Here there is a Tesco superstore, Cawthorne’s family store, a good number of restaurants, primary and secondary schools and coffee shops.

The bus route continues to Barnstaple, the principle north Devon town, a further 5 miles to the south east. This caters well for the area with the brand new Tarka Leisure Centre, Tarka Tennis Centre, Scott’s cinema and The Queen’s Theatre. There is access on to the North Devon Link Road which offers an easy drive to the M5 motorway at junction 27. The Tarka rail line takes you to Exeter which then picks up a direct line to London Paddington..
