Sittaford

In the novel The Sittaford Mystery, Sittaford is a tiny village on the edge of Dartmoor, by Sittaford Beacon. It is located six miles from Exhampton. The village itself consisted of three picturesque but dilapidated cottages, a forge, and a combined post office and sweet shop. There is also Sittaford House, with six small bungalows along the lane.
