With two great local pubs, the excellent Stokely Farm Shop and Restaurant, and many fantastic beaches and beautiful countryside on your doorstep, it is a great spot for a holiday in Devon.
There are many picturesque country walks in the surrounding area, as well as the magnificent South West Coast Path which can be joined at Torcross, a dog-friendly pebble beach with breathtaking views across Start Bay. The Slapton Ley Nature Reserve is a fresh water lake here separated from the sea by a narrow strip of shingle, and home to many species of rare birds and wildlife.
The market town of Kingsbridge, at the head of the Salcombe Estuary, lies some 6 miles or so to the west, whilst the historic naval town of Dartmouth is just a little further in the opposite direction along the spectacularly rugged cliff top coast road, that also takes in the popular beach at Blackpool Sands en route.
Stokenham is a delightful village for spending a relaxing and enjoyable break in South Devon.

Very poor. Overpriced food (don't order the duck breast @£16 unless you're on a super low calorie diet). Beer too cold and expensive. I used to like the charm of the pub before it was renovated, now just lacks atmosphere.

Good and friendly pub. Fish and chips excellent.

Very friendly and welcoming staff. Great garden with outside bar and very attentive restaurant staff, nothing was too much trouble. The quality and presentation of the food was exceptional. We felt happy to eat inside with tables well distanced and cleaned after previous customers, while staff and customers, when moving around the eating areas, were expected to wear masks. So much so we frequented the outside bar and the restaurant numerous times while on holiday in the village. A great place to eat after a tiring day on the beach.

Lovely farm shop with a wide range of products available and a nice cafe. It was within easy walking distance of Torcross which was great due to the closure of the local shop. The best bit was the adjacent South Hams brewery. With a great selection of locally brewed craft ales and ciders and delicious food available from the cafe next door it was a great way to spend a damp afternoon avoiding Storm Ciara!

We love this place, probably popped in most days for delicious meat, cheese and treats. We don't eat out often as our dog is nervous around dogs that get too close so eating in can feel like a chore. But with lovely grub from a friendly shop, it becomes a treat. Plus it's supporting the local trade which is so important.
June 2017
Always a favourite for breakfast and for stocking up on delicious things for our holidays in Torcross. The tractor provides seemingly endless fun for a toddler and the friendly staff are all lovely.
May 2017

A thriving free house in the heart of the village offering good value home cooked meals, a wine list to suit most tastes and real ales from local South West breweries. Benefits from its own car park in a village where parking is limited.
The Queens Arms Slapton, Kingsbridge TQ7 2PN (T: 01548 580800)
Always a warm welcome at the Queens where food is good quality and value for money. It is not fast food but definitely worth the wait on their busier days. The gardens are beautifully kept too.

Fabulous beer garden with view across the village. Super friendly bar staff
August 2023
Traditional pub with good 'pub grub' st reasonable prices. Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice, multi-tierd beer garden. Only issue being that the garden has no cover, so on a weekday, when its raining and there's no where else to go, its massively over-subscribed and as they dont take bookings you can find yourself - quite literally - left out in the cold, with absolutely nowhere else to eat in Slapton. And the only shop shuts at 1pm...
August 2023
Went a ride to Slapton sands beach and visited this place had a nice snack and drinks.
July 2023
Lovely pub and lovely food , if u like traditional pub food this is the place to go, lovely beer garden aswell

Great, popular dog friendly pub. Food was marvellous. Gets busy and queueing to get in. Go round the back to get your table if able to sit outside. Order at bar, be patient for your food, it’s worth the wait. Ate there three times, in the week we were on holiday. Staff and service was excellent. Highly recommend a visit
September 2021
Lovely gardens homemade food beer excellent friendly atmosphere nothing to fault excellent the walk back to Florence cottage was all of 50 yards!!!
September 2021
We tried a number of different meals which were all superbly cooked. The hospitality from the staff was also great and I would not hesitate to return.
September 2021
We loved our visits here, beautiful gardens to sit in, a wonderful choice of food, well priced and portioned. The vegetarian /vegan options were a welcome sight, as many pubs tend not to have such a wide variety. The staff could not do more, ample hand gel and safety signs to keep people aware that Covid is still out there. We will definitely be visiting again when we return to the area in October.
September 2021
Great pub but shut on Sat, Sun and Mon of our bank holiday weekend. Only open limited hours.
September 2021
Lovely food/menu. Don’t take bookings but staff advised us to arrive at 5:15 ready for 5:30 opening as people start to queue around this time - they were right, it was already busy at 5:15. (Peak season end of august) Not a lot of indoor seating, lots more outside on the pretty terraces
September 2021

Dog friendly pub frienfly do my staff snd nice garden to sit out in. Didn’t have good but it looked good
July 2021
Arrive early! Like every business, The queens Arms is dealing with increased custom; staff shortages and umpteen changes in guidance. They can only do so much and they’re doing their absolute best in the circumstances. A reduction in their menu choice would help them. That said, the menu is varied and the food ample and tasty. The pretty walled garden is a lovely place to enjoy an afternoon or evening. Staff are welcoming but rushed off their feet during busy periods. Be patient and arrive early otherwise expect a long wait on food. Great to have the bar open again.
July 2021

Fantastic local pub who have adapted to new restrictions really well. Their large, tiered garden is beautifully planted and makes for a lovely spot to enjoy a drink or a meal from their extensive menu. Children & dog friendly. Visited many times and never been disappointed.

May 2019
Poor quality food that you wait an unacceptable time for. A simple order of ham,egg & chips took over 30 minutes, when the meal finally came the egg was rock hard, a simple meal ruined.
April 2019
Good hearty meals. A little gem!

