Overlooking an arm of the Salcombe-Kingsbridge Estuary, this home not only has a stunning waterfront view in its arsenal, but the rolling countryside packs a pretty impressive punch, too. For that very valid reason, we recommend spending as much time as possible out on the decked terrace – whether that’s in the hot tub or simply enjoying a cup of coffee in one of the outdoor chairs is completely up to you, as long as you’re keeping an eye on the horizon. 

Popular with paddle boarders, you might even spot a few going by when you’re taking in the water views. If you’re eager to try it out for yourself, there’s a rental place a five-minute walk away and they’ll see that you’re joining the fray in no time. Prefer to admire the water from afar? Also completely fine, and you might find yourself frequenting the famous Crabshell Inn. With its waterfront position, you’re able to appreciate the surroundings while you sip a pint, and it’s only a five-minute stroll away from home. 

Explore the market town of Kingsbridge, drive to Salcombe and visit as much of South Devon as you can manage in between all of the relaxation you’ll be doing in this home. Kindle a fire in the wood-burning stove and sit back with a glass of wine as you watch the world go by through the floor to ceiling windows.

This Georgian beauty set along the Salcombe-Kingsbridge estuary offers luxury and style in equal measure. Thanks to a sympathetic extension, there’s room for all ten of you to pile in at this design-savvy home. Spill out into the smart drawing room with a log burner and glorious views over the estuary, or sneak into the second sitting room for some quiet time. Outside, the manicured lawns lead down to a private quay and shingle beach – perfect for paddling or crab fishing at low tide. Fancy a change of scene? Central Kingsbridge, with an established restaurant scene, is just a ten-minute walk away.  

The Ambassador's Retreat

Paid Parking

Throws

Located in Kingsbridge, this delightful Victorian home offers a wonderfully comfortable base from which to explore the market town’s sights, as well as the delights of the South Devon AONB. 

Styled with a modern touch yet retaining much of its historic charm, you’ll find a welcoming open-plan living area decorated with nautical prints and boasting ample natural light. We’re particularly fond of the wood-burning fire here that invites cosy evenings enjoying the warmth of its glow over a glass of wine. 

Upstairs, meanwhile, you’ll find a pair of comfortable bedrooms beckoning a restful night’s sleep, while outside, the private leafy garden is the ideal spot to enjoy alfresco breakfasts and celebratory sundowners when you’re not out sampling the local pubs. 

Speaking of exploring, you’ve got a wealth of things to see and do nearby, including the Kingsbridge Cookworthy Museum (a three-minute walk), Hope Cove (a seventeen-minute drive), as well as the South West Coast Path. 


Patchwork Sails

Board Games

Pool / Snooker Table

Outdoor Kitchen

Architecturally designed to focus on the breathtaking views of Bowcombe Creek, this home has large floor-to-ceiling windows and a contemporary touch.  Apart from the private gym, sauna and games room, there's an encouragement to take to the outdoors here. You'll find gear for paddleboarding and kayaking in the boat house. Stick to dry land with a few games on the basketball court or by strolling over two acres of woodland. Prefer a less active approach to holidaying? There's a hot tub to appreciate the rolling countryside from and a beautiful terraced outdoor section with a pizza oven.  Gorgeous, tranquil and practical – seems like a winning combination to us.

An Old Boat Ride Home

EV Charger

Rolling hills, hot tubs and contemporary design are on the cards at this standout home designed by renowned architect Stan Bolt. Perched in the peaceful village of West Charleton and surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, its setting is idyllic. Inside, discover three well-proportioned bedrooms boasting floor-to-ceiling windows to let the outside in and a palatial primary bedroom suite with a private deck and hot tub for the ultimate relaxation. Outside, kids will love exploring the labyrinth of gardens, with water features and a shepherd's hut offering spectacular views across the South Hams. Ready for a change of scene? Charming Salcombe is just a fifteen-minute drive, and Slapton Sands are even closer. 

The Garden Song

Fancy a romantic getaway with a twist? This upside-down home places a firelit living area above the bedroom, where the en-suite bathtub enjoys a framed view of the creek. Upstairs, we think the waterside terrace might inspire a paddle to Salcombe – made easy by the three-seater kayak your host provides. It's worth noting that there is a bit of a hike to the front door here (thirty-six steps, to be precise), so this home won't be the best option for everyone. 

