Newton Poppleford is a large village in East Devon, Devon, England, set beside the River Otter between Sidmouth and Ottery St Mary. The riverside location and surrounding rolling countryside give it a distinctly rural feel, with easy access to the coast and the Jurassic Coast World Heritage area a short drive away.

The village grew up around a pebble ford across the river and still shows a mix of period cottages, a village hall, pubs, a primary school and small shops. Local life blends agriculture and orchard heritage with a commuter element, while walking, river wildlife and a steady programme of village events and clubs keep the community active and attractive to families and retirees.
