Lapford is a hillside village overlooking the river Yeo. It has a past reaching back to the Iron Age and a grade I listed church that was rebuilt and extended in the 12 century by Sir William De Tracey as penance for his part in the murder of Thomas Becket. Several options are available for socialising including the Malt Scoop pub, Lapford Mill café, and several outside spaces for children to play and where events are held. Further out of the village on the A377 is the petrol station with convenience store. For a larger selection of independent shops, bigger supermarkets Crediton is 9 miles away. Nearby is Lapford station, a request stop on the scenic Tarka Line running between Barnstaple and Exeter. And for those seeking the fresh air, about a mile away is Eggesford Forest, home to the very first trees planted by the Forestry Commission which offers numerous plantations for walkers, riders, and cyclists.

Turn right and head up into the village, after The Malt Scoop pub take a left turn onto Orchard Way to the end then bear around to the right where no. 50 Prospect Way can be found on your left.
