The Lynton & Lynmouth Cliff Railway is a super cool water-powered railway that's been chugging along since 1890. It's the highest and steepest of its kind in the world, connecting the charming towns of Lynton and Lynmouth with epic coastal views. Plus, they've got a lovely Cliff Top Cafe perched on the cliff top serving up killer Cream Teas with a side of stunning Exmoor coastline views. It's basically a must-do if you're in the area for some old-school funicular action and awesome scenery.

Adult fare is £3.50, children are £2.20 and dogs on leads are £1.
