The parish of Combe Martin sits on the Bristol Channel coast in North Devon, Devon, England, tucked into a steep, wooded valley and a sheltered cove. The cliffs and foreshore are noted for fossil-rich strata and sweeping views towards Exmoor, while the South West Coast Path runs through the area, giving walkers dramatic coastal scenery and a sense of a long, ribbon-like settlement shaped by both sea and hills.
Today the parish combines tourism with small-scale farming and local trades, with guesthouses, pubs and community events underpinning the local economy; historic traces of mining and smuggling remain in local stories, and the narrow streets and village buildings give it a character that feels distinctly North Devon.
