Walking and riding
Lea Hill Cottages are set among a network of bridleways and footpaths
wandering through some of the most attractive country in the whole of
England. A perfect place for off-road walking and riding with livery
available locally by arrangement. Easily reached starting points give
access to the famous South West Coast Path walk along the coastline of
Dorset and Devon with public transport pick ups to return you to your
starting point. (Details in our 'green file' kept on site.)
Day trips by train
Axminster railway station provides car parking and easy access to the
South West Trains system of routes to places such as Salisbury and
Exeter for easy day trips. You'll be surprised at how simple it is to
make these journeys through the attractive countryside and historic
towns of Devon, Somerset and Dorset.
