Situation Shaugh Prior is a small South Hams village set on the South-West edge of Dartmoor just inside the National Park. It has a village pub, a 'Good' primary school and historic Parish Church. Secondary schooling is at the 'Outstanding' Ivybridge Community College for which free transport is provided. There is strong sense of community - click the link for more information for community groups and services: The village is less than 5 miles from Plympton which has a good range of shops, schools and services, less than 5 miles from Yelverton which has a range of local shops and only 10 miles, (or less than half an hour) to Plymouth city centre. For lovers of the countryside, the wonderful open spaces of Dartmoor are right on the doorstep and the picturesque Shaugh Bridge crosses the river Plym at the foot of the hill. From here are beautiful walks and along the riverbank through National Trust woodland to Cadover Bridge and past the Dewer Stone, a Mecca for local rock climbers. The Plym cycle trail is also near by. Plymouth itself is an historic and vibrant waterside City, well provided with colleges, grammar and public schools, modern university, the Peninsula Medical School, Theatre Royal and cinemas, large department stores, cafes, bistros and restaurants. The leisure facilities are outstanding with superb water-sports in and around Plymouth Sound.
