The Cottage Hotel - A cliffside hotel in Hope Cove with sea-view rooms, a terrace, and traditional Devonshire dining

The Cottage Hotel overlooks Hope Cove from its cliffside location, offering 35 individually styled rooms with private bathrooms, free Wi-Fi, and sea views. Premier Balcony Rooms feature large private balconies with loungers, while standard options include smaller balconies or no views in budget rooms. Guests can enjoy daily Devonshire Cream Tea on the terrace or a five-course Table d'Hôte dinner in the restaurant, where harp melodies accompany evening meals. The hotel provides free on-site parking, though space is limited, and electric vehicle charging is available. Hope Cove's sandy beaches, the South West Coast Path, and nearby landmarks like Thurlestone Beach and Salcombe Maritime Museum are within walking distance. The Cottage Hotel has been family-run since 1973, maintaining a traditional atmosphere.

Pros

Sea-view rooms feature private balconies, some with loungers and refrigerators.

The restaurant serves traditional Devonshire meals, including Sunday roast and lobster options.

Free on-site parking and electric vehicle charging facilities.

Dog-friendly rooms and public areas, excluding luxury accommodations.

Cons

Limited parking with tight spaces on the lower level.

Budget rooms face kitchen noise from early morning until late evening.

“This family-run hotel clearly understands hospitality; the staff is frequently mentioned as going above and beyond. Nestled in Hope Cove, the location provides stunning sea views from many rooms, especially the updated ones with balconies. The food, especially the cream tea, is also a highlight.”
