Beautiful places hide dark secrets… Known as England’s ‘Little Switzerland’, the Exmoor village of Lynmouth is located on the doorstep of the dramatic Valley of The Rocks. Famous for its cliff railway and breath-taking scenery, Lynmouth has inspired many writers, including RD Blackmore’s Lorna Doone and 19th Century poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, who honeymooned there in 1812.
