Lynmouth is a beautiful village located in Devon, England and situated at the northern edge of Exmoor National Park. This intriguing village is actually in a gorge 500 feet below the town of Lynton, straddling the East and West Lyn confluence. Due to the picturesque scenery found in this vicinity, the entire area has been dubbed as England's "Little Switzerland". It is a must see for all visitors, but is most appreciated by photographers and painters.
The array of bracken laden valleys and tumbling waterfalls make for ideal artistic inspiration, not to mention the abundance of wildlife. For visitors wishing to do more than just admire the beauty of the area, there is always a chance to go hang-gliding, paragliding, or for a stroll along the easily accessible trails.
National walking trails in this area pass through the South West Coast Path and The Two moors Way. From a short walk to a long distance hike, both are options in Lynmouth.
The lapping water on the shore of Lynmouth Bay can be relaxing, while going for a walk on the beach. During the beach walk, while enjoying the bay, the lighthouse and smugglers caves can be visited. There is also bird viewing of the local nesting seabirds on the breathtaking cliffs or fishing for mackerel, pollack, and bass in this harbor. Surfing in the bay is an option for those wishing to put some distance between themselves and land.
This romantic retreat is an ideal get-away for any couple looking to make memories to last a lifetime, as well as adventure seekers. The local fishing cottages and Rhenish tower make the perfect backdrop for priceless pictures to put in the holiday scrapbook. This portion of Exmoor National Park is the ultimate destination for relaxation and stunning landscapes. Lynmouth is sure to be a delight for all who visit.
