Marhamchurch is a small village and civil parish in north‑east Cornwall, England, lying a couple of miles south‑east of the coastal town of Bude. Set among rolling farmland and winding lanes, it is within easy reach of the coast and the South West Coast Path, so countryside and seascape are both close at hand.
The parish has a medieval church at its heart and retains a quietly historic, rural character with stone cottages, hedgerows and lanes. The local economy remains largely agricultural, complemented by tourism and holiday accommodation, while a close‑knit village community maintains social events and everyday services for residents who often commute to nearby towns.
