Situation
Okehampton is a significant, historic market town situated in West Devon, uniquely positioned on the northern edge of Dartmoor National Park. The town lies in a sheltered valley at the confluence of the East and West Okement Rivers, granting it immediate access to the high moorland landscape, including the region's highest point, High Willhays. Dating back to the Saxon era, the town’s growth centred around the Norman-era Okehampton Castle ruins. Today, it retains its rural character, thriving as a local commercial centre and a major base for visitors, walkers, and cyclists exploring Dartmoor.
Location
The town's modern accessibility is excellent, primarily due to its strategic location just off the A30 dual carriageway. This major trunk road provides a direct, high-speed connection eastward to the city of Exeter (approximately 23 miles/37 km) and the M5 motorway, and westward into Cornwall. Furthermore, the Dartmoor Line rail service, reopened in 2021, connects the fully operational Okehampton Railway Station to Exeter St Davids, offering an hourly service and making the regional hub accessible within about 40 minutes. Efficient road and rail connectivity makes Okehampton a key gateway town
