The property

A perfect choice for a seaside holiday, this well presented holiday home at West Park is conveniently positioned on the edge of the South Hams village of Hope Cove, five minutes walk from the pubs and restaurants that overlook the cove and the popular sandy beach, reputed to be one of the best on the South Coast. A fishing village now more famous for landing crabs and lobster, Hope Cove was once a favourite haunt for smugglers and still retains all the intimacy and charm of its characterful past. The area is also renowned for its unique flora and fauna with a nature reserve close by at Slapton Ley. Hope Cove holds immense appeal for families who wish to enjoy a traditional beach holiday, children will have hours of fun building sandcastles and dams and exploring the rock pools for crabs and small fish. If you decide on a change of scenery you will be spoilt for choice as the area has a wealth of sandy beaches and coves. The popular sailing resort of Salcombe lies just 2 miles away and for those keen to experience the dramatic beauty of this South Devon coastline on foot, follow the South West Coastal Path from the beach that will take you through Salcombe and Thurlestone and other coastal villages.

About the location

HOPE COVE

Salcombe 4.6 miles; Kingsbridge 5.1 miles

The picturesque and unspoiled village of Hope Cove lies in the sheltered curve of Bigbury Bay on Devon’s south coast. A choice destination for families, the two beaches offering soft sand and rock pools for sandcastle building and fishing for small crabs. The town remains a fishing village where crabs and lobsters are still landed, however it was once used by smugglers. Many ships have perished around the coast and the wrecks that lie beneath the waves make it a popular spot for divers. Above the beach there are a number of pubs and restaurants. The coastal footpath can be joined from here and leads towards Bigbury-on-sea in one direction and the coastal resort of Salcombe in the other.
