Bittadon is a tiny, quietly rural parish in North Devon, within the county of Devon, England. It sits amid the classic Devon landscape of rolling farmland, hedgerow-lined lanes and scattered stone farmsteads, and has retained a low population and a strong sense of countryside character rather than becoming a tourist centre.
Historically agricultural, the parish has traditional ties to mixed farming and its small cluster of historic buildings, and today the local economy combines farming with some commuter households and holiday accommodation. Social life is typically parish-centred and intimate, with an emphasis on community events, walking and appreciation of the surrounding natural landscape.
