Manaton Devon Map

About Manaton

Manaton, a Devonshire jewel, breathes the quietude of Dartmoor’s edge. It lies 4.9 km south of Moretonhampstead (from Moretonhampstead: bearing 183°T, OS grid SX 750 811), and is situated south-south-east of North Bovey village. This ancient settlement, a collection of stone cottages gathered around its venerable church, feels as if it has grown organically from the very granite of the surrounding tors. The light here, particularly in the soft mornings, possesses a peculiar clarity, illuminating the weathered grey slate roofs and the vibrant greens of the village’s well-tended gardens. Manaton’s churchyard, a peaceful domain under the wide Devon sky, holds stones that whisper of generations who have tended this land. The air carries the faint scent of peat and damp earth, a constant reminder of its moorland proximity.
