The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalene is a Grade I listed building, with a prominent four stage tower over ninety feet high, completed in 1520 and restored in the 1950s.

Its castellated top and granite pinnacles are impressive and support the weather vanes that, with the chiming clock, were restored by the community within the last five years.

Although possibly a tenth century building no medieval architecture survives, because of extensive 'restoration' during the nineteenth century. Even so the fifteenth century octagonal font, the wagon roof and the fifty-foot long carved wooden rood screen are important historical features, as are several nineteenth century stained-glass windows.

The tower houses a heavy ring of eight bells which, with their lovely tone, are a joy to ring. The Friends of Chulmleigh Parish Church are active fund-raisers and contribute much to the maintenance of the building.

Recently some re-ordering has occurred: removal of some pews in front of the screen to provide room for music and drama, removal of pews at the back, providing café space and a kitchen, whilst a lavatory facility is planned.

The church is used by the Academy for its Harvest and Christmas services and by the Town for its Old Fair service and British Legion Parade Service of Remembrance in November. The church is host to Chulmleigh Society concerts, including some by the Young Musicians Support, and drama, as well as the North Devon and Children's Hospice Christmas ‘Light up a Life' service.

Charles I stayed here in 1634 when he held court (hence the name) and this is commemorated with an original coat of arms in one of the bedrooms, while a replica hangs above the fireplace in the main bar. Today this friendly, cosy local feat...

An old building which has been tastefully renovated. The menu is focussed on pizza and pasta and enjoys a good reputation. Two regular beers are kept, with an occasional guest, together with two real ciders.
