Website

Situated between Dartmoor and Exmoor, and only seven miles from the city of Exeter. This attractive and historic market town is surrounded by rolling hills and wooded valleys. It has a landscape of rich red earth, which is typical of Devon.

Crediton was the birthplace of St. Boniface in 680AD, one of the first Christian missionaries who went to northern Europe. The town became the first Bishopric of Devon and Cornwall and the site of a beautiful cathedral like church, which still dominates the town today.

As well as having a thriving farmers market, Crediton High Street has many local independent retailers, which provide a refreshing antidote to the sameness of most modern towns.
