Budleigh & Raleigh sits on the southern edge of East Devon in Devon, centred on the seaside town of Budleigh Salterton and its neighbouring villages. The ward lies beside the mouth of the River Otter and is close to the Jurassic Coast and the East Devon AONB, so dramatic cliffs, pebble beaches, fossil-hunting and coastal walking are everyday draws.
Economically the area mixes tourism, independent shops and small businesses with a notable retired population and some commuters to Exeter. Historic cottages and civic buildings, local arts and sailing events, plus active conservation and community groups give the ward a strong local identity while its rural fringes remain important for farming and wildlife.
