Map of the UK

Harberton is a small, rural parish in the South Hams district of Devon, England, sitting a few miles south of Totnes. The area includes the village itself and the hamlet of Harbertonford on the banks of the River Avon, and is characterised by rolling farmland, hedgerows and quiet country lanes.

Historically agricultural, the local economy still leans on dairy and mixed farming alongside small craft and tourism businesses; there are also the usual village amenities such as a pub and a hall and an active community life centred on local events and conservation of historic buildings and landscape. The parish attracts walkers and those after a quieter, traditional Devon experience rather than large-scale commercial tourism.
