Buckland Brewer is a popular and sought-after village providing a range of amenities including a school, places of worship, historic pub, village shop and is set in some of North Devon's most attractive rolling countryside. The coast is about 4 miles away and also within easy reach is the seaside resort of Westward Ho! with its long golden sandy Blue Flag beach and the nearby Royal North Devon Golf Course. The working port and market town of Bideford is approximately 6 miles distant where a wide range of national and local shopping, banking and recreational facilities can be found.

Orleigh Court is a gracious stone built complex of dwellings, converted in 1982 from the original Grade I Manor House. The whole site, which offers considerable peace and seclusion, extends to approximately 5 acres, with the residents having access over parts of it for communal use. It is surrounded by typically Devonian undulating countryside and approached from the road leading towards the nearby village of Buckland Brewer, over a tarmacadamed tree lined avenue, which culminates in a parking area for residents and guests. The buildings here are reputed to pre-date the Domesday Book, and are thus Grade I listed, as being of exceptional architectural and historical interest. 12A Orleigh is one of the smaller units on the development, being a two bedroomed property, with a communal area at the front, and including a lock up garage and nearby allotment with useful summerhouse.
