“Moorlands in Parracombe offers a genuinely tranquil escape, with its well-tended gardens providing a peaceful backdrop that is quite rare. What sets it apart, however, is the direct garden access to the Woody Bay Steam Train Station, a charming and easily reachable attraction. This, combined with the warm welcome from hosts Daisy and Mark, makes for a deeply pleasant and convenient stay.”