A friendly pub in a beautiful location. The menu suits all tastes and is particularly good for children. The terraced garden is well managed and is beautifully laid out and well planted.
April 2018
We go here every time we are in Devon even if we have to drive an hour to get here. We ate here 4 times this year and we are always delighted we the atmosphere, the staff always remember us and they are so dog friendly, one evening there were 9 dogs in. The food is delicious and huge portions, good selection of beers, ales and ciders too. Do not drive past here and make sure you ring an book a table, you do not want to miss out this absolute gem of a pub !! Can't wait till next year

This pub was fantastic. The meals were basic but very tasty and hot. The land lady was very friendly and approachable. overall highly recommended.
September 2017
A lovely pub with with wonderful hosts and a great menu, we visited several times whilst on holiday
August 2017
We booked a table at The Queens Arms, the menu looked good and varied. It is a charming place, set in the attractive village of Slapton. However, the service leaves something to be desired ! We arrived at 6.50pm and the food did not arrive until an a hour later, without apology! The food was good, but the service, badly let this pub down, and we did not eat there again for the remainder of the holiday, and we would have done if the service had been better!. The saving grace was the food and the lovely barman, he was charming, shame about the rest.!
July 2017
Very lovely and friendly staff, however, disappointed with the food. My fish and chips were virtually inedible due to the fish being so overcooked and the frozen chips of a very poor quality. Sadly, we visited on our first night and therefore didn't eat there again. The garden however, was very beautiful so we did return there to sit in the garden and have a couple of drinks with our dogs.
June 2017
returned again and as usual everything from staff to food excellent. Will be back next year Thoroughly recommended

June 2023
Visited on a sunny morning in May so quite busy. We were greeted at the entrance, seated inside then left. No menu provided, I had to ask for it. A couple who arrived well after us had their order taken first. We waited for ages. Then discovered there is a half hour hour gap between breakfast orders ending and lunch orders beginning when only cakes are availble, not even a sandwich. Staff were rushed and inattentive, disappointing experience.

We really enjoyed this as first timers. The teaching session was excellent and gave us basic paddle boarding skills and the confidence to hire out boards again at South Milton Sands during our stay.
August 2022
First time I had tried paddleboarding.Equipment and instructor were first class.Really enjoyed it so much that I tried my skills out later on in my holiday and am a convert,now planning more.
July 2022
Excellent tuition from Kate and very enjoyable
June 2022
Went here as a family of five and had a great time paddle boarding.Well looked after by Crispin and Steve. Great fun as well once you sort your wobbly legs out.
June 2021
My Son & I had a great time taking part in this for the 1st time. Crispin was very caring, patient and a brilliant instructor. It poured of rain but it remained warm despite the early start! This did not dampen our enthusiasm & Crispin did offer to curtail the 1 of the 2 hours and refund us but we were enjoying ourselves far too much! We both ended up in the estuary for a swim anyway! Absolutely brilliant 2 hours & highly recommended.
August 2020
Our two hour early morning session was absolutely brilliant, thank you Crispin, we'll be back!
August 2019
Fantastic early morning session with Crispin - got us two oldies up on our feet paddling around the Kingsbridge estuary - what a fabulous way to start the day. Five star - would like to do it again.
May 2018
Very enjoyable - will definitely do it again. Crispin was very helpful.
September 2017
Thank you Crispin for a fab family lesson introducing us and our 3 girls to paddle boarding

