Sampford Peverell sits in Mid Devon, Devon, England, just off M5 Junction 27 between Tiverton and Cullompton. The village is set in a quiet rural landscape and is bordered by the towpath and waterways of the Grand Western Canal, now a country park popular for walking, birdwatching and leisurely boat trips.
The name reflects a medieval association with the Peverell family and the village retains a compact, community‑minded character centred on its parish church and local amenities. Agriculture remains important locally, but the canal and good road links have encouraged recreational visitors and commuters; historic cottages, tranquil lanes and seasonal village events give it a distinctly Mid Devon feel.
