Talaton is a small rural village and civil parish in East Devon, Devon, England, set among rolling farmland and lanes about ten miles from Exeter and not far from Ottery St Mary. The village sits in a landscape of hedged fields and orchards fed by the local brook, the River Tale, which soon joins the River Otter, making it a pleasant base for country walks and wildlife spotting.
Locally the economy is largely agricultural with some small businesses and commuters to nearby towns; the community is centred on a medieval parish church, a village hall and a handful of historic houses and farmsteads. Talaton retains a strong village feel with annual events and shows, reflecting typical Devon traditions such as orcharding and cider-making alongside the quieter rhythms of rural life.
