SITUATION
Chittlehampton is a vibrant village set in the heart of rural North Devon offering local facilities including a village shop, a village Hall, a church, and 'The Bell' public house which is well known locally for serving food all day, every day. The nearby market town of South Molton lies approximately 6 miles to the east and offers a more comprehensive range of facilities including a supermarket, banks, butchers, florist, coffee shops and takeaways, pubs and restaurants and both primary and secondary schools. Road link is via the North Devon Link Road, which can be easily accessed at South Molton. Barnstaple, North Devon's regional centre, and the Cathedral and University City of Exeter both offer the wide range of shopping, amenities and facilities one would expect from the county's principal town and city. Tiverton, the M5 motorway at Junction 27 and Tiverton Parkway station, providing a fast Intercity rail link to London Paddington, are both approximately forty-five minutes drive. There is also an international airport at Exeter.
There are excellent recreational and sporting facilities in the area with a range of Leisure Centres at South Molton, Tiverton, Crediton and Barnstaple, near-by tennis courts and clubs, local rugby, football and cricket clubs, fishing in the rivers Taw and Torridge, further near-by golf courses at Libbaton, High Bullen and Down St Mary, excellent walking and riding in all directions, racecourses at Haldon Exeter and Newton Abbot, and sailing and water sports on North Devon's scenic and rugged coastline, being approximately three-quarters of an hours drive.