The Great Outward

Ping Pong Table

Swimming Pool

Heated Pool

Safety Gates

One of six natural stone cottages tucked away within a secluded valley between Dartmouth and Salcombe, this home's location is idyllic. With no local amenities to walk to, you'll need a car to get out and about. Though you're rarely a fifteen-minute drive from South Devon's sheltered coves and South Ham's water's edge is even closer. There's plenty to keep everyone busy within the cottage's vast communal grounds, too. Think shared indoor heated pool, tennis court, playground, communal lawns and alfresco terraces. Prefer a little more privacy? That wood-burning fire and small suntrap terrace back at the elegant cottage should do nicely.

Devon Blue

Tucked away in a secluded valley, yet with South Ham's water's edge and Devon's beaches a short drive away, the setting of this cottage is one of a kind. Part of an impressive country estate, kids will love the shared indoor heated pool, tennis court, playground and vast communal lawns found within the grounds – not to mention the trampoline, slide, climbing frame, sit-on tractors and football pitch. It's worth noting this elegant cottage only has a small private courtyard leading off the kitchen. But with those shared terraces overlooking the valley for barbecues and pizza oven nights, we can forgive that.

A Devon Dream 

Tucked within the grounds of a private estate, this cosy cottage delivers a great solution for those in search of comfort, warmth and family fun. From the communal indoor swimming pool and tennis court to the gym and kids’ playground, you’ll find plenty to keep everyone entertained. This won’t be the best option if you’re looking for total seclusion, but you will have a private terrace, snug rooms and a wood-burning fire. It’s also in a great location – the Salcombe-Kingsbridge Estuary and the sandy beaches of south Devon are within easy driving distance. 

Rustic Joy

Ceiling Fans

Paid Parking On Street

This beautiful pet-friendly home in Salcombe offers coastal charm in spades. Laid out over two floors, you’ll find thoughtful touches at every turn, from the wine fridge and Sonos speaker system to the Juliet balcony with creek views and the luxurious en-suite with its freestanding tub. Outside, meanwhile, the home ups the ante with a sunny front patio, as well as a back garden complete with a gazebo for alfresco dining, gas and charcoal barbecues and a pizza oven. It’s ideally located a short stroll from Island Street where you can nip over to its artisanal shops for morning croissants and essentials, while Salcombe Castle and the nearby beaches can easily be reached by car.

Fenced Property

This barn makes an excellent option for a rustic retreat in the heart of the South Devon countryside. Along with the idyllic views, you’ll be welcomed by neutral yet snug rooms (the living area features a cosy log burner) as well as a secure private garden – an ideal spot for children and pups to explore. And when it comes to adventures further afield, it’s just a fifteen-minute drive to the local beaches at Bantham and Bigbury-on-Sea, while beautiful walking trails can be followed straight from the door. 

A Tale From The Farm

DVD Library

Sauna

More a way of life than a holiday home, this unique stay offers a wealth of outdoor activities and add-on experiences. Aimed at families who like to get out into the fresh air, it's a fabulous country house in an idyllic rural setting. Right on the River Avon, it's the perfect spot for wild swimming with a rope swing and river plunge pool in the garden. Set in its own pretty grounds, the rustic farmhouse can trace its roots back to the 12th century and has plenty of character. Stone floors, oak beams and fireplaces are topped off with comfy furnishings and a lived-in, home from home feel. We love the living room with its exposed stone wall and cosy sofas around the fire. Bedrooms are all of a good size and even the bathrooms are stylish. Ideal for a large family group, you can cook meals in the country kitchen and serve them at the huge dining table, or barbecue outside on the Argentinian grill on warmer evenings. If the lure of the water has called you here, you can spend days playing in the river, or hop into the twelve-man hot tub. Head off for walks nearby or just let the kids bounce on the trampoline while you sit back with a cold beer on the sun loungers. Other add-ons include sea fishing with the host and taking time out in the log-fired sauna in the grounds. And it's just a short drive to Kingsbridge and the coast if you fancy a change of scene.

