Cottage With Sea Views And Direct Access Onto Coastal Path

East Soar is a beautiful farm cottage located on the South West coastal path and a stone's throw away from the quaint sea side town of Salcombe. The cottage provides excellent accommodation for those that want to get away from it all and is set in the most spectacular of settings with sea views all around. There are several spectacular sandy beaches within easy walking distance including Starehole Bay, Soar Mill Cove and South Sands. The cottage is perfect for family holidays, friends wanting to get together or couples looking for a romantic break. Walkers and birdwatchers are most welcome and you will not be disappointed with what the area has to offer. There is a small tea shop on the farm where you can indulge in home baked cakes and soups with various other refreshments also available. Logs for the wood burner is provided at no extra cost. Meals can also be provided by prior arrangement.

A lovely getaway
We had a wonderful time at East Soar farm. The kids enjoyed being surrounded by the animals and we did the splendid walk to Salcombe Beach and back. The apartment has just what you need in order to cook, sleep and shower and was very clean upon arrival. We felt very welcome and well taken care off.

Idyllic location in cozy accommodation
We enjoyed 3 nights in this comfortable and homely cottage which adjoins the main farm house. Plenty of room for our family of four and everything in perfect working order and condition. Particularly enjoyed the wood burning stove! We were given a warm welcome by our hosts who were informative about our surroundings and always happy to help with our queries. The location is absolutely perfect for cliff walks and 2 minutes brings you to the coastal path and the most stunning views of the sparkling sea. We were blessed with sunny days which added to the breathtaking panorama. 45 minutes walk turning left along the coast brings you to South Sands and thereafter, North Sands and finally Salcombe itself which was heaving with visitors due to the Easter weekend and glorious weather. It was bliss to escape the hoards and return to our peaceful cottage. Would definitely return!

Wonderful escape from urban life
Beautiful location and excellent hosts. We loved our stay here. Had thought it might get a bit chilly but the log fire and heaters made it toasty warm, even in the blustery weather. Everything you could need or want for a break from it all. Highly recommend.

Comfortable cottage in idyllic setting
We arrived at the cottage, carefully following the owners instructions. Whilst it was late and very dark, we didnt get lost! Set adjacent to the main farmhouse, the property was very welcoming with a large entrance hall with plenty of hooks and space for coats, boots etc. Into the main sitting room - a very effective log burner, sofa, dining table & chairs and suitably equipped kichen. Also a good size bedroom. Upstairs 2 further bedrooms - one big double with sea view and the other with bunk beds, plus a good size family bathroom inc shower over the bath. Whilst its the end of october, we were never cold with the use of bedroom heaters and log burner.. You could stay in winter. The star of stay has to be the location - set in beautiful countryside, close to the coastal path. Yes, the position is extremely rural and the access road is more suited to a 4x4, but you could do it in normal car if you are careful - we did. It's a dreamy South Devon holiday let with helpful owners who couldnt do enough for us! And thank you for the fresh eggs for our breakfast, which in warmer months, we would have eaten on the courtyard. Almost forgot to tell you about the donkeys, white horse, sheep, pretty cats and friendly golden retrievers.... Happy memories

Beautiful location
The house is in one of the most beautiful locations in the country. The countryside around the property is absolutely stunning. The most wonderful walks from the door. The farmer and his wife and family were extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful and couldn't have been nicer. They were extremely tolerant of our 6 month old labrador puppy. The farm is a wonderful place for children as there are lots of animals and it is all extremely neat and tidy. The cottage is simple but very comfortable and well equipped. My only negative comment would be that there were no side lights in the sitting room. The bed was really comfortable and the whole cottage felt very clean. Thank you to the Herselmans for a wonderful stay.

Fabulous location. Perfect home from home
The walks from a east soar and the surrounding countryside and coast path are beautiful. The peregrine can be seen on the headlands. The swimming in the coves and beaches perfect. The place is well set up and enjoyed a lovely cosy night with the wood burner going. Lovely hosts and animals at the farm. All in all a great trip and our dogs were welcomed which is always appreciated

The most incredible break
This place is situated in a beautiful farm in East soar. On arrival the directions given were spot on. We were greeted by the family dogs sitting peacefully on the stone drive. The view was unreal......I literally couldn’t believe we were in England. After settling in we just wanted to look at the breathtaking views. They were stunning.The location is sensational with various animals roaming the fields. I can’t recommend the location, the farm ,the family,the whole thing was outstanding. We were treated like extended family and I can’t thank schalk and his family for being so kind and friendly . The pop up refreshments barn is simply superb,with toilet facilities too. There were so many lovely cakes,drinks and crisps it really was brilliant. We’ve found our yearly staycation Thank you for an amazing experience Chris
