The Pebbles is a large detached three storey family house with five bedrooms, set back from the High Street, in the centre of Budleigh Salterton, with southerly views over the pebble beach to the sea. Its garden gives onto the sea front footpath and beach. There is a double garage as well as good parking space in its large courtyard.

Unlike Exmouth and Sidmouth, Budleigh Salterton has changed little in the past half century while major developments have expanded Exmouth, 4 miles away into a significant commuter town for Exeter.  Budleigh Salterton remains the home of many retired people but with a growing number of younger families. It has good shops, pubs and a Health Centre. The nearest supermarkets are Tesco and Lidl, 3 miles away on the road to Exmouth, and Waitrose, about 8 miles towards Sidford. Exeter is 12 miles away.
