Buckfast Abbey is in a central position in South Devon. It enjoys a tranquil setting, lying in the folds of a fertile valley beside the swift-flowing River Dart, with the wild moorland of the Dartmoor National Park close by.

It is near to attractive market towns (such as Totnes and Newton Abbot), as well as being within easy access of historic cities such as Exeter and Plymouth

Countless different walks are to be enjoyed in the neighbouring countryside, which is acclaimed for its outstanding natural beauty. For those who enjoy the sea air, the Devon coastal resorts plus the harbours of Brixham, Kingsbridge and Dartmouth are all close at hand.
