The Coleridge Way

The Coleridge Way covers some 51 miles through the stunning Somerset countryside of the Quantock Hills, the Brendon Hills and Exmoor. It is a landscape that inspired the Romantic poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge to produce some of his best known work.

At Lynmouth the path links with the South West Coast Path National Trail. A delightful 30 mile circular walk can be made by walking from Porlock on the Coleridge Way to Lynmouth and returning along the coast path.

You will travel through a variety of landscapes: heathland, moorland, deciduous & coniferous woodland, farmland, deeply wooded valleys and historic villages with expansive views over the coast towards Wales. Most villages along the route have at least one pub to provide you with welcome refreshment. There are also a number of delightful tea rooms and village shops to visit.
