Littleham sits within the Exmouth area of Devon, offering a coastal lifestyle built on clean air, falling crime rates and a settled, community feel. Across the surrounding neighbourhoods, you'll find consistently good air quality and safety levels well below the national average, making this a reassuring choice for families and anyone wanting a quieter pace of life. The A376 connects you to Exeter by road, and Exmouth station provides rail links too, though public transport is limited in parts, so a car is useful for getting around. Housing and amenities vary noticeably depending on which part of the area you're looking at. Exmouth Withycombe Raleigh offers the most affordable entry point, with terraces from £240,000, while Exmouth Littleham sits in the mid to upper range, with detached homes averaging £674,000. Budleigh & Raleigh commands the highest prices overall, reflecting its rural setting and strong reputation for schools and family living. Exmouth Town, meanwhile, offers more affordable flats and terraces alongside the best transport links, thanks to its railway station and five local parks. Schools are a mixed picture across the area, so it's worth checking catchments carefully wherever you're considering. Budleigh & Raleigh has three well-regarded primaries, Exmouth Town's Beacon and Exeter Road primaries are solid choices, and Withycombe Raleigh CofE Primary performs well, though some nearby schools and the local secondary college need improvement. Healthcare provision also differs: Exmouth Littleham benefits from two GP surgeries and two hospitals nearby, while Withycombe Raleigh has no GP or hospital on its doorstep. A notable trend throughout the area is flexible working, with a quarter to a third of residents working from home, underlining its appeal as a place to settle rather than commute from daily.
