There are a wide range of activities available including opportunities for walking, cycling, fishing at the local Kennick Reservoir, riding, and other country sports within Dartmoor National Park.

The Princesshay Shopping Centre also offers a wide range of café’s, shops, bars and restaurants and further dining options can be found at the historic quayside. Beadon Farm Beadon Farm is a wonderful property set within approximately 62 acres of stunning countryside. It is not listed and has no public footpaths, a rarity in this part of Dartmoor. The farmhouse is south facing and sits within a courtyard of traditional and modern buildings creating a sense of privacy and seclusion. The grounds comprise a mixture of formal gardens, pasture and woodland, providing the property with great tranquillity and protection. The accommodation is bright and welcoming. Immediately noticeable on entrance to the house is the immaculate presentation and impressive proportions. The layout flows extremely well and lends itself perfectly as a family home with plenty of space for entertaining. The kitchen has been recently installed and now forms the heart of the home with bespoke units, an electric AGA and space for a large dining table as well as a double aspect that ensures an abundance of natural light. There are some fantastic original features throughout the house, including impressive granite fireplaces in the dining room and drawing room. The principal reception rooms are accessed from the inner hall and the drawing room is of particularly impressive proportions and ideal for entertaining with superb views over the grounds to the west of the house. The dining room, with its impressive granite fireplace and space for a large table is opposite the snug, which links to the kitchen, creating a seamless flow in the ground floor accommodation. To the rear of the house is a large utility room, which is an ample size for a family home. The immaculate presentation continues to the first floor where there are five well-appointed bedrooms. The master and guest suites have their own beautifully finished bathrooms, whilst the three further bedrooms are serviced by a well-appointed family bathroom.

The proposed development, by reason of the degree of independance and physical separation from Withill Farmhouse, would be tantamount to the creation of an unjustified dwelling in the open countryside contrary to the Dartmoor National Park Core Strategy Development Plan Document in particular policies COR2 and COR15, the Development Management and Delivery Development Plan Document in particular policies DMD23 and DMD25 and the advice contained in the English National Parks and the Broads UK Government Vision and Circular 2010 and National Planning Policy Framework 2012. 2. The proposal would result in holiday accommodation in a building outside a recognised settlement which is not in association with an acceptable farm diversification scheme contrary to the Dartmoor National Park Core Strategy Development Plan Document in particular policies COR2, COR18, COR19 and COR20, policies DMD9, DMD35 and DMD44 of the Development Management and Delivery Development Plan Document and the advice contained in the National Planning Policy Framework 2012.

While some industrial activity, linked to cloth mills, supported its economy, its main work was linked with its role as a staging post on the Exeter-Plymouth turnpike road.

  • Devon Protestation Oaths

    Devon Protestation Oaths

    Mortimers of Devon in the 1642 Protestation Oath Lists Research suggests that the Mortimers first settled in Devon in the 15th century or earlier. By 1523, the name had spread to 16 parishes and just 20 years later that number had grown to 19. By 1600, several branches of the Mortimer family had established themselves in Exeter, Devon’s capital. Over the following centuries Mortimers continued to move to Exeter. By the time of the first census in 1841, 87 Mortimers lived in Devon’s capital, out of 866 Mortimers who called Devon their home, more than any other county except Yorkshire. This document is intended to be a useful resource for genealogists but also Mortimer one name researchers. The history of the Devon Mortimer family is of interest due to their inheritance of a medieval name of great note during the middle ages, the Mortimer family of Wigmore being one of the great dynastic families of the age. Edmund Mortimer and Philippa Plantaganet, Countess of Ulster married in 1368 in Reading Abbey, with Edward IV, a great grandson of the above couple successfully claiming the throne for the house of York during the Wars of the Roses. The long line of Mortimer of Wigmore became extinct upon the death of young Earl Edmund Mortimer in 1425, but other branches survived, including Hugh Mortimer, who died fighting on the Lancastrian side in the Battle of Wakefield, 1460. One branch that survived past 1400 is of particular interest to Mortimer family researchers, the Mortimers of Attleborough, who were prosperous during the Late Middle Ages but then faded into obscurity after 1387, when most of the Mortimer estates were inherited by female co-heirs.
