Thanks for this excellent video of Sidmouth. As a youngster I visited this seaside town during the summer months because of my retired grandparent. This place was great for them and it is a nice place for retired people. It lasted for about 25 years before one of them had to move on as they say. During his final years my grandfather was in a nursing home. I see this place has not changed much and is among the few proper old british seaside towns left in the country. I have so many great memories from this place and Devon in general. I have high hopes I can revisit sometime in the future but that is not so easy when you have permanent residence elsewhere in the EU.
Looks like a traditional ⛵ seaside town, which I love. Not ruined by amusement arcades etc. 👍👍
Totally agree!
I live in Sidmouth in a gorgeous detached Victorian villa on the slopes of Salcombe Hill - been here for 24 years now and would never move anywhere else.
Beautiful- what a truly lovely place
Thank you for another great film. We are going to Sidmouth soon & always look at your walks to get a feel of the places we visit..We love South Devon & can highly recommed places like Teignmouth & Exmouth to anyone who has not been before. Both lovely!👍

I need to rectify this.

We are definitely going to visit Sidmouth, looks so tranquil and beautiful, thank you for all your videos in our beautiful Country 😊👌👍 just wondering what the name of the song is you play in this video? Keep up the Great videos xx
Sidmouth well worth a visit, went there last year twice in fact, the area was a training ground for the D Day landings in ww2, the gardens on top of the cliffs are stunning.
I've been to Sidmouth but i haven't been there. I would love to collect pepples. Hope you are feeling better.
I love Sidmouth. We travel by coach from Noth Wales stay 5 day's. Going again this October. Can't Wait.
Beautiful seaside village. I think Joan Hickson, Actress, lived here in her last years. Famous for playing Miss Marple.
Only been there once about 50 years ago with my mum as she wanted to see what the cash & carry was like. We had lunch in a very old pub just off the seafront. No I can't remember its name!!
I think i would be sick going down these steps seeing i suffer from vertigo.
Oh no!
My beautiful home town. Biggest drawback is the lack of affordable housing for local youngsters ... such a pity 😢
went to school auckland N.Z. with a Paul Harris from sidmouth.
And thank you Neil for taking me on a casual amble through this delightful Devon seaside town.
Another town with pedestrian streets. Love it!
Thank you I really enjoyed that will be visiting later this year x
Have fun!
How's your knee ?? First week in August is the time to go Sidmuff ‼️😁
Knee still banged up but not going to let it beat me!

n1 bud thanks
My granny used to live there but I don't remember the paved walkway by the cliffs (I was only a child) but I think the pebble beach went all the way up to the walls.
Wonder when it was installed?
Sidmouth like the rest of Devon is a very beautiful seaside town
