The building 'County Gate' is a pretty grade 2 listed building, an old toll cottage which sits directly on the border of Somerset and Devon and directly above the famous Malmsmead, Oare and Doone valley. An extremely popular beauty spot."

The tea room, called The Rambler's Rest Tea Room, the highest coastal road tea room in Britain, will be also be traditional tea room with a yesteryear ambience.

She added: "Our simplistic menu will feature home made cakes, freshly made sandwiches, local ice creams and much more."

There will also be a small quality gift shop selling souvenirs, local produce and local artisans wares.

Discussing the availability they said:  "We will be open year round and there will be occasional events."

The longest coast path in the world, the South West Coast Path runs past the tea room amongst many other walking routes.

The Adventure By Bus 'Exmoor Coaster' open top tour bus runs hourly between Porlock and Lynmouth and will stop at the tea room.
