This old salters’ community nestling on the World Heritage Jurassic Coast has a 400-year-old cobble beach. A delightful riverside walk to the old village of Otterton runs from Budleigh Salterton through the picturesque Otter Valley.

Otterton defies modernity with its chocolate-box thatched charm. Even the Kings Arms Inn has a post office and general store. Otterton Mill is a Pandora’s box of cultural activity with a bakery, working flourmill, arts and crafts, and gallery of fine Devon art. A popular restaurant with live music provides evenings of delicious food and entertainment.

Nearby is Hayes Barton, the birthplace of Sir Walter Raleigh, favourite explorer of Queen Elizabeth I. Bicton Park and Botanical Gardens are also nearby and are the most magnificent privately owned gardens in Devon. Around the headland from Budleigh Salterton is the famous and striking geology of Ladram Bay, with its red cliffs plunging into the sea.
