Hawkerland Devon Map

About Hawkerland

Hawkerland, a quiet corner of East Devon, offers a contemplative pause in the onward rush of modern life. It lies 6.8 km north of Budleigh Salterton (from Budleigh Salterton: bearing 354°T, OS grid SY 056 887), and is situated west-north-west of Colaton Raleigh village. The land here, a gentle undulation of fields, seems to hold the pale, diffused light characteristic of the South West, lending a soft glow to the scattered farmsteads and hedgerows that define its character. Though not a place of grand pronouncements, Hawkerland possesses a quiet dignity, perhaps in the sturdy, unpretentious architecture of its older dwellings, or in the way the wind, carrying the distant scent of the coast, whispers through the surrounding trees. The agricultural rhythm of the surrounding countryside, a slow turning of the seasons, is the true pulse of Hawkerland, a constant reminder of the enduring connection between the land and its inhabitants.