Slapton Sands
(2 miles)
(29)
A long stretch of beach with spectacular views of the sea stretching into the distance, Slapton Sands is in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and for good reason. Adjacent to Slapton Ley, a freshwater lake that’s home to an abundance of wildlife and one of the many reasons people come to visit the area, the beach has a history of welcoming families in the summer for long days in the sunshine, building sandcastles, surfing, windsurfing and kayaking. It’s amazing to believe that this peaceful corner of South Devon has its place in military history as in 1943 the beach was taken over by allied forces to use as a rehearsal area for the D-Day landings. However, live ammunition and poor visibility ended in the deaths of more than 700 servicemen, so today there is a stone monument in place for Operation Tiger, as it was called, as well as a Sherman Tank at nearby Torcross. On a more current note, there is a beachside café at Slapton Sands for teas, coffees and other light bites, and there are also toilets nearby. The beach has disabled access, and also allows dogs throughout the year, so it really is fun for everyone and very easy to get to. There is parking nearby and in the summer months from May to September there is lifeguard cover. Last, but not least, a small collection of pubs reside in Torcross for those who are feeling peckish after a long day in the fresh air, or if you have been for a nice walk along the sand!
Our dog loved this beach and the kiosk cafe was a great addition, especially as it was very cold and windy. Shame about the parking costs.
April 2024
Fab stretch of beach - quite a trek from one end to another, you’ll need a drink from the coffee van at Pilchard Cove or cafes in Torcross! Over the hill from Torcross to bee sands has an amazing view
August 2023
A stunning coastline well worth a visit. If you drive along the coast road from Dartmouth the views are incredible. Slapton Sands is a shingle beach and dog friendly. If the first car park is busy continue further on and the next one is usually quieter, payment required.
July 2023
Visited here out of respect for those who practiced the D-Day landings on this beach. If venturing doen to the sea from the car park please note it was hard getting back up as you sink into the stones, so not so good for those with any mobility issues.
July 2023
Beautiful pebbly beach,water was so clear!
June 2023
Lovely beach with clear blue sea, very small shingle so no good if u have children who want to build a sand castle, also water gets deep very quickly
June 2023
Beautiful quiet unspoilt beach
April 2023
Really interesting history. Great for the children to link back to a Michael Morpurgo story too.
April 2022
loved it
November 2021
Long pebbly beach. Parking right on the front.
September 2021
We visited on a very overcast day with a keen wind blowing, so we did not see the sands at their best. We walked into Slapton and had tea in the church and found a pleasant footpath back to the beach car park, which ran past the nature reserve at Slapton Ley.
September 2021
A beautiful, gentle walk along the side of the nature reserve, if you make it to the turn off to go into Slapton, there is a lovely pub up there, the Queens Arms great gardens, food and friendly staff.
September 2021
Absolutely stunning stretch of beach (non-sandy which we prefer) with miles of space. Beautiful for early morning dog walks with a coffee at the end from the 'cafe on the beach' at Strete Gate picnic area.
May 2021
Walked along the beach and round the Nature reserve whilst staying in Slapton village. Lovely long shingle beach - our dog loved it. Lovely circular walk through the medieval village and back through the Nature reserve and along the beach.
November 2020
Ample parking, nice walk along the beach.
October 2020
Beautiful beach with a stunning sunrise. The sound of the sea on the pebbles is very relaxing. Really clean . No rubbish . Beautiful walks nearby. Nice cafe and restaurants. Dog friendly too.
September 2020
We have had lovely walks along Clapton and the views are stunning
February 2020
If you love the sound of the waves on pebbles this has to be one of the best beaches in the world !
April 2019
A totally unspoilt stretch of beach with wild flowers and wonderfully coloured rocks. We were lucky to be staying on a stones throw away and spent a few happy hours there with our dog watching the locals beach fishing in the evenings - bliss!
August 2018
Lovely walking -
June 2018
Lovely walk for wild flowers, bird watching sea views
May 2018
Clean beach.No plastic.
May 2018
This is certainly a lovely beach and so little rubbish.
April 2018
Really interesting area and good walks along the coast and by the Ley. Generous provision of toilets and parking and a number of places to eat. Would particularly recommend The Start Bay Inn, The Boathouse and Seabreeze Cafe at Torcross. Also very handy that there is a bus should you want to walk one way and get a bus back. Very beautiful and peaceful.
October 2017
Beautiful beach right across from our Cottage
September 2017
Wonderful nature reserve with well signposted walks.
September 2017
Beautiful stretch of shingle beach - dogs allowed all year. Not many facilities - we went to the Strete end of the beach as there is a great little coffee hut there - great coffee and friendly staff.
September 2017
Clapton Sands is beautiful. The rocks are the most beautiful colours, wild flowers abound on the beach, the views in either direction are stunning and it is rarely over crowded.One of the most wonderful areas in the U.K.
May 2017
Great place for a walk along the beach and had some great events for children at Easter. Great fish and chips in the pub at the end on Torcross
April 2017
Beesands
(3 miles)
(45)
Gorgeous coastal walk from South Hallsands to Beesands. Not too strenuous for my mini dacshund. Well worth a visit with rocks / coves at the far end.
December 2023
Lovely relaxing location.
October 2023
Beautiful location with lovely coastal walks in both directions ! 2 very good eating places too !
October 2023
Ideal for walking your dog. Abit difficult to get on beach if you have mobility problems. Sadly not sandy, but dogs loved it
September 2023
Beesands is a lovely place, the beach was Great, definitely worth a visit.
September 2023
Stunning beach, fantastic sunset.
August 2023
Great place for an evening drink - beach not very suitable for children .
August 2023
We stayed for a week in a house opposite the beach in Beesands. The beach is a pebble beach and is very quiet. There is no lifeguard but there are locals there everyday with their boats so I am sure they would let you know if the conditions were unsafe. There is a fish and chip shop/restaurant and 1 pub restaurant - both serving lovely food and offer very friendly service. There is very little nearby so you do need a car to get around. Nearest supermarket was around 20-30 minute car ride away. The kids went in the sea almost every day and had the best time! They wore full wetsuits and water shoes which I thoroughly recommend as it is a pebble beach, and the kids got stung by a jelly fish when they paddled without wetsuits. When the tide was in, or coming in, the kids felt safer as they were in their depth. When the tide is out, there is a ledge which drops quite sharply. I am not a fan of sand so sitting on my camping chair on the pebble beach was bliss for me. We even spotted seals on most days! The locals with their boats didn't seem too friendly but we loved watching them take their boats out and bring them back in again. It was fascinating. I would have loved to ask them more about the beach, tides and coastal erosion but they didn't seem very approachable. However, I do appreciate that they must find tourists a little irritating. I would absolutely go back to Beesands for a holiday. It is my idea of blissful relaxation.
August 2023
Friendly, quiet location and shingle beach. Nice beach walk to Torcross at low tide. Pub/restaurant and Britannia restaurant and takeaway were very good. Very narrow roads to Beesands from turning off main road, but enjoyable holiday
June 2023
Just lovely. Excellent food at Britannia on the beach and they also have an excellent takeaway
May 2023
Great beach.
September 2022
Pebble beach. Sea crystal clear
August 2022
Beautiful location, stunning views!
August 2022
Pleasant place to visit
July 2022
Absolute delight to stay in this quiet little seaside village! Mostly holiday let properties nowadays but still some locals around to talk to about the history of the area. The village is extremely clean including the beach considering it is all dog friendly! Popular with local & travelling anglers mainly at weekends I also fished to some degree every day of our stay. We will be going back soon!
July 2022
Had a lovely walk. Beautiful setting.
June 2022
lovely location, enjoyed many morning walks along the beach, and caught 14 mackerel. The road access is not the best, drive slowly, you cannot do anything else, and hey who's in a rush on holiday
May 2022
Loved Beesands, we stayed in one of the cottages for a week and enjoyed the peace and quiet and strolling along the beach, very dog friendly to!
May 2022
loved it here
November 2021
Gorgeous stretch of beach - we loved finding pebbles to take home! The walks to Torcross and Hallsands and an absolute must for stunning views
October 2021
Lovely clean dog-friendly beach and an easy walk from Clover Cottage and over to Torcross too
September 2021
Lovely quiet and dog friendly beach with good facilities. Good place to walk from to nearby beaches.
July 2021
The actual usable beach is a fair walk from the village ( parking not allowed as the beach fronting the village no longer exists due to flood defences
June 2021
much less busy than most local beaches (because it is shingle) but great for kids above toddler age. lovely walks in both directions, eg to Torcross for chips or to Start Point for views. Easy parking and a good beach shack cafe and take away
June 2021
Nice village on the coast
May 2021
Lovely area and stay
May 2021
Accidentally burnt the garden table offered to pay as we had booked for 2021 for our honeymoon the owners accepted our offer but refused our stay for honeymoon said they were proud owners hey accidents happen we r nature adults n had to do alit of cleaning n change light bulbs in our arrival so thanks to the owners it completely messed up our honeymoon how selfish urn that's part of letting your cottage accidents happen n we did not have to offer to pay be warned don't damage anything
December 2020
14 Beesands is a great property. About 10 feet away from the beach/ sea wall. Pub 20 paces away. Lovely walks on the doorstep. Fabulous sunsets and seals swimming past. Who could ask for more. Well equipped cottage, very comfy beds cosy and warm
October 2020
The most wonderful little fishing village- narrow lanes on approach so drive carefully- but it's worth it. Lovely shingle beach and stunning views across Start Bay. Two great eateries- Britannia and The Cricket Inn are worth a visit. Beesands is just beautiful, I love it there.
September 2020
Amazing location right on the beach. We spent a week in Beesands and found the property to be perfect for our big group - plenty of space for everyone to relax and a very well appointed kitchen. Would highly recommend.
September 2020
Beautiful setting and lovely property decorated to a high standard, well equipped and perfect place for a getaway to peace and quiet. Short distance to the beach. Would definitely return. We had a super weekend at this property celebrating a family birthday
January 2020
Beautiful relaxing place to spend time.
November 2019
Lovely little beach, nice quiet location and free parking a bonus
August 2019
Worth the uphill/downhill walk along the coast path. Lovely spot.
August 2019
Easy to park, good food options. plenty of room for everyone.
August 2019
I love Beesands . The only sad thing is even more people have found out about it, 10 years since my last visit. Sadly the sea has removed the road handy for parking and is gradually eroding the cliff edges. Not as quiet as it used to be but the attractions of two nice eating places have probably increased the footfall.
June 2019
It’s a new look on the outside but the food very much of the same high quality at the Britannia in Beesands. The new ‘shack’ doesn’t really do it justice with a completely renovated contemporary dining room in keeping with the seaside location and beach hut vibe with excellent views of the bay. There seems to be loads more space too and the higher ceiling gives light to the treats being served from the kitchen. Dave and the team in the kitchen maintain their high standards of food preparation and making dishes that look and taste fantastic, the front of house team are equally as attentive making a great relaxed dining experience. I would have no hesitation in recommending breakfast, lunch or dinner at the Britannia so come back if you have been before and see the changes or give it a go if you never have been. ????????
June 2019
I've been coming to Beesands since I was 2 years old (61 now!). Not every year since adulthood but still can't stay away. Its an ideal location for those who want to get away from it all. Its close enough to Kingsbridge and within easy reach of Dartmouth , Salcombe and Brixham. The locals are very friendly and will always be up for a chat. Its almost tempting to keep this little coastal secret to myself!
October 2018
Bit scary driving down to the beach due to the narrow road but worth it when you got there. Had fish and chips and ate them on the tables that were provided while looking out to sea.
September 2018
Had a wonderful meal in the beach cafe .
July 2018
We've been coming to this general area for over 20 years now and have stayed in many of the surrounding villages . This was the first time we'd stayed in Beesands - but we had walked through it on our coastal walks on many, many occasions. We both loved the peaceful charm of the place - secluded , tranquil and away from it all . But unlike Hallsands (next village along) , it does have two places where you can eat ( The cricket Inn and the Britannia0)and they are both very good . The beach is great - shingle - but really uncrowded in June . ( We were lucky with the weather) and on a clear,sunny day - it is quite magical. ( What a shame the water is so freezing cold !!) This stretch of coastline is stunning - and even if you do no other walks - walk over to Hallsands and read about the old village that was washed away in January 1917 - or just drink in the stunning views . I love this part of Devon and it never fails to take my breath away when you stand on the coast path near the lighthouse and look back across Start Bay to Hallsands , Beesands , Torr Cross , and over towards Dartmouth. Wonderful.
June 2018
Beautiful stoney beach with views of Start Point Lighthouse. Tasty fish and chips available, popular pub and public toilets.
June 2018
Lovely place, good food and very dog friendly :-)
March 2018
Britannia Fish - Great fish - always fresh and lovely family run business. A must for anyone who likes eating good fish!
May 2017
Ideal for quiet and peaceful holiday with two good restaurants both of which are dog friendly.

