Situation & Amenities

To the north of Bittaford is the atmospheric and exclusive Moorhaven Village. The buildings, mostly Victorian, were once a hospital but in the 1990s were transformed into around one hundred homes set in 65 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. The elevated position offers incredible views of Dartmoor National Park to the north, and the stunning countryside of the South Hams to the south. On a clear day you can even see the sea seven miles away.
The adjacent and historic village of Bittaford nestles under the local landmark viaduct and is bordered by the Dartmoor National Park. Offering superb transport links, the village sits on the edge of the B3213 and access to the A38 to Exeter or Plymouth is within easy reach with regular bus services. The nearby train station in Ivybridge offers the picturesque Paddington – Penzance line as well.
Bittaford offers a pub, village hall and children’s play area and is a great starting point for many walking and cycling routes. It is ideally situated to benefit from many surrounding amenities as well as the natural environment on its doorstep. Alongside the bus/train provision, a continuous footpath will take you all the way from the village into Ivybridge which is approximately a 2-mile gentle stroll alongside the stunning South Hams views.
Ivybridge is a family-orientated town with a rich heritage of traditional industries such as milling and cloth making that are still celebrated today. With the pretty River Erme flowing from the moors through the middle of the town, Ivybridge offers adventure. The idyllic countryside and moorland offer miles of magnificent walking trails out of the town, whilst in the town itself you’ll find pubs, eateries and a variety of shops and supermarkets. There is a good choice of primary schools in the area including the nearby village of Ugborough, and all within the catchment of the renowned Ivybridge Community College with its World Class Quality Mark Award. Ivybridge offers several places of worship with noteworthy histories, together with two medical centres, a minor injuries unit, several dentists, two leisure centres with swimming pools, fitness suites, and various health classes. The charming Watermark with its welcoming library, IT suite, cinema, theatre, coffee shop and conference facilities as well as the ever-popular Ivybridge Rugby, Football, Cricket, and Tennis clubs all add to the community focus of the town.
