Springtime adventures on the Exmoor coast.
Easter is a wonderful time to visit our twin towns — when the moors turn green again, wildflowers burst into life and the sea sparkles under soft spring sunshine. From family egg hunts and craft fairs to gentle walks and cosy cafés, Lynton & Lynmouth make Easter feel like a proper holiday again — unhurried, friendly, and full of small delights.
Family Fun & Local Traditions
The whole area buzzes with Easter energy. Follow the children’s egg hunts through woodland paths and riverside trails, explore local markets filled with handmade gifts and Devon treats, or ride the Cliff Railway for a front-row view of spring on Exmoor.
Spring on the Coast
Take to the Valley of Rocks, where goats roam against bright green cliffs, or wander the South West Coast Path as seabirds nest and the wildflowers bloom. It’s the perfect season for picnics, photography and peaceful moments above the waves.
Food, Fire & Festivities
After your adventures, settle into one of our cafés, pubs or bistros for Easter lunch or a slice of something sweet. Many serve seasonal menus with local lamb, Exmoor ales and freshly baked hot-cross buns.
Pubs & Restaurants
Local cuisine is a highlight of any visit, with menus brimming with fresh, locally-sourced produce. Indulge in traditional cream teas, hearty pub meals, and various seasonal delights.
Places to Stay
After a day filled with adventure, there is a range of charming accommodations to choose from, including quaint cottages, seaside hotels, and welcoming bed-and-breakfasts, ensuring a cosy and restful stay.
