Beaworthy is a small village and civil parish in West Devon, Devon, England, set among rolling farmland and hedged lanes. The centre is modest and characterful, with stone cottages and a parish church forming the local focus; the surrounding landscape is pleasant countryside used largely for mixed and livestock farming.
The community is quiet and close-knit, with a village hall and occasional local events rather than a busy high street, and many residents commute to larger towns for work. Historically the village has medieval roots and several older buildings and lanes that hint at its past; its rural location also makes it attractive for walkers and visitors looking to explore Devon's moorland and coast within a short drive.
