Georgeham is a small, historic village in North Devon, Devon, England, set on gently rolling farmland a short distance from the Atlantic coast. The village retains a cluster of stone cottages, a parish church with medieval roots, a village green and a couple of traditional pubs, and acts as a quiet base for visitors heading to famous nearby surf beaches such as Croyde and Woolacombe or for coastal walks to Baggy Point and Saunton Sands.
Economically and socially Georgeham blends agriculture with tourism - holiday cottages and local services become busier in summer - while community life revolves around the church, the village hall and occasional local events. It’s within easy reach of larger service towns like Barnstaple, yet retains a distinctly rural, close‑knit character that appeals to walkers, surfers and anyone after a quieter Devon village experience.
