Top South Sands Hotel Reviews

Gara Rock

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly and attentive staff. Room was very clean and tidy. Food was delicious, indoor and outdoor pool were very nice and relaxing. Will hopefully be returning in the near future!"

Harbour Beach Club & Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Sumptuous beds a mile high with pillow soft toppers and silken sheets. Staff lovely, restaurant nice. Had rear room so no sea view but still nice open field to caravan site and balcony a 6pm sun trap, perfect for a pre dinner read. The extras the hotel offer make it fabulous; a room to store paddle board, lending you wetsuits, beach and picnic stuff etc. Car park busy (July) but nice chaps managing to help everyone. South Sands in front of you, rather challenging hill to next door North Sands beach both on foot and driving the single track road. Parking in Salcombe the stuff of nightmares so lean into hotel shuttle but book more than a day ahead for evening restaurant jaunts as only 6 seats each hour. (Think they should increase frequency when over booked). Sea tractor/ferry to Salcombe lovely but £18 each way for family of 4. Would choose again."

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!"
