Bondleigh is a small, rural parish in West Devon, Devon, England, tucked into the rolling countryside and narrow lanes that typify this part of Devon. The settlement is centred on a clutch of stone cottages and a historic parish church, with surrounding fields used mainly for pasture and mixed arable farming, giving the area a strongly agricultural character and open, scenic views.
Historically the village has kept a sense of continuity through listed buildings and old farmsteads, and socially it remains a close-knit community where the church, village hall and occasional fêtes or country pursuits play a big part. Its quiet location makes it popular with walkers and those seeking rural homes within reach of larger towns, while farming and small-scale tourism or holiday lets contribute to the local economy.