Great little beach, my furry companion had the best time here. She couldn't contain her excitement. Amazing for us both watching and listening to the sounds of the sea.
December 2023
Really nice walk from Beesands.
October 2023
Lovely walk from Beesands. Takes about half an hour.
June 2023
lovely beach, I walked through there twice on my way along the coast path, really peaceful, the lost fishermans village is also worth visiting just a short walk from the beach
May 2022
Great walk up to Hallsands, interesting piece of history.
April 2022
Lovely little place, great to take a picnic as no facilities but that's part of its charm. Wonderful views of Start Bay and a great base to walk to Start Point and beyond or to Beesands. Well worth a visit.
September 2020
Gorgeous beach, but be careful if you have a dog that likes to run as our Border Collie got very sore paws on the pebbles.
May 2017
Lannacombe Beach
(5 miles)
(13)
Rugged and unspoiled, Lannacombe is the beach for those looking for total escapism on their South West holiday. Small and perfect for escaping from the summer crowds, it’s one of the best places to visit to simply enjoy the Devon scenery in all its natural glory. There’s a small car park just behind the beach so do get there early in order to guarantee a space, although there is further parking a short walk away if need be. Dogs are welcome at the beach throughout the year and as it offers access to the Coast Path it’s a good idea to combine your visit with a walk to take in the views of sea and countryside, perhaps towards Start Point where there is further parking around 30-40 minutes away on foot. At low tide the beach offers gentle rock pooling so it’s a lovely spot to head to for a quiet afternoon with the family, building sandcastles and eating sandwiches if you remember to bring them. There aren’t any cafes and restaurants immediately on site, so do remember to take anything you need with you, and there aren’t any toilets in the near vicinity either, so that’s worth keeping in mind when you plan your day. If you have been on holidays in Devon and Cornwall before you will also know that you need to watch our for the tide at many of the beaches, including this one in order to avoid disappointment or getting wet, you can pick up a tide timetable at local post offices!
Lovely walk along the coast from Horizons. Beautiful sandy beach
April 2024
Lannacombe is a lovely beach! The beach is gentle and slopes nicely into the sea. We swam in October and it was beautiful. If you haven’t been there are no facilities and only parking for about 8-9 cars so get there early in peak season. It’s on the SW Coast path and we have walked from East Prawle though takes a while. Fabulous beach. Keep it to yourself!
October 2023
Best beach in the area, spent a lovely sunny day here.
September 2023
A favourite beach of us, we spent another lovely afternoon there, superb view and great for rock pooling.
April 2022
Fantastic beach! Secluded and beautiful. Windy narrow lanes to reach it but worth it. We were able to get a car space in the small car park which was great. Our dog loved it and so did we!
October 2021
Best beach in the world! Dont tell anyone or else we will never get one of the 8 parking spaces!
September 2021
Unspoilt and away from the crowds. Perfect secret
August 2021
Beautiful unspoilt beach.
July 2021
We walked here from East Prawle, it was a delightful find and we explored the beach whilst en route along the coastal path. I imagine it would be extremely busy in high season but we were the only ones there so felt very lucky to have found it.
June 2021
Lovely but inaccessible down rough extremely narrow lane with very tiny parking & limited turning , best to walk from Start Point car park
October 2020
Very limited parking (but we got lucky!). Wide, spacious but covered in dense seaweed - what's happened? It never used to be so weedy.
August 2019
Excellent secluded beach once you find it. Signs would be helpful but this would be detrimental as visitors would "flood" the small car park. Well worth visiting and walking along the stunning cliff walks
September 2018
A lovely beach where we enjoy sitting and eating our sandwiches after walking from Start Point.

