Ermington is a small, historic village in the largely rural district of South Hams in Devon, England. Perched above the wooded River Erme valley it offers views across rolling farmland and is within easy reach of the market town of Ivybridge and the city of Plymouth, making it popular with commuters and walkers.
The village centre, with a medieval parish church and a number of listed stone cottages, reflects a long agricultural past: orchards and mixed farming have long shaped the local economy. Community life is maintained through a village hall, pub and regular local events, and visitors tend to come for the quiet charm and access to South Devon’s countryside rather than mass tourism, leaving Ermington with a close‑knit, village feel.
