Kennerleigh is a village truly undisturbed by modernisation, sitting in an exquisite and rural part of Devon, on the verges of a shady, forested valley. It lies on the road to Black Dog and Thelbridge, 4 miles north of the market town of Crediton. Kennerleigh has a traditional style village shop/ post office – that stocks a diverse range of items and local produce. In addition, it features a wonderful example of a Norman church. A short drive away finds the larger village of Sandford, and one of finest pubs in the county; The Lamb Inn – with many accolades, mouth watering food and ales (and an open fire with the odd Jack Russell trotting about). For a modern selection of facilities Crediton is the place, with superb schools (both primary and secondary), a regular farmers market, a leisure centre, a host of interesting shops and two supermarkets.

Directions: For Sat-Nav use EX17 4RS, in the centre of the village, turn up the lane by the shop & Garden Cottage is found on your right.
