Golden sands, rolling hills and coastal towns

Salcombe sits in one of South Devon’s most beautiful corners, with golden beaches, the shimmering Kingsbridge Estuary and some of the region’s most dramatic coastal scenery around every turn. Explore the South West Coast Path, enjoy time on the water, or simply soak up the unhurried pace of one of Devon’s most cherished seaside towns. At the heart of it all is the Victoria Inn, your welcoming base for great food, award-winning ales and a truly relaxing experience.

Overbeck's Museum & Garden


The former home to scientist and inventor, Otto Overbeck, this hidden paradise is found tucked into the cliffs above Salcombe. Today, it’s a museum and subtropical gardens that together form part of an estate maintained by the National Trust.
