About

The Clyst, Exton and Lympstone area lies on the north shore of the Exe Estuary in East Devon. The River Clyst reaches the estuary around Exton, feeding saltmarsh and mudflat habitats that extend toward Lympstone quay. Around Clyst St Mary, farmland and hedgerows meet the Clyst floodplain and a network of public footpaths follows field boundaries and the estuary edge. Lympstone still has a working quay and boatyard, and the village sits beside the Royal Marines Commando Training Centre, which operates its own small rail halt used by service personnel and visitors.

Local lanes connect farms, shops and village halls, and the Avocet Line serves the area at Lympstone Commando station. The Exe Estuary Trail runs along the shore, offering walking and cycling routes and views over the tidal flats where waders and wildfowl feed at low tide. Community life revolves around parish churches, seasonal events and small-scale boat maintenance, while agriculture and estuary-based recreation shape the local economy and landscape.