River Dipping

Just outside Salcombe, this two-storey home places you amongst rolling hills and an idyllic lake. The living areas, offering up incredible views, are perfect spots for relaxing after a hike, but it's outdoors where this home really comes to life – there are 2.5 acres of private gardens to explore, and the home even has its own private slipway on the lake. Fancy trying out paddleboarding? Speak with your host to arrange to hire a couple throughout your stay.

The Oasis House

This stylish seaside haven is steps from Salcombe's vibrant high street and water's edge. Not that you'd know, sat in the oh-so-peaceful, Mediterranean-style terraces back home. Perfect for a multi-generational family stay, there's an annexe bedroom with a useful kitchenette, en-suite shower room, and projector cinema screen for anyone wanting their own space. While over in the main house, discover three elegant bedrooms, each with a sleek bathroom. The cosy sitting room and log-burning fires are a nice touch for hunkering down on winter nights. And that made-for-action kitchen with double dishwashers and a sizable wine fridge will make entertaining a breeze. 

Salcombe Muse

Set just off Salcombe's bustling high street, you couldn't dream up a more central location for this stylish home. Not that you'd know it sat on the oh-so-private terrace of this palatial property. Offering practicality and style in equal measure, the orangery dining room is a delight – and that designer kitchen with twin dishwashers and wine fridges makes entertaining a breeze. With flexible arrangements for each bedroom, which are spaced apart over three floors, this home perfectly suits big groups looking to holiday together without crowding each other.

Sea Salt Waves

Situated in a private gated development, this penthouse apartment is all about the views. Easily accessible courtesy of the lift from the covered parking area, head on up to the third floor and you’ll find an open-plan, light-filled space waiting to welcome you home. The sea vistas are best enjoyed from the balcony over a glass of wine, but you’re spoilt with scenery from most parts of this home – fling open the bi-fold doors and take it all in. Better still, Salcombe's centre is just a short stroll away, so you'll never be too far from shops, eateries and the water.

The Olde English

Parking On Premises

Outdoor Shower

Perched directly on the South West Coast Path, this penthouse apartment is all out the panoramic sea views. We reckon you'll spend most of your time on the private balcony. Sip wine, spot seals, or simply bask in the seaside scenery – no matter what you get up to, it's a little slice of heaven. Need a break from the sunshine? The living area has an open-plan layout ideal for socialising, while each bedroom is as comfortable as the next. With Hope Cove’s eateries within walking distance and the beach just a short stroll away, it has everything you need for a laid-back stay on the South Devon coast.

Coastline Jewel

Just a short stroll from the centre of Salcombe, this apartment is a refreshing coastal escape. The rooms are bright and breezy, the balcony has beautiful views across the estuary and we love the sweet extras like the Sonos sound system, Netflix and The White Company toiletries. Families should note that child-friendly amenities aren’t available here and that little ones will need to be supervised in the communal garden. Still, it’s a fantastic location with easy access to East Portlemouth's beaches, as well as hiking trails through the surrounding countryside – not to mention private parking for adventures further afield.

The Sea From Here

Set in the heart of bustling Salcombe, this former fisherman's cottage is a delightful place to call home. As you can expect, the interior has plenty of coastal charm, though it is a tad snug upstairs. All the contemporary comforts are accounted for, be it underfloor heating or White Company toiletries. Evenings call for cocktails in the front courtyard – there's a distillery just across the street where you can sample local gin. Also within walking distance are Salcombe's artisan shops, independent eateries, and picturesque harbour, perfect for dog walks in the sun.

Just a five-minute stroll from Salcombe's waters, you'll find this seaside beauty housed in a handsome Georgian villa apartment surrounded by landscaped gardens.

Inside, this place is the epitome of good taste – and we'd expect nothing less from arguably the prettiest village on the South Devon coast. The interior designer host has effortlessly nailed coastal chic, fusing muted blues and greys, tasteful seascapes on the wall, and dashes of driftwood.

Sunny mornings call for lazy alfresco breakfasts in your private garden to steal a glimpse of the nearby sea, hills and fields beyond. Meanwhile, kids and furry friends can run off some energy on the lawns  – the village park, just a one-minute walk away, can help with that too. 

When it's time for some seaside nostalgia, spend bucket-and-spade days down on Salcombe's sandy beaches – just a twenty-minute scenic stroll along the coastal path past the ruins of the village's castle fort. Up the ante with sailing, kayaking, and surfing on the estuary (a five-minute stroll away). Or mooch along to the cafes, restaurants, traditional pubs and ice cream parlours of the village's well-heeled high street (two minutes from your door) – you'll be in good company.

