Exmoor, North Devon and Somerset
North Devon contains a quarter of Exmoor National Park and has a wonderful coastal landscape, with moorland rivers draining to a wild rocky coastline with sandy beaches, attractive harbour towns, rocky headlands and cliffs, and a large estuary.
Somerset as well as being home to the balance of Exmoor National Park is a rural county of rolling hills such as the Mendip Hills and the Quantock Hills Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and large flat expanses of land including the Somerset Levels.

Porlock Marsh - Somerset
Until 1996, Porlock Marsh was protected by an 8000-year-old shingle ridge. Hurricane Lili changed everything, breaching the ridge and starting its rapid evolution into a tidal salt marsh creating a whole new ecosystem, providing habitat for enough rare coastal plants and wildlife to merit making it a Site of Special Scientific Interest in 2002. On the saltmarsh itself, there is a plantation of stunted trees, long dead, raising their bare branches heavenwards like some primitive tribe turned to wood in retribution for some awful wrongdoing.
