ST PETER'S CHURCH
St Peter's Church, Budleigh Salterton, was built from 1893 to 1896 and dedicated in 1897. It is particularly good for concerts as the pillars are quite slim and therefore do not obstruct the view too much, but more importantly, has a lovely acoustic enhanced by the barrel ceiling. Many visiting musicians comment on this aspect and they are very keen to play in the church again.

HOW TO FIND US AND WHERE TO PARK
Budleigh Salterton lies on the Jurassic Coast between Exmouth and Sidmouth. It is on the road B3148 and is easily accessed from Exeter and Exmouth from the North and West and from the A3152 at the village of Newton Poppleford from the North and East. If you are travelling from the Exeter direction or Exmouth you will arrive in Budleigh Salterton on the Exmouth Road, later re-named West Hill, downhill, arriving at traffic lights as you enter the town. Cross over the traffic lights and turn left into The Lawn where you will find the church on your right hand side. If you are travelling from the West you will arrive in the town on East Budleigh Road. Turn right into Upper Stoneborough Lane, signed to Exmouth, and drive to the same traffic lights referred to above, but from Station Road. Turn left at the lights and then left again into The Lawn. See the map below for further directions.
There are several parking places within easy walking distance of the church and these are also indicated on the map. Parking in the churchyard is very restricted so you are advised to find a space elsewhere.