Blackpool Sands
(5 miles)
(36)
Between Dartmouth and Slapton, Blackpool Sands is a beautiful shingle bay on the South West Coast Path, surrounded by evergreens and pine trees. It really is a treasure of a beach to visit while you’re in the area. Award-winning, the privately owned, blue flag beach boasts a sense of being in the Mediterranean on a good day in the summer, although a good jumper never goes amiss in this part of the world! You will no doubt not be surprised to hear that it is in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, however it also boasts ample facilities and things to do. There are showers, toilets and disabled facilities, as well as paddle board, kayak and wetsuit hire available for those wishing to earn their visit to The Venus Beach Café, where light bites and refreshments are served. The Venus Shop also sells all the bits and pieces you might want for fun and games on the beach if you have forgotten them or are in need of extra buckets and spades. The water at Blackpool Sands is known for being clean and clear and tested by the Environment Agency, and lifeguards are on hand in the summer (July to September) so there’s every reason to pop in for a dip. However, dogs are not allowed on the beach in the high season (12th March to 30th October) so keep the walking for the cooler months. There is parking available at the beach with seasonal charges, and you can find out more information on those from the Blackpool Sands information line on 01803 771800. This beach is easy to get to and quite literally fun and games for the whole family, as well as a beautiful place to visit at any time of the year to take in the view!
Beautiful beach, clean sparkly water, no litter, great parking, fabulous late lunch in the cafe after a 5 hour drive. We were here for the registration for The Dart SUP challenge.
May 2024

June 2023
Visited Blackpool sands on our honeymoon 27 years ago and have enjoyed it on both occasions. A lovely clean beach with a very nice restaurant/cafe. We walked to the beach and got the local bus back up to Stoke Fleming.
May 2023
we love this beach always clean good parking clean facilities and good cafe.
September 2022
We did go to this beach, couldn’t go in the sea as it was so rough, was beautiful though. No sand, but still very nice.
September 2022
Beautiful beach; very blue water. It’s more a pebbly rather than a sandy beach, love it all the same. It’s clean and there are lifeguards in the summer months which is when we visited. The toilets were clean and not far from the beach; no queues for the toilet either. Parking can be a bit pricey at £9 for the whole day of you come in the morning but didn’t mind it. You pay less though if you come in the afternoon. The is a little sandpit area for a any kids who want to play in sand
September 2022
It is a really beautiful beach although, despite its name, it is not a sandy beach, however our son and grandson were keen on paddle boarding. They made a special visit for this and were told that the paddleboard facilities were closed but to come the following day when the facilities were still closed! Considering that this was during the height of the holiday season, my son was a bit put out having made two wasted trips.
August 2022
A lovely beach, stunning veiw as you drive down towards it. Very clean with clear water.
August 2022
Lovely clean beach although very quiet. There was a small charge for parking.
April 2022

September 2021
Welcoming, clean attractive

August 2021

June 2021

May 2021
Great beach
November 2020
Lovely sandy beach. Parked here (£2) whilst doing a circular walk and then returned for a walk along the beach.
November 2020
Dogs allowed on beach out of season, a bracing walk with coffee and millionaire shortbread at the cafe to finish.
October 2020
Great beach really beautiful , even in the rain, as the Venus café is right on the beach and is warm, dry and serves great food and drinks at reasonable prices.
October 2019
One of our favourite beaches, in a beautiful setting. Plenty of car parking and plenty of room on the beach, even on a busy day. The sea is clean and clear and the facilities are excellent (nice to have changing rooms). Thoroughly recommend this beach.
October 2019
Beautiful stretch of shingle beach nestled between steep hills at either end. Excellent facilities including one of the best beach cafes we've ever visited.
September 2019
We had a wonderful day at Blackpool sands. A shingle beach within a lovely cove, it was clean and felt safe for the children to swim in the water (which was also sparkling). The beach is privately run, so the carpark fee was a bit stiff (£8 for the day), however the upside of this was a beautifully clean beach with lots of amenities, including rental of SUPs and other water equipment, a great cafe, and really clean loos. On a busy day you would need to arrive before lunchtime, or the carpark will shut, but this also means that the beach didn't feel crowded at all.
September 2019
Parking charge between £3 - £8 depending on time of year, Also food good but e.g. Hawaiian Prawns (£9) consisted of 5 prawns. Not good value for money.
October 2018
Lovely beach, not sandy but the stones are okay. Good food, beverages, coast guards, Nice view and not so cowded
August 2018
Lovely clean beach in super location along coastal road. Great place to visit.

