We are situated in Abbey Place, which lies within the administrative centre of Tavistock, adjacent to Abbey Bridge spanning the River Tavy.

Tavistock is the primary market town in West Devon, nestling between Dartmoor and the county border with Cornwall. The city of Plymouth lies to the south and fine road links exist to the rest of the country in the form of the M5 motorway and the A30 or A38 dual carriageway routes around the edge of Dartmoor.

The town's Benedictine Abbey was the location of one of the first printing presses to be established in England in 1525, and some of the remaining parts of the complex have found new uses in the present day.
