Situation

Due to retirement the highly renowned village shop/post office recently closed but a community shop is in the process of being set up. North Molton is easily accessible to the A361 North Devon link road which provides a direct route to the regional centre of Barnstaple to the west and Tiverton to the south east and further on to the M5 (J 27) with Tiverton Parkway railway station on the Paddington line. The market town of South Molton is three miles and offers a good range of social, shopping and banking facilities and further schooling to secondary level.

The boundary of Exmoor National Park is about 1.5 miles from the property and the renowned North Devon coastline and some of the best beaches in the country at Croyde, Saunton Sands and Woolacombe is also within easy reach by car.
