The Dulverton Exmoor Literary Festival

About The Dulverton Exmoor Literary Festival

The Dulverton Exmoor Literary Festival brings well-known authors to this small town on the edge of Exmoor for a long weekend of talks, readings and conversation each November. Its programme has featured writers such as Michael Morpurgo, Jonathan Dimbleby, Patrick Gale and Rachel Hore, pairing big names with a relaxed, small-town welcome.

Events are spread around the town, from the Town Hall and All Saints' Church to the Heritage Centre, the library and The Bridge Inn, with a literary lunch at Tarr Farm Inn. There is poetry by the fire and a children's story corner, so it suits families as well as keen readers, and the moorland setting suits an autumn break.
