There are many different events on Exmoor throughout the year, from cultural to sporting, but one of the beauties of Exmoor is that it never seems crowded - you don't have to go very far at all to escape. So don't be put off by the thought that there may be hordes of people everywhere; there's plenty of room for everybody.
