1. Harbour Hotel Salcombe

1.5 km from South Sands

"Booked a “best estuary” view room and it did not disappoint, view was amazing and we had a lovely large balcony. We had fantastic weather for October so we made the most of this beautiful location. Hotel staff were super helpful, breakfast was good and we also used the Spa which was a nice bonus. All in all would definitely return, location of this hotel is perfect for winderful views and short walking distance to all that Salcombe has to offer."

Top South Sands Hotel Reviews

Harbour Hotel Salcombe

10/10 Excellent

Harbour Beach Club & Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Just had 4 nights at The Harbour Beach and Spa, the whole experience was excellent from start to finish."

2 North Crest House

10/10 Excellent

"The house in Salcombe was beautiful and had everything we needed and a bit more! Beds were so comfortable. The views were incredible from every window in the house. Perfect location for visiting the town which is short walk away and also going out of town to visit other places. A truly gorgeous scenic area."

22 Bolt Head

8/10 Good

"The property was fine, being met with a pair of underpants on the outside banister didn’t bode well, but once inside it was fine. We are in our seventies so going downstairs in the morning with two cups of tea wasn’t ideal but we worked around it. The place was clean and very well equipped although we ate out every day. Salcombe is very niche and expensive although very beautiful and the natives were friendly enough. There are some lovely views a hilly walk away. There are National Trust gardens almost next door. We cut our holiday short as the weather was bad. I am a nervous passenger and driving round those Devonshire country lanes is not for the faint hearted so trips out were not a thing we did. Where 22 Bolt head is is a long walk, a ferry trip or a 10 minute drive away from Salcombe. The owners should be proud of 22, it is decorated tastefully. I would suggest getting some new jigsaws as the ones I did all had pieces missing!"