Salcombe Seascape

Right on the water’s edge and surrounded by Batson Creek on three sides is this Salcombe home. Boasting two moorings, two outdoor terraces and a barbecue, it’s an ideal place to base yourself during your Devonshire stay. While you’ll be able to enjoy the tranquillity of this location, you’ll also benefit from the proximity of Salcombe’s independent boutiques and fish and chip shops. After a day kayaking (your host provides guests with two to use), what could be better than an alfresco dinner overlooking the bay?

This apartment lies on the shores of Salcombe's South Sands beach, with lovely views from the private balcony. Both bedrooms enjoy their own en-suites and the kitchen is fully equipped for preparing family meals or romantic dinners. To top it all off your host can help arrange a cooked breakfast and concierge services for an additional fee.

Sailor's Cove

In the heart of pretty Salcombe, just a minute’s walk from the harbour, this breezy apartment is the perfect base from which to explore the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Dating back to the 17th century, you’ll notice vaulted ceilings and timber beams have been lovingly restored to provide timeless character among the modern comforts. The open-concept layout makes for easy entertaining – keep up with conversations as you tend to dinner in the stylish kitchen. For evenings when you’d rather hang up your apron, you’re footsteps from pubs offering hearty fare and fine ale. Spend sunny afternoons watching boats bob in the quay or pack a picnic and take the leisurely twenty-minute walk to North Salcombe Sands, where clear azure waters and rock pools teeming with crabs await. 

Harbour Breeze

Outdoor Fireplace / Firepit

This 250-year-old thatched cottage will charm you from the get-go. It's tucked down a winding lane surrounded by rolling countryside, sandwiched between Hope Cove and Salcombe. There's no doubt the location is impressive, but we reckon the home is even better. The garden is the epitome of outdoor living, with a bubbling hot tub, a summerhouse, and a panoramic terrace. You can toast marshmallows around the fire pit, or when the weather turns, head inside to the drawing room and get cosy in front of the fire. The cherry on top is the shepherd's hut, where a lucky couple can unwind in total privacy. No wonder English Home Magazine deemed it a 'must-stay' on the Devon coast.

Shepherd's Sweet

Knockout estuary views, a sleepy village location, and design kudos to boot – there’s a lot to love about this exquisite South Devon home. Designed by renowned architect Stan Bolt, floor-to-ceiling windows allow you to soak up the glorious vistas whatever the weather, and there’s a wood-fired hot tub, cosy shepherds hut and large deck overlooking the Salcombe-Kingsbridge estuary for alfresco living. Set in the quiet village of West Charleton, you’ll need a car when it’s time to explore. Make the glorious sands of Salcombe your first port of call – it’s just a fifteen-minute drive away.

Skyward Retreat

This pet-friendly Fisherman's cottage sits along the sea wall of Victoria Quay, offering stunning views over the estuary and beaches of East Portlemouth. We think this home is best suited to families and couples looking for a quiet and cosy stay. The bunk beds are great for kids (but are sturdy enough for small adults), and the main bed can be configured as a super king or twin singles. You'll be close to Salcombe's high street, though you'll want a car for day trips to the nearest beaches.

The River At My Back

This waterfront apartment boasting sweeping views of Salcombe's estuary lets you do bucket-and-spade breaks in style and luxury. With each serene bedroom offering an en-suite bathroom, it's an excellent choice for guests who value a little extra privacy. When you're ready to dive into the seaside action, Salcombe's bustling high street – lined with local pubs and restaurants – is just a stroll away. In need of some rejuvenation? You're welcome to use the swish hotel spa and swimming pool right next door for a discounted rate. 

The Fisherman's Tale

Located within a charming Victorian house overlooking Salcombe Bay is this lovely apartment. The full-height arched windows flood this space with light and allow guests to enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding area. You’re just a short walk from Salcombe High Street, and if you wish to drive, you’ll be pleased to know there’s parking here (it’s a shared driveway with your neighbour). And while the outdoor dining set is a little sun-bleached, it’s a lovely spot to enjoy alfresco breakfasts and barbecue dinners. Inside, the open-plan kitchen and dining room are perfect for entertaining family and friends, while the living room is an inviting space to share a few games of cards.

