Here's some summertime news from the Exmoor Holiday Group http://www.exmoor-holidays.co.uk/
Tortie Eveleigh at West Ilkerton Farm says that her Exmoor ponies have four foals so far: three colts and a filly. The Eveleighs are providing Landrover Discovery Tours round their farm this year. The tours take about 1 1/2 hours and are entirely off-road. Visitors will see North Devon cattle and their calves, Exmoor Horn sheep and their lambs and (of course) the Exmoor ponies and their foals. Another highlight for many visitors is meeting Basil the Shire horse, who is enjoying a well-earned retirement. For further details please see http://www.westilkerton.co.uk/


Sheila Gibbs at Wick House http://www.wickhouse.co.uk/ says that on Saturday 28th June there is a 'Foray into Faure' concert in St Mary's Church, Stogumber at 7.30pm.
Works will include Faure's Requiem and his Cantique de Jean Racine, Mozart's Laudate Dominium, and orchestral pieces by Walton and Delius.
Soloists Keith Jones and Jackie Butterworth
Tickets £10 (include refreshments) available from the Central Stores and the Old Vicarage, Stogumber (01984) 656634

Joan Atkins, who owns Stilemoor http://www.stilemoorexmoor.co.uk/ has been busy refurbishing the kitchen. It now has a dishwasher, larder fridge and electric cooker. A new patio area is nearly finished in the garden, so that guests can walk out through the French windows in the dining room and sit outside in good weather.
