About Buckland

Buckland's charm is woven into the verdant tapestry of the South Hams, a region renowned for its natural beauty. It lies 5.6 km west of Kingsbridge (from Kingsbridge: bearing 265°T, OS grid SX 678 438), and is situated east of Bantham village. The landscape around Buckland is characterized by gently undulating farmland, interspersed with copses of ancient woodland that hint at its long agricultural heritage. Evidence of Buckland's past can be found in its modest parish church, a testament to centuries of local life and devotion. The proximity to the coast means that the salty tang of the sea often drifts inland, influencing the character of Buckland. Life in Buckland continues at a pace dictated by the seasons, with farming remaining a significant, though evolving, part of its identity.