The Little Sailor

Sun Loungers / Beach Chairs

This Georgian home in South Devon’s Chillington sits on an acre of land and offers a quintessential rural retreat. Pull on the wellies provided by your host, help yourself to the apples growing in the orchard and cook up a crumble in the country-style kitchen. When it comes to tucking in, groups of more than ten will need to spread across two dining tables – perfect for adults and children looking to chat amongst themselves. The beautifully-appointed bedrooms are spread across three floors, so expect to climb some stairs here. And after an afternoon of croquet in the garden, the group can either socialise together or split off for quiet time thanks to the two welcoming sitting rooms.

River Rush

This charming cottage is perfect for couples looking for a relaxing break in idyllic surroundings. It’s tucked away in attractive grounds that feature a secret garden as well as communal facilities including a heated indoor pool, tennis courts, and a gym. There’s also a play area for little ones, and a great entertaining space that can be hired for events and functions. The cottage is cosy and comfortable, with a patio area that’s the perfect spot for alfresco dining in the summer. Best of all, you’ll be a short drive from the beaches of Salcombe and Hope Cove. 

Devonshire Violets

You won't be short of things to do with a stay at this South Devon cottage set on a country estate. Expect a shared indoor swimming pool, gym, tennis court, a kid's playground, and so the list goes on. If you don't feel like being sociable, there's a private courtyard back at home for summer months and a wood-burning fire to hunker down beside in winter. Set in a small, secluded valley, you'll need a car to get out and about here. But we don't think you'll mind, with South Hams and Bantham Beach both just a short drive away.

Devonshire Delight

Free Parking

Situated in the quaint village of Frogmore, this captivating country cottage offers panoramic waterfront views and is the ultimate bolthole for guests looking to rest, recharge and enjoy some quality time together. 

Soak up the sun on the south-facing balcony and enjoy the remarkable Salcombe-Kingsbridge Estuary view. The space offers options for everyone to make lasting memories with the array of garden games for unforgettable summer fun, a six-foot pool table for some friendly competition and the use of three kayaks to explore the estuary using the home’s own slipway access to Frogmore Creek. 

For those looking for some quiet downtime, the sunbeds and summer house are perfect for curling up with a good book while barbecue enthusiasts can whip up a feast in the fresh air. When the temperature drops, cosy up by the wood burner in the living area for a movie night or take turns stargazing through the telescope in the snug.

If you can bring yourself to leave, there's plenty to explore right on your doorstep. South Devon's chic seaside town of Salcombe is 9 miles away, the picturesque town of Dartmouth is twenty-five minutes by car, while the hippie haven of Totnes is half an hour away.

Paddle Creek

Transporting you right to the water’s edge, this apartment makes the ideal setting for a refreshing coastal escape. You’ll be a short stroll from the nearby beaches, as well as Salcombe’s main attractions. If you happen to own a boat, you can set sail straight from the private slipway and adventure along the coast. And for those in search of pure relaxation, the terrace provides the perfect spot to sit back and soak in the estuary views. Guests should also note the living room and kitchen are on the top floor with stair access, so this may not be the best option for those with reduced mobility. 


The Blue Harp

Tucked away in a peaceful but central part of Salcombe, this home had our attention the second we caught those views. With a raised position and spread over three floors, the windows are perfect for watching the town’s iconic harbour. Downstairs, the large living space combines the dining room, kitchen, and living room, meaning guests can easily break off into smaller groups while still being together. Nearby, the adventurous can try crabbing along Victoria Quay or even have a go at paddle boarding. You’ll also want to take advantage of the free parking permit, ideal for exploring even more of Devon’s stunning coastline.

The Seashells for Days

There’s no chance of forgetting where you are when you stay in The Bowline. The nautical theme runs through the entire apartment (and when you head out, the entire town of Salcombe), but with good reason. This part of south Devon has some of the most picturesque coast in the country, so it makes sense that the area emphasises that. The apartment itself is charming, with a real homely atmosphere. It’s not huge, but if you don’t try to pack it out, it’s plenty big enough, and Diana’s hosting is top-notch, which goes a very long way.
