About Bolberry Down
The terraced cottages are in the quiet hamlet of Bolberry, within walking distanceof Bolberry Down (0.5 mile) and Hope Cove (1 mile).
Bolberry lies between Salcombe and Hope Cove on the South West Coastal Path and is set amidst acres of National Trust coastal countryside.
Walk west to Bolt Tail or east to sandy Soar Mill Cove or merely sit and enjoy the views from the cliffs with their great variety of wild flowers and birds. A particularly good time to visit Bolberry Down is in the evening, when the sight of the sun setting over the sea will be an unforgettable memory.
The scenery is outstanding with wildlife literally on the door step, including badgers, foxes with their cubs, rabbits and peregrins, making it an ideal base from which to enjoy the natural beauties of southernmost Devon.
Our hotel and restaurant, Port Light, is situated on Bolberry Down and commands 360 degree panoramic views encompassing Dartmoor and Cornish headlands.
