Willand is a compact village and civil parish in Mid Devon, in the county of Devon, England, set among rolling agricultural countryside and within easy reach of the M5 motorway. It sits close to the market towns of Cullompton and Tiverton, so residents benefit from rural surroundings while having fairly quick road access to larger centres.
Historically an agricultural community, Willand has a strong local identity with a primary school, village hall, pubs and a non‑league football club, Willand Rovers. There is some light industry and warehousing nearby thanks to the good transport links, and the village is a handy base for outdoor walks and country attractions, including easy access to the scenic towpaths and green spaces of the nearby Grand Western Canal country park.
