The village and civil parish of Rose Ash sits in the rolling countryside of North Devon, Devon, England, a small rural community a few miles from South Molton and within easy reach of Exmoor and Barnstaple. It is characterised by narrow lanes, hedged fields and a scattering of stone cottages and farms, with a compact historic core centred on the parish church and several listed buildings.

Traditionally agricultural, the local economy remains dominated by mixed farming alongside a handful of small businesses and some commuters, while village life revolves around parish activities and occasional community events. The parish is popular with walkers and anyone interested in rural history, with surviving field patterns and lanes that reflect centuries of Devon farming and a quietly strong neighbourhood spirit.
