Welcome to the official website of Strete in Devon, England, which is managed by Strete Parish Council. Strete is about a fifteen minute drive from Dartmouth. It is to be found on the high coastal ground at the eastern end of Slapton Sands. It's a good place to stay if you like exploring the local beaches and is also convenient for Kingsbridge, Totnes and Salcombe. Strete is situated on the South West Coastal Footpath and, with a variety of accommodation in the village, it is an ideal location to take a break in your journey. Take time to relax and enjoy the beautiful AONB surroundings.
The Slapton Line Partnership (SLP) has organised three further community
events to discuss the future of the A379 between Strete & Torcross.
To allow maximum input from local residents and visitors, the Partnership
have decided to hold a further drop-in event in Strete, along with two
exhibitions; one in Dartmouth and the other in Kingsbridge.
The events will share information about the series of damaging storms
over the past few years and what steps have been taken to date.
The main goal is to understand and address the challenge for the future road
strategy and what this means to the community. There are important positive
steps that will need to be taken to ensure the future long term resilience of the
area.
Come along to the community drop-in session, with members of the SLP,

Exhibitions will also be held at:
If you would like to speak to a member of the SLP, and you can’t attend
the drop in at Strete Village Hall, Slapton Line Partnership members will be
attending at the library on each of the Saturday mornings.
The exhibition explains what has been happening in the past few years, the
current situation and what is likely to happen next. There is a questionnaire
available at the exhibitions to find out what residents and visitors think.
