facilities of Tiverton, but very much a rural location.I would stay again
