The Ancient Stannary town of Ashburton is situated within Dartmoor National Park. Halfway between Plymouth and Exeter, it is bypassed by the A38 Expressway bringing both major cities to within 25 minutes drive. Ashburton is an increasingly sought after place in which to live. With buildings little altered in 150 years, it is both attractive and has a very good range of local shops and facilities to suit most needs.
