Yarcombe is a small rural parish in East Devon, in the county of Devon, England. It sits among rolling farmland and hedgerow-lined valleys on the eastern edge of the county, close to the Somerset border, and shares the characteristic lanes, wooded combes and open downland that attract walkers and riders to the area.
Historically agricultural, the local economy still revolves around mixed farming and smallholdings, with a growing contribution from tourism, holiday lets and rural enterprises. Village life is centred on a parish church, a village hall and a pub or two, and a steady programme of fetes, markets and community events helps keep a strong local spirit alongside a stock of traditional cottages and older historic buildings.
