I did that walk in January 2007. I stayed in Sidmouth for three or four days, weather was really mild and I walked to Budleigh Salterton one day and took the bus back from Budleigh to Sidmouth. Very nice stretch of the coastpath.

Re: Bought a house in Devon
So perhaps our wanderings are over. We meant to settle on the south Devon coast, but when we came back from Canada we were tempted by the lovely north and rented in Whitby. Lovely place but too cold and harsh for us.
So we rented down here in Dawlish, and a house just turned up nearby.
Lovely sea view, stuck in the late '70s so it needs work, but priced accordingly. And as we're renting we don't have to live in the middle of the unheaval!
We don't think property is a growth investment any more, and reckon prices could well go down, but this will be our home for quite a while, we hope.
