About Broadband in Charterlands
Charterlands is in South Hams. Full fibre broadband is available here, with typical download speeds of around 875 Mbps, well above the UK average of 69 Mbps. Most major providers cover the area, so there is a reasonable amount of competition on price.
Standard broadband runs over the copper phone network. Speeds depend on your distance from the telephone exchange and typically range from around 5 Mbps to 20 Mbps.
Superfast broadband (FTTC) uses a fibre optic cable to your street cabinet, then copper for the final stretch to your home. Most urban and suburban areas can get speeds of 35 to 80 Mbps.
Full fibre (FTTP) runs fibre optic cable all the way into your home. It is the fastest and most reliable option available, with speeds from 100 Mbps upwards.
What's Happening with Broadband in Charterlands?
Charterlands is in a strong position by UK standards. Full fibre (FTTP) is available here, delivering speeds of around 875 Mbps on the Openreach network. That puts the area comfortably ahead of the national average: as of Spring 2026, roughly 82% of UK premises can access FTTP and 89% can access gigabit-capable broadband, according to Ofcom data. For a rural South Hams location, that level of connectivity is notable.
No specific rollout announcements for Charterlands or the wider South Hams district were found in recent ISP news sources at the time of writing. Openreach has continued expanding its FTTP build across the UK in 2026, with BT Group reporting coverage of 23 million premises by May 2026, and a target of 25 million by the end of December 2026. Whether further expansion is planned for neighbouring South Hams postcodes is not confirmed by any published source.
In terms of alternative network providers (altnets) for this part of Devon, Wessex Internet operates rural FTTP builds across parts of the South West and has been active in extending coverage to harder-to-reach communities. It is worth checking their availability tool alongside the Openreach-based ISPs such as BT, Sky, EE, Vodafone, and Plusnet.
One change that will affect all Charterlands residents is the PSTN copper switch-off, due in January 2027. Openreach has confirmed the analogue phone network will close then, meaning any landline service still running over the old copper infrastructure will need to migrate to a digital voice (VoIP) alternative before that date. If you have a home phone bundled with your broadband package, contact your provider now to confirm you are already on a digital line.
