Goodleigh is a small rural village and civil parish in North Devon, Devon, England, a few miles east of Barnstaple. Set among rolling farmland and hedgerowed lanes, it sits within easy reach of the north Devon coast and the uplands of Exmoor, so you get a mix of pastoral views with good access to walking and outdoor recreation.
The settlement retains traditional stone cottages and a parish church with historic features, and the local economy remains rooted in agriculture while many people now commute to nearby towns. Community life is typically centred on the church, village hall and occasional local events, giving a quiet but socially connected rural character with visible historic field patterns and lanes.
