About Rumsam

Rumsam lies just outside Barnstaple in North Devon, reached via the A361 from the M5 or the A39 coastal route. The town serves as a gateway to both Exmoor and the North Devon coast, with the nearby Royal Marines Base at Chivenor adding a military presence to this quiet corner of the county. Its position on the old railway network means the Tarka Trail passes close by, offering car-free access to miles of Devon countryside.
