Devon is a very expensive county especially if your looking for rural property with land, prices are 2nd expensive to London but with very low wages, Cornwall is cheaper-just a little bit, but there you are also bidding against 2nd home buyers. houses are cheaper in Plymouth and Barnstaple where there is plenty of property available but if your looking for rural property with land the prices are more in the region of £250K-£350K, i did see an ex-council house("Cornish unit") semi in a small village about 15 miles from here for 95K but that was snapped up within about a week.

complete and utter self sustaining insanity.

yep, but that is what happens, incomers with too much money/white flight from the home counties!!
