MORE ABOUT EMMETTS

Emmetts on Exmoor is a private agricultural and moorland estate and at 1250 feet, it is the highest farm on the moor. Emmetts sits within the curtilage of the ancient village of Simonsbath (TA24 7LD) and is very easily accessible from the A361 North Devon Link Road. 

There are a total of 18 stables onsite which are split between the traditional courtyard at the rear of the main house and a state of the art livery yard (developed in 2020) with 12 Monarch stables within an American style barn adjacent to the indoor arena. The indoor arena is 20x60m and features an Andrews Bowen ProWax surface.
