West Devon has 53.7 active businesses for every 1,000 residents, against 39.3 across Great Britain. That ranks it 34th of 350 council areas.

Compared with the UK as a whole, West Devon has more holiday lets and other short-stay accommodation than its size would suggest (2.2 times the national share) and more pubs and bars (1.9 times).

Management consultancies are the largest group, at about 90. At the other end, solicitors’ firms are scarcer than usual: 33% of the UK share.

Okehampton and the places nearby.

Okehampton sits on the northern edge of Dartmoor beside the A30, with a ruined castle, military training ranges on the moor above and a restored rail link to Exeter. It serves a large rural area of farms and villages, and walkers heading onto the high moor bring visitors. New housing has brought families looking for local services. A business here should be explicit about which villages it covers and how far it travels, as distances in West Devon are significant.

North Tawton (6 miles), Chagford (8 miles) and Tavistock (14 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. Elsewhere in Devon, Moretonhampstead (12 miles), Crediton (15 miles), Great Torrington (16 miles) and Holsworthy (16 miles) are within reach. A longer drive takes in Launceston (17 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.

Within Okehampton itself, we build for businesses in Belstone, Sticklepath, South Zeal, Sourton, Folly Gate and Hatherleigh.

From our base in Exeter, Okehampton is about 21 miles to the west. Its postcodes start EX.

Websites in Okehampton: what people ask

Do you work with businesses in Okehampton?
Yes. We are based in Exeter, about 21 miles away, and build websites for businesses across the UK by phone, WhatsApp and video call. You check the design on your phone and sign it off before launch; two rounds of changes are part of the price.

Do you cover the towns around Okehampton?
