About Whitchurch

Whitchurch lies just outside Tavistock on the A386, serving as a gateway to western Dartmoor. The village sits in the Tavy valley where moorland meets farmland, with dramatic granite tors rising eastward. Most visitors arrive on short trips from Plymouth or Tavistock, though longer routes from Exeter use the A30 to Okehampton then south. The area has good EV charging infrastructure with over 60 fast chargers nearby. The village retains its historic watermill beside the River Tavy, still grinding flour after two centuries of operation.
