Considered to be one of the best-known coastal towns in Devon, Salcombe is located on the banks of an extraordinarily beautiful estuary (South Hams) surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside and gentle sands. Salcombe used to be an important port and shipbuilding centre and developed its fortune through trade with Europe and America by sea (there are many reminders of Salcombe’s rich seafaring heritage along various sections of the waterfront) . The permanent population is approximately 2000, but this number inflates enormously (greater than double) in the popular summer months when holidaymakers inundate Salcombe looking for a South Hams getaway.

Salcombe can be accessed primarily using the A381 (via Kingsbridge) or by using the rail link from Totnes. The harbour is the central hub of the town; it is always bustling with sailing and watersports activity and has many cafés located on the waterfront . The sandy beaches at North Sands and South Sands are extremely popular, and walkers will be able to enjoy walking some of the nicest parts of The South West Coast Path. National Trust properties located near to Salcombe include Overbeck’s (gardens) and the East Soar Estate, whilst English Heritage properties include the famous Dartmouth Castle located on the other side of the estuary. With fantastic scenery, exceptional facilities and countless outdoor pursuits, it takes very little time to see why Salcombe attractions are so endearing to visitors.
