About this property

Just a stone’s throw from the chic seaside town of Salcombe in Devon, dog-friendly Soar Mill Cove Hotel & Spa offers warm and welcoming hospitality in a picturesque coastal setting. Nestled within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Special Scientific Interest,

Soar Mill Cove Hotel & Spa overlooks the most dramatic seascape and provides the perfect destination for a romantic coastal break or a family holiday with your canine companion. Brimming with charm, and history, this was once the haunt of Audrey Hepburn and her Salcombe ‘in’ crowd, the hotel was originally the officer's mess for RAF Bolt Head and Spitfire Attack squadron of WWII. Today the hotel provides beautiful bedrooms with crisp cotton sheets, snuggle-in pillows and ocean views with every comfort and luxury you could wish for!

Soar Mill Cove also offers guests a varied calendar of social events, from New Years Eve parties - with a full casino and opportunities for a sing-song, to romantic Valentine's packages. If it's a pampering day, or perhaps a spa weekend you're looking for, the Discovery Spa is waiting. Unwind in the spring-fed heated saltwater pool or restore your spirits with a blissful massage and sauna. If you are looking to plan a special event, the team at Soar Mill Cove are well versed in special occasions of all kinds, from parties to weddings, you can insure that Fido is sure to be included!

Voted by The Telegraph as one of the top 10 dog-friendly hotels in Devon, Soar Mill Cove even has a warm dog wash for muddy paws after a day at the pet-friendly beach with your four-legged friend. As featured in the PetsPyjamas 2019 Travel Edit, Soar Mill Cove offers the perfect holiday destination for coastal pups time and time again!
