Budleigh Salterton

You may think you know Devon… but venture off the beaten path and you’ll discover a place like nowhere else in Budleigh Salterton.

The only town fully within the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this is the perfect place to embrace the great outdoors, from the Jurassic coastline to the beautiful countryside. Here, you’ll experience a soul-soothing coastal reboot, away from the hustle of everyday living.

Instead of chain stores and busy roads, you’ll find independent gems, a vibrant creative culture, and a safe, peaceful community. But for those who love action, we aren’t far from Devon’s best attractions, offering something for everyone. This, you think, is a true hidden gem.
