Blackmoor Gate Devon Map

About Blackmoor Gate

Blackmoor Gate rests in the embrace of North Devon's rolling landscapes. It lies 9.6 km south-west of Lynton (from Lynton: bearing 228°T, OS grid SS 646 431), and is situated south-west of Parracombe village. The air here often carries the subtle, earthy scent of damp soil and distant woodlands, a testament to its position within a region shaped by ancient geological forces and enduring agricultural traditions. The quietude of Blackmoor Gate is punctuated by the soft bleating of sheep on the surrounding hillsides, a sound as old as the land itself. Sunlight, when it breaks through the frequent Devonshire clouds, can illuminate the rough, grey stone of older dwellings, lending them a momentary warmth against the pervasive green of the hedgerows and fields. This small gathering of homes and farms, deeply rooted in the character of Exmoor's western edge, offers a sense of profound, unhurried peace.
