The town has a well regarded community college, full range of shops, a weekly market and a wide choice of cultural facillites. The area is host to a variety of cultural, recreational and sporting pursuits. Dartmoor, the South Hams and the South Devon coastline are all within easy reach and both Exeter and Plymouth are within half an hour's drive.
