Okehampton,
a market town with its roots in Saxon times, is
set the northernmost tip of Dartmoor high in the
Devon countryside and at the very centre of the
south west peninsula. Surrounded by the unspoilt
expanse of Dartmoor National Park to the south
and rolling farmland to the north, the town is
fortunately placed being less than 20 miles drive
from the heart of the city of Exeter with all
its associated commercial and leisure facilities
as well as major road, rail and air links.
Okehampton
can boast of an extremely good cross section of
local amenities. The selection of shops is excellent
and includes a new Waitrose supermarket as well
as the usual range of both national names and
independent family firms. Dartmoor has a considerable
influence on the town especially with regard to
sporting and leisure activities, providing both
scenery and countryside for family enjoyment as
well as a challenge for the most experienced hill
walker, being the starting point for the famous
Ten tors route.
With its position within the country, Okehampton is within easy reach of both the north and south coasts of Cornwall as well as the picturesque Exmoor National Park and north Devon coast.
