The town lies on the eastern side of the Taw Valley and is well served by the A377 and the Tarka line that runs between Exeter and Barnstaple with both Kings Nympton and Eggesford Railway Stations within easy reach.

The larger towns of Tiverton (20 miles) and Barnstaple (22 miles) both have a choice of large supermarkets, a hospital and a wide range of shops together with schools for all ages whilst the Cathedral City of Exeter is 24 miles to the south. The sandy beaches on North Devon's coastline at Saunton, Croyde and Putsborough are within easy reach as are both Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks.
Description - The Old Farmhouse, as its name suggests, was historically the original farmhouse to Thurle Farm but with with a new farmhouse having been on the site around the mid-19th Century it was then used as a barn.
