Staverton is a small village and civil parish in South Hams, Devon, England, tucked into the rolling farmland and wooded valleys that characterise this part of the county. Its setting offers a network of quiet lanes and footpaths, with easy access to both coastal scenery and the broader South Devon countryside, so the immediate landscape feels typically rural and scenic.
The parish retains a strong village character, historically rooted in agriculture and local trades, and today combines farming with small businesses and a degree of commuting to nearby towns.
