Ideford is a small rural village and civil parish in Teignbridge, Devon, England, sitting on the lower slopes of the Haldon ridge a few miles from the market town of Newton Abbot. The settlement is compact, with traditional stone cottages and a historic parish church, and the surrounding countryside is a patchwork of farmland, hedgerows and heath that gives easy access for walkers to ridge-top views and nearby woods.
Historically agricultural, the community retains a relaxed village feel with local events centred on the church and village hall, while many households now commute to nearby towns. The parish’s quiet lanes, visible historic features and proximity to Haldon Forest and the Teign Valley make it appealing to people seeking rural life within reach of regional services.
