Great Torrington – often simply known as Torrington – hails from idyllic Devon. Dominating high grounds with dramatic descents to the River Torridge, it's nestled perfectly within 'Tarka Country,' a central location coloured by intricate detail in Henry Williamson's "Tarka the Otter". In 2019, Torrington claimed the title of the UK's healthiest place due to its low pollution and abundant green space coupled with excellent health services access.

Torrington's heritage is enriched by its strategic significance during the English Civil War and its recognition as a prominent 17th-century historical hub. Adding to its chronological charisma is ‘Torrington 1646’, an interactive Civil War experience. Be it the neoclassical Great Torrington Town Hall or the Victorian Torrington Pannier Market, history engulfs you at every corner.

Undoubtedly proud of its past, Torrington also looks to the future, boasting Dartington Crystal as the primary town employer followed by an impressive sport culture. Connecting Torrington to the world is the Umberleigh train station and Exeter Airport while local bus services promise excellent mobility within the town itself.
