Crediton is a lively market town a short drive north-west of Exeter's cathedral city, in a region of Devon known as "Red Devon," so named because of the characteristic red soil that is of great agricultural quality and ideal for growing swedes. This is a rural part in Devon that is peaceful and unspoiled, with ruby cattle grazing among the rolling green meadows. There are several dispersed towns with warm inns, well-stocked farm stores, and inviting residents.
