Mid Devon contains the sizeable village of Morchard Bishop. It is a relatively tranquil village about 10 miles from Crediton located amid breathtaking rural scenery. The longest single spine of connected thatched houses from the 16th and 17th centuries in England runs across the centre of the village. There are several beautiful local walks that surround the village, and the village itself is actually a crucial section of the Two Moors Way, a path that connects Exmoor to the south with Dartmoor to the north. Other fantastic options for walking and horseback riding can be found at Dartmoor National Park. There are other additional dispersed settlements near Morchard Bishop with warm inns, well-stocked farm stores, tea shops serving Devon cream teas, and amiable locals. Morchard Bishop is 10 miles from the market town of Crediton. It features a large selection of quaint local stores offering presents and groceries, a mega market, and all the customary amenities including hair salons, book stores, health food stores, and a small hospital.

  • Matthew

    The place was so secluded and peaceful with a wonderful view from the hot tub. The place itself was convenient, clean and welcoming. Amanda is a gem and provided everything we needed. My wife is already speaking about another stay. Thank you again!

  • Carrie-anne

    The surrounding area was beautiful. Amanda has thought of everything you need for the perfect get away. The village pub was easy to locate for lunch. The hut was clean and very homely. We’re already talking of booking again. Highly recommended.
