Exford is a village famous for hunting, shooting, fishing and riding and is situated on the B3224, the main route East-West across the moor,  The Devon & Somerset Staghounds have had their kennels in Exford since 1875. The houses, newsagent/PO, stores and hotels are grouped around the village green which is very picturesque and has plenty of seats around the perimeter.

There is a magnificent playground for children, installed in 1999 after a very successful fund raising effort by some local parents. At the end of the green is the Crown hotel - one of the most famous hotels on the moor. Opposite is the village school - a classic Victorian school building recently enlarged with locally raised funds.

Along the road is the Exmoor White Horse Inn, a magnificent, creeper clad building which stands next to the bridge over the River Exe. Both these hotels have stable yards for equestrian visitors. Indeed, finding accommodation for your horse in Exford is never a problem and most accommodation providers will be able to help.
