Saunton Devon Map

About Saunton

Sunlight, often a soft, diffused affair in this corner of North Devon, seems to find a particular grace as it falls upon Saunton. It lies 8.6 km north of Northam (from Northam: bearing 4°T, OS grid SS 457 376), and is situated south-east of Croyde village. The air here carries the faint, briny scent of the nearby Atlantic, a constant whisper of the sea that shapes the very character of Saunton. Fields, a patchwork of greens and golds under the expansive sky, roll gently towards the coast, their hedgerows a riot of summer blossom or the starker beauty of winter branches. The village itself, with its clusters of stone cottages, possesses a quiet dignity, as if holding its breath against the immensity of the surrounding landscape. One might imagine the slow unfolding of generations here, each adding their own subtle layer to the enduring spirit of Saunton.
