Lime Field South, Pathfields Business Park, South Molton

LOCATION
Known as the ‘Gateway to Exmoor’, South Molton is a traditional market town set in beautiful countryside and not far from North Devon’s beaches – yet it is also just 25 miles from the M5 via the main A361, and around 45 minutes from the airport at Exeter. South Molton’s resident population of 6,000 (including nearby villages) will soon be expanded thanks to the imminent 1,200 new houses outlined on the Local Plan, and will continue to be joined by visitors attracted to the town’s traditional centre and wide range of independent businesses. The notable towns of Barnstaple (11 miles), Bideford (20 miles), Ilfracombe (25 miles), Tiverton (19 miles) and Torrington (18 miles) are also nearby.
