Exbourne is situated amongst rolling typically Devonshire Countryside, which boasts many leisure opportunities such as fishing on the Torridge and walking and cycling on the nearby Tarka Trail. The Dartmoor National Park is easily accessible at Okehampton, whilst there is also comparatively easy access to the North coasts of Devon and Cornwall, with some attractive beaches and delightful coastal scenery.
