The Location
Ipplepen is a large and charmingly attractive village with a vibrant community. It is built high on a limestone plateau overlooking the open countryside below.
Local amenities include a primary school, numerous local shops, a butcher and florist, three delightful country pubs, a bowling club, two churches, a post office, a garden centre, a health centre, and a popular community centre.
To the North-West lies Newton Abbot, a historic market town set on the banks of the River Teign. The market tradition is one Newton Abbot continues, with famous indoor and outdoor markets stocking local produce almost every day of the week.
Journeying through the rolling green hills of Devon, Newton Abbot is 10 minutes by car, Torquay 20 minutes, and the city of Exeter only 30 minutes away. From Exeter, with its delightful Quay and riverside, shopping opportunities, and international airport, regular trains to London take just over two hours. Bristol and Plymouth are one hour away by rail.
From your front door in Ipplepen, the unspoiled wilds of Dartmoor National Park and the fresh sea air of the South Coast are 20 minutes by road in either direction.
