Lympstone Devon Map

About Lympstone

Lympstone, a jewel on the Exe estuary, catches the light like a polished shell. It lies 3.5 km north-north-west of Exmouth (from Exmouth: bearing 337°T, OS grid SX 988 840), and is situated south-south-east of Exton village. The village green, a verdant heart beating softly, invites contemplation under the vast East Devon sky, a sky that often spills molten gold across the estuary at dusk. Its history whispers from the weathered stone of cottages that huddle close, a testament to generations who have drawn sustenance from the tidal waters. Once a bustling port, Lympstone retains a maritime spirit, its narrow lanes still echoing with the phantom creak of sailing ships and the cries of gulls. The gentle slope of its land towards the river lends a sense of unfolding discovery as one wanders its quiet thoroughfares. Even the salty tang in the air seems to carry the memory of distant shores.
