Molland sits in the rolling farmland of North Devon on the southern fringe of Exmoor in Devon, England, a small, sparsely populated parish of lanes, commons and steep valley sides that give way to moorland. The landscape is notable for Molland Common and nearby tributaries feeding into the River Taw, making it popular with walkers and those after quiet countryside and wildlife.
Local life centres on mixed farming and the estate at Molland Park, with a medieval parish church, St Mary's Church, Molland, and a scattering of stone cottages and farmsteads; historically the area grew up around manorial holdings and retains several historic houses and field patterns. The community is small and close‑knit, with occasional village events and a steady trickle of rural tourism, equestrian activity and conservation interest keeping the parish socially active despite its remoteness.
