Dunterton is a small, very rural community in the district of West Devon in Devon, England. It sits amid rolling farmland, hedged lanes and small pockets of woodland, the kind of low‑density settlement made up of a few farmsteads and cottages rather than a village centre; residents typically look to nearby towns for shops and services.

Historically the area has been agricultural, with long‑established farms and traditional stone buildings, and the local economy still revolves around dairy, beef and mixed arable holdings alongside a growing number of holiday lets and small rural enterprises. Quiet lanes, attractive countryside and a close‑knit community character make Dunterton appealing to those who value rural life, even if public transport and amenities are limited.