August 2017
Beautiful location but shame it a shingle beach and not sandy. Also very disappointed with the £8 fee to park the car .
August 2017
Perfect venue for a sunny day! Secluded beach which is clean and tidy, with a cafe, snack bar and shop, beach equipment hire too
July 2017
The cost of the parking steep

We enjoyed having the paddock to exercise the dogs. We thought is generally peaceful and relaxing. Most of all, we loved the area.
June 2022
Amberley was beautiful, the property and the setting were both stunning and the facilities, equipment and general offering within accommodation was excellent. The only thing I would mention for awareness is that we couldn't find the laundry bags or recycling bags.
October 2021
Very much so. A lovely part of the world and Amberley lived up to our expectations.
May 2021
Location put as good as property pretty remote and comments about walking to beach somewhat optimistic, otherwise an excellent property and clinically clean and well presented, directions very clear and good parking

We booked a table here online for Boxing Day lunch but when we arrived they told us they don’t take bookings. Luckily they had a table and we enjoyed a really good pub meal.

August 2022
Excellent food, really nice atmosphere and surroundings, thank you for finding us a table as I thought I had made a booking, booked wrong pub.
July 2022
Very poor. Overpriced food (don't order the duck breast @£16 unless you're on a super low calorie diet). Beer too cold and expensive. I used to like the charm of the pub before it was renovated, now just lacks atmosphere.
May 2022
Had a drink there. Outside space at the back was lovely. We didn't eat there.
March 2022
Good and friendly pub. Fish and chips excellent.
September 2021
We have been back here many times when we have visited, beautiful gardens, now with covered heated area for those colder and wetter times. The only thing we would say is the lack of vegetarian options on the main menu.
September 2021

Very friendly and welcoming staff. Great garden with outside bar and very attentive restaurant staff, nothing was too much trouble. The quality and presentation of the food was exceptional. We felt happy to eat inside with tables well distanced and cleaned after previous customers, while staff and customers, when moving around the eating areas, were expected to wear masks. So much so we frequented the outside bar and the restaurant numerous times while on holiday in the village. A great place to eat after a tiring day on the beach.

August 2020
Fantastic breakfast. Helpful polite staff. Highly recommend.
July 2020
Lovely farm shop with a wide range of products available and a nice cafe. It was within easy walking distance of Torcross which was great due to the closure of the local shop. The best bit was the adjacent South Hams brewery. With a great selection of locally brewed craft ales and ciders and delicious food available from the cafe next door it was a great way to spend a damp afternoon avoiding Storm Ciara!
February 2020
Lovely food and fabulous Sunday roasts, highly recommend.
October 2019

Worth a visit! Great little farm shop. Lovely fruit and bread. The café served a great cream tea/cakes and an excellent breakfast : )
August 2019
Great choice of produce including local cheese and Award-winning sausages. Recommend the cafe for breakfast, lunch and Sunday lunch and their own Ashridge cider. Friendly staff. You can get a Toad Hall discount here but you have to ask as not all staff are aware.
July 2019
well stocked and friendly staff
July 2019

July 2017
LOvely but expensive
July 2017
We love this place, probably popped in most days for delicious meat, cheese and treats. We don't eat out often as our dog is nervous around dogs that get too close so eating in can feel like a chore. But with lovely grub from a friendly shop, it becomes a treat. Plus it's supporting the local trade which is so important.
June 2017
Always a favourite for breakfast and for stocking up on delicious things for our holidays in Torcross. The tractor provides seemingly endless fun for a toddler and the friendly staff are all lovely.
May 2017
Excellent small cafe/pizza area, Number One, sells a good range of gifts, many garden related. The plants are healthy, well cared for and reasonable priced and the farm shop produce fresh and good selection. Pleasant helpful staff
May 2017
One of our favourite must go to places. Great food, good setting (with places to play for the kids) and good little shop too).
December 2016
The Queens Arms
(2 miles)
(95)
A thriving free house in the heart of the village offering good value home cooked meals, a wine list to suit most tastes and real ales from local South West breweries. Benefits from its own car park in a village where parking is limited.
The Queens Arms Slapton, Kingsbridge TQ7 2PN (T: 01548 580800)
Always a warm welcome at the Queens where food is good quality and value for money. It is not fast food but definitely worth the wait on their busier days. The gardens are beautifully kept too. Just the place to stop off after a walk around the Ley or for a very pleasant evening. Highly recommended.
April 2024
This is our 'local' when here, Kevin and Sandra are great hosts, brilliant food cooked by Kevin all the staff and locals are very welcoming
April 2024
Brilliant pub! We visited twice and can thoroughly recommend. Lovely staff, roaring fire and dog friendly.

Great food and really friendly and welcoming staff - super value for money too!
August 2023
Fabulous beer garden with view across the village. Super friendly bar staff
August 2023
Traditional pub with good 'pub grub' st reasonable prices. Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice, multi-tierd beer garden. Only issue being that the garden has no cover, so on a weekday, when its raining and there's no where else to go, its massively over-subscribed and as they dont take bookings you can find yourself - quite literally - left out in the cold, with absolutely nowhere else to eat in Slapton. And the only shop shuts at 1pm...
August 2023
Went a ride to Slapton sands beach and visited this place had a nice snack and drinks.
July 2023
Lovely pub and lovely food , if u like traditional pub food this is the place to go, lovely beer garden aswell
June 2023
Booked a table and when we arrived it had been taken. Not acceptable.
June 2023
Really nice village pub. We ate here twice during our week in Slapton. Food was very good and due to beautiful weather, we were able to eat outside on the terrace which was an added bonus!
May 2023
Always go to the Queens when on holiday in Slapton. Sandra, Kevin and Adam are great hosts and nothing is too much trouble. Great food, excellent quality and perfectly cooked, spoilt for choice. Very dog friendly, our Apollo loves going in ! Its a proper local and we will be down again later this year.
April 2023
We spent 4 evenings here and ate on 3 of them. Really good, tasty and plentiful pub grub. Excellent value for money. The ambiance of the pub is brilliant with friendly and welcoming staff and locals.

