Sidmouth is a charming little town on the East coast of Devon. It overlooks the waters of Lyme Bay, situated on the Jurassic Coast and on the South West Coast Path, a long distance footpath skirting almost all of the coast of the West Country of England. The town is set in a sheltered valley below sandstone cliffs and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. One of the very few seaside towns which has managed to preserve its old world charm, it is no surprise that Sidmouth is popular among retirees, with around 60% of its population being over retirement age. While it is quiet and tranquil, this does not mean there is nothing to do in and around the town. Sidmouth is home to an indoor swimming pool, sports hall, cinema and golf course. There is also a museum housing local memorabilia and artefacts as well as geological samples, all providing a glimpse of the areas history both social and natural. And each August the world comes to Sidmouth as both musicians and tourists from near and far gather for the town’s annual folk festival. During the festivities many different cultures are celebrated in music and dance along the pier.
