Map of the UK

The civil parish made up of Halwell and Moreleigh sits in the heart of the South Hams district of Devon, England, set among rolling farmland, hedgerows and quiet lanes typical of the South Hams countryside. The villages are rural and compact, within commuting distance of larger towns such as Totnes and Plymouth, yet maintain a peaceful, village-scale feel.

Both settlements have medieval roots and retain traditional stone cottages, a parish church and a handful of listed buildings that reflect their long history; today the local economy is largely agricultural with some small businesses, tourism and residents who commute outwards. Community life is lively for a small place, centred on village events, a hall and the informal networks that still characterise many Devon villages.
