Bicton College - Budleigh Salterton

Budleigh Salterton
Budleigh Salterton is a charming, self-contained residential town by the sea, located in an area of outstanding natural beauty. It offers old world charm, beautiful red cliffs and lovely walks beside the River Otter. There are plenty of opportunities for shopping and leisurely browsing.
Budleigh Salterton has three miles of stunning, unspoilt beachline, with sandstone cliffs at one end and the mouth of the River Otter at the other and, like so many coastal towns in East Devon, it remains largely unspoilt.
