location:
A walk along Budleigh Salterton's historic promenade is an uplifting experience, whatever the season. With its small fishing boats and quirky, colourful beach huts, the famous pebbled beach stretches along Lyme Bay for about two miles, leading to an iconic view of the red cliffs – beloved of artists and photographers alike majestic Scots pines at the mouth of the River Otter. This small, charming seaside town has a timeless old-world quality and is one of Devon's quieter resorts, even in mid-summer. It is set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is part of the World Heritage Jurassic Coast, and is on the South West Coastal Path, making this an exceptional place. The Otter Estuary is a large nature reserve, home to abundant wildlife, and significant for kingfishers, sand martins, otters and the recently reintroduced beavers. If you are a bird watcher, many easily accessible hides along the riverbank offer abundant opportunities to study the wide variety of seasonal species.
