Offwell is a small rural parish in East Devon, Devon, England, set among rolling farmland and pockets of ancient woodland on the fringes of the Blackdown Hills. The village sits on higher ground with pleasant country views and a network of footpaths that attract walkers and wildlife enthusiasts; its landscape is typical of East Devon with hedgerows, small fields and rich biodiversity.

Historically the settlement has a medieval parish church and a scattering of listed cottages and farm buildings, and today the local economy is largely agricultural with many residents commuting to nearby towns such as Honiton or Exeter. Community life is active for a village of its size, centred on the church, primary school and village hall, with seasonal events, volunteer groups and a steady interest in conservation and rural pursuits.
