Summary

Today we explore the moorelands of Exmoor National Park. From rolling hills, wild ponies, and beautiful cliff side towns, this is a place to add to your bucket list. While it is beautiful, it is also the home of one of the spookiest castles in England. We're taking a deep dive into all the ghostly happenings and terrifying history before we head out to the hill side for a good ole' British Afternoon Tea.
