Description

LOCATION

Waterrow is a small village in Somerset, in the beautiful countryside on the borders of Somerset and Devon, with Exmoor National Park a stone's throw away.

The local towns of Wellington and Dulverton are 8.9 miles (23 minutes) via the B3187 and 11.2 miles (22 minutes) via the B3227 and B3222 respectively.

The Rock Inn is positioned on a main road within a wooded valley and adjacent to a bridge with the River Tone flowing beneath, an idyllic setting close to Exmoor National Park. It is surrounded by countryside yet within 3 miles of the town of Wiveliscombe. The beaches of the north and south coasts of the West Country are within easy reach and further west the wide open expanse of Dartmoor.
