CLEARBROOK

Clearbrook is a charming and quietly positioned hamlet on the south-western fringe of Dartmoor, within the parish of Buckland Monachorum in West Devon. Officially described by the Ordnance Survey as a “scattered hamlet,” it enjoys a wonderfully rural setting in the picturesque valley of the River Meavy, just south of Yelverton. Despite its proximity to historic transport routes and former industrial activity, the village has retained a peaceful, unspoilt character. Today it is particularly appealing to those seeking access to open moorland, with excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and riding right on the doorstep, alongside a scenic cycle route connecting to Plymouth and surrounding areas.

Historically, Clearbrook developed gradually during the mid-19th century, with early links to mining and agriculture, though it never became defined by any single industry. Its name is thought to derive from “Clearbrook Field,” referencing a small, unpolluted stream that borders the area. 

Today, Clearbrook remains a sought-after residential location, offering a blend of period character and modern rural living. The village is home to The Skylark pub, well regarded for its welcoming atmosphere and views across the moor, as well as a recently rebuilt community village hall. With a strong sense of community, a predominantly owner-occupied housing stock, and a setting that balances seclusion with accessibility, Clearbrook continues to appeal to buyers looking for a peaceful Dartmoor lifestyle within reach of Plymouth.
