Cruwys Morchard is a small, inward-looking village and civil parish in Mid Devon, Devon, England, set among rolling farmland, hedgerow-lined lanes and small woodlands. The landscape is quintessentially Devonian, quiet and rural, and popular with walkers who enjoy country lanes and the sense of an unhurried pace of life rather than busy tourist hotspots.
The place is notable for its long historic continuity: the Cruwys family have been associated with the manor for many centuries and the village core includes a medieval parish church and the old manor house, Cruwys Morchard House. Today the local economy remains largely agricultural with some diversification into holiday accommodation and estate activities, while a small, close-knit community keeps village traditions and seasonal events alive.