They are closed on a Monday but big portions of food and delicious
November 2021
Great, popular dog friendly pub. Food was marvellous. Gets busy and queueing to get in. Go round the back to get your table if able to sit outside. Order at bar, be patient for your food, it’s worth the wait. Ate there three times, in the week we were on holiday. Staff and service was excellent. Highly recommend a visit
September 2021
Lovely gardens homemade food beer excellent friendly atmosphere nothing to fault excellent the walk back to Florence cottage was all of 50 yards!!!
September 2021
We tried a number of different meals which were all superbly cooked. The hospitality from the staff was also great and I would not hesitate to return.
September 2021
We loved our visits here, beautiful gardens to sit in, a wonderful choice of food, well priced and portioned. The vegetarian /vegan options were a welcome sight, as many pubs tend not to have such a wide variety. The staff could not do more, ample hand gel and safety signs to keep people aware that Covid is still out there. We will definitely be visiting again when we return to the area in October.
September 2021
Great pub but shut on Sat, Sun and Mon of our bank holiday weekend. Only open limited hours.
September 2021
Lovely food/menu. Don’t take bookings but staff advised us to arrive at 5:15 ready for 5:30 opening as people start to queue around this time - they were right, it was already busy at 5:15. (Peak season end of august) Not a lot of indoor seating, lots more outside on the pretty terraces
September 2021
Lovely and quirky! Excellent!
September 2021

Lovely pub, very friendly service. Good food.
August 2021
Dog friendly pub frienfly do my staff snd nice garden to sit out in. Didn’t have good but it looked good
July 2021
Arrive early! Like every business, The queens Arms is dealing with increased custom; staff shortages and umpteen changes in guidance. They can only do so much and they’re doing their absolute best in the circumstances. A reduction in their menu choice would help them. That said, the menu is varied and the food ample and tasty. The pretty walled garden is a lovely place to enjoy an afternoon or evening. Staff are welcoming but rushed off their feet during busy periods. Be patient and arrive early otherwise expect a long wait on food. Great to have the bar open again.
July 2021
Decent pub grub in the heart of Slapton. Service slow, but it was very busy.
July 2021

April 2021
Great pub with great atmosphere and fab food. My only concern is that the tables are set too close to each other and not to COVID standards

May 2019
Poor quality food that you wait an unacceptable time for. A simple order of ham,egg & chips took over 30 minutes, when the meal finally came the egg was rock hard, a simple meal ruined.
April 2019
Good hearty meals. A little gem!
October 2018

A friendly pub in a beautiful location. The menu suits all tastes and is particularly good for children. The terraced garden is well managed and is beautifully laid out and well planted.
April 2018
We go here every time we are in Devon even if we have to drive an hour to get here. We ate here 4 times this year and we are always delighted we the atmosphere, the staff always remember us and they are so dog friendly, one evening there were 9 dogs in. The food is delicious and huge portions, good selection of beers, ales and ciders too. Do not drive past here and make sure you ring an book a table, you do not want to miss out this absolute gem of a pub !! Can't wait till next year

This pub was fantastic. The meals were basic but very tasty and hot. The land lady was very friendly and approachable. overall highly recommended.
September 2017
A lovely pub with with wonderful hosts and a great menu, we visited several times whilst on holiday
August 2017
We booked a table at The Queens Arms, the menu looked good and varied. It is a charming place, set in the attractive village of Slapton. However, the service leaves something to be desired ! We arrived at 6.50pm and the food did not arrive until an a hour later, without apology! The food was good, but the service, badly let this pub down, and we did not eat there again for the remainder of the holiday, and we would have done if the service had been better!. The saving grace was the food and the lovely barman, he was charming, shame about the rest.!
July 2017
Very lovely and friendly staff, however, disappointed with the food. My fish and chips were virtually inedible due to the fish being so overcooked and the frozen chips of a very poor quality. Sadly, we visited on our first night and therefore didn't eat there again. The garden however, was very beautiful so we did return there to sit in the garden and have a couple of drinks with our dogs.
June 2017
returned again and as usual everything from staff to food excellent. Will be back next year Thoroughly recommended

June 2023
Visited on a sunny morning in May so quite busy. We were greeted at the entrance, seated inside then left. No menu provided, I had to ask for it. A couple who arrived well after us had their order taken first. We waited for ages. Then discovered there is a half hour hour gap between breakfast orders ending and lunch orders beginning when only cakes are availble, not even a sandwich. Staff were rushed and inattentive, disappointing experience.

First time I had tried paddleboarding.Equipment and instructor were first class.Really enjoyed it so much that I tried my skills out later on in my holiday and am a convert,now planning more.

