Having had the pleasure of hiking for a week in Exmoor, I can assure you that I saw and felt precious little in the way of flies and no mosquitoes. Although there were ticks as my mum found out.
All of the Brits that heard me remark in amazement at the lack of mosquitoes (which, as a Canadian, I expected in hordes) or black flies (which they call midges) assured me that there weren't many to begin with in the case of the former and that I should seek out the latter in Scotland if I missed them that much. o.O
