Pros:
- Strong community feel with local events and amenities
- Affordable entry points in a rural market
- Proximity to Dartmoor and outdoor recreation without sacrificing basic services
Cons:

For buyers, consider a longer-term plan that leverages the rural charm while planning for essential services, schools, and transport links.
