Situation

Woodbury Parish, which includes the villages of Woodbury, Woodbury Salterton and Exton, is one of the largest parishes in Devon. It encompasses much of Woodbury Common, an outstanding area of natural beauty and enjoys a thriving community spirit rooted in the church and chapel, in the school and in agriculture.

In days past, the parish was frequented by Sir Francis Drake and there is a chapel dedicated to his memory at St Swithins in the village centre.

Some of the facilities of the village include two excellent public houses, a village store and post office, doctor's surgery, nearby golf club and leisure facilities at Woodbury Park and a bus service operating between Exmouth and Exeter, being only minutes away. Close proximity to RD&E, Met Office and University.

Directions

From Exeter, proceed on the A376 Exmouth Road. At the Clyst St George roundabout, turn left onto the B3179 signposted Budleigh and Woodbury. Continue along and as you descend towards the village, and on reaching the Woodbury junction turn right. Continue out of the village for a short distance where the property can be found on your left.
