Directions by car

Leave the M5 at Junction 27 (Tiverton), and take the A361 towards Barnstaple. At the North Aller Roundabout just after South Molton, turn right onto the A399, signed Lynton. At Blackmoor Gate, turn right onto the A39 and continue following signs to Lynton. On entering Lynton, you will come down a steep hill and round a tight right-hand hairpin bend. After this, follow the road left and then at the end turn left again (both turnings signed “Valley of Rocks”). The road will go out of the village into a dramatic coastal valley. About 1 mile after leaving Lynton, you will enter the Lee Abbey estate, and then the main entrance is signposted on the right hand side.
