The region West Anstey is a tiny, peaceful hamlet tucked into rolling hills on the southern edge of Exmoor National Park, deep in the unspoilt Anstey valley of Mid Devon. This is remote, unhurried countryside at its finest. Scattered farms and stone cottages sit among fields and hedgerows, with no through traffic, no streetlights, and no noise beyond birdsong and the occasional bleating of sheep. The hamlet's 13th-century Church of St Petrock stands as a quiet reminder of centuries of rural life in this hidden corner of Exmoor. #### Local Services West Anstey has no shop, pub, or post office -- this is a place to escape from it all. For everyday essentials, the nearest towns are Bampton (approximately 5 miles south) and Dulverton (approximately 6 miles east). Bampton has a small Co-op, post office, pharmacy, and several pubs. Dulverton is the southern gateway to Exmoor National Park, with a range of independent shops, a butcher, a delicatessen, a chemist, and the Exmoor National Park Visitor Centre. #### Nearby Shopping South Molton, approximately 8 miles north, is the nearest market town with a wider range of shops, a Tesco supermarket, banks, cafes, and a popular weekly pannier market. For larger supermarkets and high street shopping, Tiverton is approximately 15 miles south and Barnstaple approximately 20 miles north-west. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet -
