South Tawton is a charming village nestled on the northern edge of Dartmoor National Park, surrounded by scenic countryside and offering a peaceful rural lifestyle. Rich in history, the village is home to the Grade II* listed Church House, a medieval community building that has been in continuous use for over 500 years. This historic structure, with its thatched roof and cruck trusses, is one of the village's key attractions and is located near the stunning St Andrew's Church.
Although South Tawton is small, it benefits from a close-knit community and its proximity to larger settlements like Okehampton, which provides access to a range of amenities. The village is well-positioned for outdoor enthusiasts, lying along several walking trails, including the Tarka Trail, which links to wider routes such as the Archangel’s Way.

South Tawton's serene atmosphere, rich heritage, and access to Dartmoor make it an ideal location for those seeking a quieter lifestyle while still being within reach of the vibrant market town of Okehampton.
