The village and civil parish of Hawkchurch sits in the eastern extremity of the East Devon district in Devon, England, close to the county boundary with Dorset. Perched among rolling farmland and orchards, it offers a rural landscape of stone cottages, hedgerows and quiet lanes, with easy access for coastal walks towards the Jurassic Coast.
Historically agricultural, the local economy now mixes farming with tourism and commuting to nearby centres such as Axminster and the seaside town of Lyme Regis. The parish retains a village hall, a historic parish church and a pub, and is valued for its peaceful atmosphere, attractive walking country and links to the south‑coast visitor economy.
