The local area
The picturesque village of South Pool, with its pretty cottages and welcoming pub serving exceptional food, The Millbrook Inn, lies at the head of the idyllic South Pool Creek, an arm of the Kingsbridge and Salcombe Estuary.
The village is well located for walkers, who will enjoy the unspoilt countryside, as well as those who like messing about on their boats, or taking to the water on kayaks or paddle boards. It is also close to some fantastic sandy beaches at East Portlemouth, from where you can catch a passenger ferry across to the vibrant town of Salcombe, to appreciate the array of boutiques, pubs and restaurants that line the town's main street.
Just one and a half miles from South Pool you'll find the neighbouring creek-side village of Frogmore, home to a pub and excellent village shop and bakery. Further along the coast road towards the historic naval port of Dartmouth (which is well worth a day trip) you'll pass numerous appealing coastal villages on the way, including Torcross, with its nature reserve and three miles of shingle beach, and one of Devon's most popular beaches, Blackpool Sands.
Meanwhile, the market town of Kingsbridge is just 15 minutes' drive away and caters for all your holiday essentials.
A holiday cottage in South Pool provides an idyllic rural escape in stunning countryside on the edge of a beautiful tidal estuary.
