Distance - 5.5 Miles
Walk Inspiration - 40 Coast and Country Walks in Devon, Walk 1
Geocaches - 5
A perfect walk - river, coast, Sunday Pub Lunch.
The guide book suggests starting at Ladram Bay Parking area, where paid parking is available.
As we have a table booked at the Kings Arms, Otterton, we will take advantage of their facilities to have more money available for post walk refreshment.
From the pub, its 2.5 miles South along the banks of the River Otter. If the locals and geocache listing are to be believed, it the home of beavers - although its best to visit at dusk to see them.
River Otter, where the Beavers Live |
There's a tantalising view of where the Otter meets the sea through some pine trees. This eventually opens out to a clear view - showing Budleigh Salterton and where we walked yesterday.

Yesterday's Walk |
The coast line is comprised of tan coloured cliffs. Brandy head named after the hooch smuggled in. An RAF observation point providing a history lesson and a place to sit under shelter if you have brought sarnies with you.

We haven't - we are continuing our never ending quest to find the perfect Sunday Lunch. The Kings Arms in Otterton scored high, with beef reared at their own farm and cauliflower cheese/parsnips the bonus vegetables.
Lunch time |
The Otter Bitter was in perfect condition too.
Find me a better way to spend a Sunday morning!
