Tribute Cornwall/Devon League is an English level eight, rugby union league for clubs principally based in Cornwall and Devon. The champions and runner-up are promoted to Tribute Western Counties West. The number of teams relegated depends on feedback following promotion and relegation in the leagues above, but is usually two or three to Tribute Cornwall One and/or Tribute Devon One.

The current champions are Bude and the runner-up, St Ives, and both teams are promoted to Tribute Western Counties West. The bottom two teams Newquay Hornets and Exeter Saracens are (subject to confirmation) relegated to Tribute Cornwall One and Tribute Devon One respectively.
