About

Hatherleigh, Exbourne and North Tawton lie in West Devon on the northern fringe of Dartmoor. The area is built around small rivers and working farmland: Hatherleigh sits beside the River Lew and North Tawton alongside the River Taw. Hatherleigh retains its market-town role and stages an annual agricultural show that draws livestock exhibitors and local traders. Exbourne is a village hub with a village hall, village green and lanes that link farms and cottages across rolling fields.

Local life revolves around agriculture, small shops, village halls and primary schools, with footpaths and bridleways used for short walks from each settlement. Stone-built bridges and old lanes reflect centuries of rural settlement, while community events and markets provide regular meeting points. Connections by minor roads keep the three places close together for services and local trade without relying on larger towns.
