Famous for having the longest row of thatched, terraced cottages in England, Morchard is a popular village not least because of its C of E primary school (OFSTED Good), excellent pub, doctor’s surgery, and community run shop. There’s a thriving community scene offering a variety of events and activities ranging from the monthly produce market to sporting clubs. Nearby is Morchard Road where you can catch a train on the scenic Tarka Line to Barnstaple or Exeter. For a wider range of shops and amenities Crediton and Exeter are 7-miles and 15-miles away respectively. A regular daily bus service from the village also provides access to both these towns.
