Overview of Devon House

Devon House is a detached four-bedroom bungalow sleeping eight in Hope Cove, positioned in a small cul-de-sac overlooking National Trust countryside and the sea. Its combination of single-storey accommodation, ramped access and a large semi-accessible shower room makes it one of the more practical large holiday homes in the area for a multi-generational family or guests with mobility requirements.

All of the main accommodation is on one level. A spacious double-aspect living room takes advantage of the coastal outlook and includes enough seating for a full group, while the adjoining dining area has a table for eight. The separate kitchen has a breakfast bar and connects with a utility room, giving the house plenty of practical space for a week-long family stay.

The four bedrooms provide two king-size rooms and two twins, making the sleeping arrangement straightforward for families, couples and friends. Two separate washing facilities include a conventional family bathroom and a large shower room with a seat and handrails.

Outside, the rear garden has a raised furnished patio with countryside and sea views. Ramped access connects the house with the outdoor space, while ample private parking and a dedicated EV charger add further convenience.

Hope Cove's two sandy beaches, village shop, post office, pub and restaurants are all within walking distance. With the South West Coast Path passing through the village, Devon House works equally well for beach days, coastal walking and exploring the wider South Hams.

Devon House at a Glance

Who is Devon House Best For?

Devon House is particularly well suited to multi-generational families because every bedroom, bathroom and communal area is arranged on the ground floor.

Ramps provide access at both entrances and into the garden, while one of the shower rooms has a large cubicle with a seat and handrails. An access statement is available for guests who need to check specific measurements or mobility requirements before booking.

Families who do not need accessible accommodation still benefit from the uncomplicated single-level layout, particularly when younger children are part of the group.

Location & Things to Do Near Devon House

Devon House sits above Hope Cove, giving guests easy access to one of the South Hams' best-known seaside villages while retaining views across the surrounding National Trust coastline. The village is formed around Inner Hope and Outer Hope, with two sandy beaches offering plenty of choice for swimming, rock pooling, paddleboarding and relaxed family beach days.

Mouthwell Sands at Outer Hope is especially popular with families and watersports enthusiasts, while Inner Hope has a more sheltered setting and gently shelving sand. Beachside cafés, pubs, restaurants and the village shop mean it is easy to spend a full day by the water without heading elsewhere for food or supplies.

The South West Coast Path passes straight through Hope Cove and gives walkers excellent options in both directions. Head east around Bolt Tail and the cliffs rise towards Bolberry Down, with wide views across Bigbury Bay and along the South Devon coastline. The circular Hope Cove, Bolt Tail and Bolberry Down route is approximately 4.8 miles and mixes dramatic cliff scenery with quieter inland paths.

Walk west and the coast path leads towards South Milton Sands and Thurlestone. South Milton is popular for swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking and rock pooling, with the distinctive Thurlestone Rock just offshore.

Salcombe is approximately four miles away for sailing, independent shops, restaurants and passenger ferries, while Kingsbridge is around five miles away for larger food shops, cafés and access to the upper estuary.

With beaches, coast-path walking and village facilities all within easy reach, Devon House gives a group plenty to enjoy without needing to drive every day.
