Do

 * The South West Coast Path runs through the town offering spectacular cliff-top views, and connects Budleigh to nearby Exmouth and Sidmouth.

Connect
The village is down the hill out of sight of the mobile transmitters, so as of Sept 2023 there is 4G from all UK carriers on the approach road, but reception in the village is patchy especially indoors. 5G has not reached this area.

Go next
The nearby town of Exmouth is a flourishing seaside resort town, with plenty to eat, drink, and do, with a long stretch of sandy beach. Exmouth and Budleigh are connected via the South West Coast Path that runs along the picturesque cliffside.

To the north west is another seaside town of Sidmouth.
