Okehampton is a vibrant and historic town located in West Devon, England. Known as the "Gateway to Dartmoor," it boasts a rich history dating back to the Domesday Book, where it was referred to as Ochehametone. The town is situated on the northern edge of Dartmoor, a beautiful national park and an area of outstanding natural beauty. Okehampton has a compelling blend of old and new, from the ruins of Okehampton Castle, which dates back to the Norman period, to contemporary shops and eateries that reflect a modern country town. The picturesque River Okement runs through the town, adding to its charm.
Okehampton's location makes it a perfect hub for exploring a number of towns, villages, and attractions in the surrounding area. To the east, you'll find the market town of Crediton, renowned for its rich agricultural history and the Crediton Parish Church, a grand structure with a 500-year-old history. A short drive south leads you to Tavistock, a World Heritage Site due to its historic links to the tin mining industry. To the north lies the charming village of Hatherleigh, known for its arts and crafts and weekly market. The villages of Belstone, Sticklepath, and South Zeal are located directly on Dartmoor and are perfect for those who enjoy outdoor activities such as walking, cycling, and horseback riding. A bit farther afield, the city of Exeter, with its stunning cathedral, numerous shopping opportunities, and vibrant nightlife, is easily accessible for a day trip.
