Huntsham is a peaceful rural hamlet in Mid Devon, set among rolling farmland on the edge of the Exe valley, with Exmoor National Park within easy reach.
This is a small, quiet community of farms and cottages with a timeless feel. The hamlet is home to Huntsham Court, a magnificent Grade I listed Elizabethan manor house now used as a private events venue, and the medieval Church of All Saints. There is no shop or pub in Huntsham itself, but the charming market town of Bampton is just 2 miles to the north, and the larger town of Tiverton is 5 miles to the south.
Bampton (2 miles) is a pretty Devon market town with a good selection of independent shops, a post office, a Co-op convenience store, and several pubs. The town holds a popular weekly street market and is well known for its annual Exmoor Pony Sale and the Devon Petite Fair.
Tiverton (5 miles) is a busy market town with a wide range of shops, supermarkets (Tesco, Lidl, Morrisons), banks, a leisure centre, and the historic Tiverton Pannier Market, which has been trading since 1251. For larger retail needs, Exeter is approximately 25 miles south and offers full city-centre shopping.
