A small three-room guest stay in Wheddon Cross, Somerset, suited to walkers and riders exploring Exmoor National Park at a slow pace.
About Red Deer Cottage
Red Deer Cottage suits travellers after a quiet base for exploring Exmoor rather than a full-service hotel experience. With just three rooms, it has the feel of a small, unfussy guesthouse in Wheddon Cross, and it works particularly well for walkers, riders and anyone keen to spend their days outdoors before retreating somewhere calm in the evening.
Rooms come with a kitchen and drinks provided, giving guests the option to self-cater or simply relax without relying on set mealtimes. There's a garden to sit out in, a gym on-site for those wanting to keep up a routine, and 24 hour reception for flexible arrivals. Free on-site parking is available immediately outside the property, which is useful given the rural setting. Pets are welcome, so it suits those travelling with dogs as much as walkers heading straight onto the moor.
The surrounding area caters well to outdoor pursuits, with horse riding and fishing nearby, plus a network of walking routes right on the doorstep. A pub, bar and restaurant nearby cover evening meals without needing to travel far. It's a straightforward, practical base for getting into Exmoor National Park rather than a destination in its own right.
