Chulmleigh is a small historic market town in North Devon, Devon, England, set amid rolling farmland on high ground that gives good views over the surrounding countryside. The compact centre retains stone buildings and a parish church and still feels like a traditional market town despite modern developments.

The local economy is largely agricultural with farms, small businesses and village services at its heart, and the town acts as a community hub with a college, pubs and annual events that draw people from nearby villages. It’s a handy base for exploring rural North Devon and is within easy reach of the hills and coastal attractions around Exmoor.
