Welcome to Cranbrook

Cranbrook is a small town located in the East Devon district of Devon, England. It is situated approximately 9 miles east of the city of Exeter and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The town has a population of around 5,000 people and is known for its modern architecture and sustainable design. Cranbrook is a relatively new town, having been built in the early 2010s, and is still developing with new housing and amenities being added regularly.

One of the main attractions of Cranbrook is its community spirit. The town has a range of local events and activities, including a weekly market, a community centre, and a sports centre. There are also several parks and green spaces, including the country park, which is a popular spot for walking and cycling. The town has a strong sense of identity and residents are proud to call Cranbrook their home.

Cranbrook is also well-connected to the rest of Devon and beyond. The town has its own railway station, which provides regular services to Exeter and London. There are also good road links, with the M5 motorway just a short drive away. This makes Cranbrook an ideal location for those who want to enjoy the peace and quiet of rural living, while still being within easy reach of the city.
