This small and vibrant town is located in mid-Devon; nearby Exmoor National Park, Wimbleball Lake and the Grand Western Canal Country Park provide wonderful opportunities walks, cycle rides and activities.

This is a popular event, with traditional funfair and a street market selling novelties and local produce. Bampton is also famous for its floral displays, having won the national Britain in Bloom competition several time in recent years.
