Cockle Rocks, Sidmouth
Sidmouth is a small town on the east Devon coast in south west England about 15 miles south east of Exeter. Originally Sidmouth was a fishing village dating back at least as far as the Domesday Book where it is listed as Sedemuda.

It is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is on the Jurassic Coast world heritage site and the South West coast path, a long distance footpath that skirts almost all of the coast in the West Country of England.

The principal income of the town is from tourism. Sidmouth holds an annual folk festival in early August attracting musicians and tourists from around the world.

The town is also popular as a retirement community, with about 60% of the population being over retirement age.
