West Luccombe is a peaceful hamlet in the Horner Valley on the National Trust's Holnicote Estate, at the foot of Dunkery Beacon -- Exmoor's highest point at 519 metres. This is one of the quietest corners of Exmoor National Park. The hamlet sits within a working 300-acre National Trust farm and is surrounded by some of the finest walking country in the South West. Horner Woods National Nature Reserve, one of the largest ancient oak woodlands in Britain, begins just minutes from the door. The picturesque thatched village of Luccombe, mentioned in the Domesday Book and recently voted one of England's prettiest villages, is a short stroll away. West Luccombe is a wonderfully quiet base with no pub, shop, or through-traffic. The nearest amenities are in Porlock, approximately one mile away, which has three pubs, two grocery shops, a traditional butcher, chemist, cash machine, hardware shop, visitor centre, and a range of independent restaurants, shops, and tea rooms. Most shops keep hours of 9am to 5pm, often extending during the summer season. Minehead is the nearest town, approximately 6 miles away, with larger supermarkets (Tesco and Morrisons on the outskirts), petrol stations, high street banks, and a range of shops. Burrowhayes Farm, approximately 200 metres down the road, has a small camping shop useful for forgotten items and offers escorted horse riding in the Horner Valley and on the open moorland.
