Woolfardisworthy is a small rural parish in Mid Devon, Devon, England, set amid rolling farmland and hedgerow-lined lanes. The settlement is characterised by a scattering of stone cottages and farmsteads, a compact village core with a small parish church of medieval origin and a landscape that rewards simple country walks rather than bustling tourist activity.
Economically the area remains largely agricultural, with dairy and mixed farming dominant, though some residents commute to larger centres such as Tiverton and Exeter. Socially the parish maintains a strong sense of community through occasional village events and local clubs, and its quiet historic character appeals to those seeking a traditional Devonshire rural lifestyle.
