Lapford is a large village, beyond Morchard Road on the A377 – 9 miles from Crediton and 16 miles from the City of Exeter. Like most Devon parishes, it’s not far from a lovely collection of trees – Eggesford Forest is just up the way, a regal coniferous plantation that plays host to variety of creatures including adders, butterflies, buzzards and woodpeckers (and badgers!). The village itself has a primary school with an excellent Ofsted report, sizeable playing fields (with a football pitch and kid-friendly playground) and a busy pub – The Old Malt Scoop Inn, once a 16th Century coaching inn – which now offers an à la carte dining experience, using only the best local produce.



Directions : From Crediton take the A377 in a westerly direction. Go through the village of Copplestone and Morchard Road and Lapford will be the next village along. Take a right up through the village and after the pub fork right onto Eastington Lane, go around the right hand bend and Lower Meadows will be the first bungalow you find on your right.
