The nearby bustling market town of Honiton is well served with shops, restaurants, sports centre and hospital, as well as a main line rail station to London Waterloo. To the south, the Jurassic Coast World Heritage site features the popular resort of Lyme Regis with its famous Cobb and sandy beach, as well as the picturesque resorts of Branscombe and Sidmouth. Whilst surrounded by beautiful countryside there are good road connections both east and west with the A30 (3 miles away) providing access to the Cathedral city of Exeter with its excellent shopping, leisure facilities, international airport as well as the A303 London trunk route.
