Clifford Building Contractors in Okehampton
Clifford Building Contractors are local builders serving Okehampton and the surrounding area of west Devon. Okehampton is around twenty miles from our Holsworthy base — a straightforward drive across the North Devon countryside — and it is a town we work in regularly. Okehampton sits at the northern edge of Dartmoor, giving it a character shaped by the moor: there are stone farmhouses and period properties throughout the town and the lanes around it, a mix of 20th century estates on the flatter ground, and a growing number of homes in the villages and hamlets that surround the town. We have experience with all of these property types and understand the practical challenges that come with building work in this part of Devon, from the local weather patterns and ground conditions to the planning context created by proximity to Dartmoor National Park. Our services include extensions, full property renovations, roofing, structural work, kitchen and bathroom fitting, and groundworks. We are a straightforward, hands-on firm — the same people who quote the job are the ones who do the work.

Building in Okehampton
Okehampton is a market town at the northern edge of Dartmoor National Park. The town itself sits just outside the National Park boundary, falling within West Devon Borough Council's planning area, but many rural properties in the surrounding area are either within the park or very close to its edge. Properties within Dartmoor National Park are subject to the Dartmoor National Park Authority's planning policies, which are more restrictive than standard local authority policies and place significant weight on landscape character, building materials, and design. Properties just outside the park boundary benefit from more straightforward planning conditions, though the landscape influence of the moor still shapes local expectations around materials and scale. The town has a mix of period stone buildings in the centre, 20th century housing estates, and rural farmhouses and cottages on the outskirts.
