Why Move to Devon?
Devon, officially known as Devonshire, is a county unlike any other in England. Stretching across a peninsula, it boasts the unique distinction of having two separate coastlines — one along the Bristol Channel and the other facing the English Channel.
With miles of sandy beaches, dramatic cliffs, and rolling countryside, it’s no wonder people are drawn here.
Traditionally seen as a retirement haven, Devon has more recently become a magnet for young families and professionals looking for a better work–life balance. In fact, thousands of Londoners have swapped city life for the slower pace and fresh opportunities that Devon offers. This influx has boosted the local economy, with a wave of independent start-ups emerging from artisan gins and local food producers to craft businesses and wellness brands.
While travel around the county can be slower compared to city living, connections are good. Exeter sits on the M5, with the Devon Expressway and North Devon Link Road keeping towns connected. Rail links put London within 2½ hours, and Exeter Airport provides flights across the UK and Europe.
What Devon may lack in speed, it more than makes up for in lifestyle. Outdoor pursuits are part of everyday life here, from surfing and kayaking to hiking and cycling. For anyone ready to embrace a healthier, more relaxed pace of life, Devon is hard to beat.
Devon Schools & Education
Families moving to Devon will find a wide choice of education options, from nursery provision through to university study. The county is home to hundreds of primary and secondary schools, as well as several special schools, further education colleges, and highly regarded universities.
Many schools across Devon perform strongly in Ofsted inspections, giving parents confidence in the quality of teaching and support available. You can explore individual school reports via the official Ofsted website.
For post-16 education, Devon offers an excellent mix of colleges. Exeter College is the county’s only Ofsted “Outstanding” further education college and is widely recognised for its world-class teaching.
South Devon College also provides a wide variety of courses across multiple campuses in Torbay and beyond.
Higher education opportunities are strong too. The University of Exeter enjoys a global reputation for its research and teaching, while The University of Plymouth, one of the largest in the Southwest, attracts thousands of students each year with its diverse range of courses and central city campus.
Things to Do in Devon
Devon is a true playground for leisure and adventure, offering something for everyone. The county is divided into distinct areas, each with its own charm, East Devon, North Devon, and South Devon, plus the dramatic landscapes of Exmoor and Dartmoor.
East Devon is perfect for seaside lovers, with golden beaches and the striking Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site ideal for walking, fossil hunting, or simply relaxing on summer days. Head north, and you’ll discover rolling countryside, sweeping beaches, and the wild beauty of Exmoor National Park, where Dunkery Beacon rises to 1,703 feet.
South Devon is the county’s busiest hub, home to the vibrant cities of Exeter and Plymouth, each brimming with history, culture, and family-friendly attractions. Beyond the cities, you’ll find ancient castles, historic homes, and a wealth of Neolithic and Bronze Age sites that tell Devon’s long human story.
Outdoor enthusiasts are spoilt for choice, with miles of hiking trails and the famous Southwest Coast Path, which stretches for 205 miles along Devon’s stunning shoreline.

Devon Property
Devon continues to feature prominently in “best places to live” rankings, admired for its school quality, scenic beauty, charm, and safety.
The average property price in Devon is now approximately £321,000, with the median closer to £278,000. Most sales fall between £300k–£400k, while established homes average around £319k and new builds around £374k Plumplot.
Rightmove reports an average of £325,372 based on data covering mid-2025 Rightmove.
A recent property market analysis places the county-wide average at £303,000, up ~2.4% year-on-year. Detached homes average ~£474,000, and flats have become more affordable at around £157,000 Woods Homes.
Areas like Lustleigh command premium rural prices due to their quintessential thatched charm and countryside pedigree .
More accessible properties can still be found, whether you’re trading city life for something bigger, or seeking value without compromising on quality.
Overall, Devon market prices are still broadly more accessible than many urban areas, especially London.
While there are luxury hotspots, there’s also a wide spectrum of affordability across the county. For those relocating, this means a better chance of finding value, even with higher-end preferences in mind.
