Spreyton is a small village and civil parish in the West Devon district of Devon, England. Tucked on the northern fringes of rolling moorland, it has the feel of a traditional Devon settlement with stone and thatch buildings, an ancient parish church with medieval features and several listed houses that hint at its long rural history.
The local economy remains largely agricultural, complemented by small-scale tourism and village amenities such as a pub and community hall; residents value an active social life centred on annual fetes and local clubs. Its position close to Dartmoor and within easy reach of the city of Exeter makes it popular with walkers and anyone looking for quiet countryside within reach of urban services.
