East Budleigh is a compact village and civil parish in East Devon, Devon, England, set in rolling farmland a short distance inland from the Jurassic Coast and the coastal town of Budleigh Salterton. The parish lies close to the River Otter and its estuary, so it attracts walkers and cyclists who use quiet lanes and nearby coastal paths while enjoying classic Devon hedgerows and stone cottages.
Historically the parish contains Hayes Barton, noted as the birthplace of Sir Walter Raleigh, and the village church holds several Raleigh family memorials, giving the place a quiet sense of history. The local economy is largely rural, centred on agriculture with some small-scale tourism and a close-knit community life typical of East Devon villages.
