Brushford in Somerset is a small rural village tucked on the western edge of Exmoor, close to the Devon border and neighbouring market towns such as Dulverton. Set in a wooded river valley, it makes a quiet base for walkers and anglers exploring the moor and surrounding lanes, and features the kind of stone cottages and hedged lanes typical of the area.
The village has long agricultural roots and today combines farming with a modest tourism trade - holiday cottages, B&Bs and local events that draw visitors in summer. There are historic touches in the built fabric and local parish life, and a small, close-knit community that keeps village traditions and seasonal gatherings alive.
