North Huish is a small, predominantly rural civil parish in the South Hams district of Devon, England, set among the hedged, undulating farmland and wooded valleys typical of the area. The settlement comprises a handful of houses, farms and hamlets linked by narrow lanes, and lies within easy driving distance of larger centres such as Totnes and Plymouth, making it popular with commuters as well as those seeking a quieter country life.

The parish has a long history reflected in its older stone cottages, former manor houses and the local parish church, and the economy remains largely agricultural with some small local businesses and rural tourism. Socially it reads as a close‑knit community with village events and walking routes that appeal to visitors interested in Devon’s landscape and heritage rather than busy tourist facilities.
