Map of the UK

Cornworthy is a small rural village and civil parish in the South Hams district of Devon, England. Tucked into rolling countryside overlooking the estuary of the River Dart and lying within the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it is characterised by narrow lanes, stone cottages and a compact village core.

Historically centred on agriculture, the village retains a medieval parish church and a handful of historic manor buildings; today its economy blends farming with tourism and commuting to nearby towns such as Totnes and Dartmouth. Quiet lanes, estuary views and a small, close-knit community make it a popular stop for walkers and visitors seeking a peaceful slice of rural Devon.
