    “We had a lovely stay in 5 Fairhaven, there was some initial confusion over how many dogs were accepted, on the advert it states ‘pet friendly’ but in the small print it states only one dog… anyway after a while of trying to get in touch, Sykes managed to sort it with the owner and we could take our two borders, who absolutely loved it!”

    The location is perfect, short walk to north beach and a little bit further on is south beach.

    The location is perfect, short walk to north beach and a little bit further on is south beach. The accommodation is perfectly well equipped and maintained, stunning views on the balcony each evening. Parking was a little tight with other cars making it a little difficult to navigate into the apartments allocated space.

We had lovely time in Salcombe and would certainly stay at Fairhaven again.

About the location

SALCOMBE

Kingsbridge 7 miles; Dartmouth 21 miles; Plymouth 24 miles; Paignton 26 miles.

Salcombe is a popular destination for walkers and families looking for a holiday by the sea and was once a major port. There are two pretty beaches within a short distance, North Sands and South Sands and further on is the National Trust property Overbeck’s where you can wander through the subtropical gardens. Why not have a more adventurous day and try out the watersports available on the estuary including surfing, kayaking or a more leisurely boat trip? Whilst staying in Salcombe you must take advantage of the locally sourced seafood which is served in many of the restaurants, pubs, cafés and delicatessens. The southern tip of Devon provides some spectacular scenery and picturesque vistas with a number of sandy beaches, lovely villages with thatched cottages and some fantastic opportunities for walking, including the South West Coast path.

£25 per pet per week supplement

Strictly No Smoking
