Coombe reveals itself as a quiet assembly of stone and slate where the Teignbridge landscape softens into a series of steep, wooded declivities. It lies 3.4 miles north-west of Chudleigh (from Chudleigh: bearing 323°T, OS grid SX 836 839), and is situated south-south-east of Christow village. The air here holds the damp, mineral scent of the nearby Ryecroft Quarry Sssi, where the earth has been turned to expose the raw, geological bones of the region. Rainwater often gathers in the hollows before finding its way toward the France Brook, carving thin, silver ribbons through the heavy clay soil. Sunlight hits the valley floor with a flickering intensity, illuminating the rugged slopes where the remnants of old mining activity once defined the local industry. Coombe remains a place of deep shadows and sudden clearings, where the silence is broken only by the sharp, rhythmic call of birds echoing across the ridges. The terrain rises sharply toward the south, drawing the eye toward the distant, thundering presence of Canonteign Falls. Such proximity to the wilder veins of the earth grants the hamlet a singular, solitary character, far removed from the frantic pace of the wider world.