Excellent tuition from Kate and very enjoyable
June 2022
Went here as a family of five and had a great time paddle boarding.Well looked after by Crispin and Steve. Great fun as well once you sort your wobbly legs out.
June 2021
My Son & I had a great time taking part in this for the 1st time. Crispin was very caring, patient and a brilliant instructor. It poured of rain but it remained warm despite the early start! This did not dampen our enthusiasm & Crispin did offer to curtail the 1 of the 2 hours and refund us but we were enjoying ourselves far too much! We both ended up in the estuary for a swim anyway! Absolutely brilliant 2 hours & highly recommended.
August 2020
Our two hour early morning session was absolutely brilliant, thank you Crispin, we'll be back!
August 2019
Fantastic early morning session with Crispin - got us two oldies up on our feet paddling around the Kingsbridge estuary - what a fabulous way to start the day. Five star - would like to do it again.
May 2018
Very enjoyable - will definitely do it again. Crispin was very helpful.
September 2017
Thank you Crispin for a fab family lesson introducing us and our 3 girls to paddle boarding
May 2017
Slapton Sands
(2 miles)
(29)
A long stretch of beach with spectacular views of the sea stretching into the distance, Slapton Sands is in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and for good reason. Adjacent to Slapton Ley, a freshwater lake that’s home to an abundance of wildlife and one of the many reasons people come to visit the area, the beach has a history of welcoming families in the summer for long days in the sunshine, building sandcastles, surfing, windsurfing and kayaking. It’s amazing to believe that this peaceful corner of South Devon has its place in military history as in 1943 the beach was taken over by allied forces to use as a rehearsal area for the D-Day landings. However, live ammunition and poor visibility ended in the deaths of more than 700 servicemen, so today there is a stone monument in place for Operation Tiger, as it was called, as well as a Sherman Tank at nearby Torcross. On a more current note, there is a beachside café at Slapton Sands for teas, coffees and other light bites, and there are also toilets nearby. The beach has disabled access, and also allows dogs throughout the year, so it really is fun for everyone and very easy to get to. There is parking nearby and in the summer months from May to September there is lifeguard cover. Last, but not least, a small collection of pubs reside in Torcross for those who are feeling peckish after a long day in the fresh air, or if you have been for a nice walk along the sand!
Our dog loved this beach and the kiosk cafe was a great addition, especially as it was very cold and windy. Shame about the parking costs.
April 2024
Fab stretch of beach - quite a trek from one end to another, you’ll need a drink from the coffee van at Pilchard Cove or cafes in Torcross! Over the hill from Torcross to bee sands has an amazing view
August 2023
A stunning coastline well worth a visit. If you drive along the coast road from Dartmouth the views are incredible. Slapton Sands is a shingle beach and dog friendly. If the first car park is busy continue further on and the next one is usually quieter, payment required.
July 2023
Visited here out of respect for those who practiced the D-Day landings on this beach. If venturing doen to the sea from the car park please note it was hard getting back up as you sink into the stones, so not so good for those with any mobility issues.
July 2023
Beautiful pebbly beach,water was so clear!
June 2023
Lovely beach with clear blue sea, very small shingle so no good if u have children who want to build a sand castle, also water gets deep very quickly
June 2023
Beautiful quiet unspoilt beach
April 2023
Really interesting history. Great for the children to link back to a Michael Morpurgo story too.
April 2022
loved it
November 2021
Long pebbly beach. Parking right on the front.
September 2021
We visited on a very overcast day with a keen wind blowing, so we did not see the sands at their best. We walked into Slapton and had tea in the church and found a pleasant footpath back to the beach car park, which ran past the nature reserve at Slapton Ley.
September 2021
A beautiful, gentle walk along the side of the nature reserve, if you make it to the turn off to go into Slapton, there is a lovely pub up there, the Queens Arms great gardens, food and friendly staff.
September 2021
Absolutely stunning stretch of beach (non-sandy which we prefer) with miles of space. Beautiful for early morning dog walks with a coffee at the end from the 'cafe on the beach' at Strete Gate picnic area.
May 2021
Walked along the beach and round the Nature reserve whilst staying in Slapton village. Lovely long shingle beach - our dog loved it. Lovely circular walk through the medieval village and back through the Nature reserve and along the beach.
November 2020
Ample parking, nice walk along the beach.
October 2020
Beautiful beach with a stunning sunrise. The sound of the sea on the pebbles is very relaxing. Really clean . No rubbish . Beautiful walks nearby. Nice cafe and restaurants. Dog friendly too.
September 2020
We have had lovely walks along Clapton and the views are stunning
February 2020
If you love the sound of the waves on pebbles this has to be one of the best beaches in the world !
April 2019
A totally unspoilt stretch of beach with wild flowers and wonderfully coloured rocks. We were lucky to be staying on a stones throw away and spent a few happy hours there with our dog watching the locals beach fishing in the evenings - bliss!
August 2018
Lovely walking -
June 2018
Lovely walk for wild flowers, bird watching sea views
May 2018
Clean beach.No plastic.
May 2018
This is certainly a lovely beach and so little rubbish.
April 2018
Really interesting area and good walks along the coast and by the Ley. Generous provision of toilets and parking and a number of places to eat. Would particularly recommend The Start Bay Inn, The Boathouse and Seabreeze Cafe at Torcross. Also very handy that there is a bus should you want to walk one way and get a bus back. Very beautiful and peaceful.
October 2017
Beautiful beach right across from our Cottage
September 2017
Wonderful nature reserve with well signposted walks.
September 2017
Beautiful stretch of shingle beach - dogs allowed all year. Not many facilities - we went to the Strete end of the beach as there is a great little coffee hut there - great coffee and friendly staff.
September 2017
Clapton Sands is beautiful. The rocks are the most beautiful colours, wild flowers abound on the beach, the views in either direction are stunning and it is rarely over crowded.One of the most wonderful areas in the U.K.
May 2017
Great place for a walk along the beach and had some great events for children at Easter. Great fish and chips in the pub at the end on Torcross
April 2017
Beesands
(3 miles)
(45)
Gorgeous coastal walk from South Hallsands to Beesands. Not too strenuous for my mini dacshund. Well worth a visit with rocks / coves at the far end.
December 2023
Lovely relaxing location.
October 2023
Beautiful location with lovely coastal walks in both directions ! 2 very good eating places too !
October 2023
Ideal for walking your dog. Abit difficult to get on beach if you have mobility problems. Sadly not sandy, but dogs loved it

Stunning beach, fantastic sunset.

Great place for an evening drink - beach not very suitable for children .
August 2023
We stayed for a week in a house opposite the beach in Beesands. The beach is a pebble beach and is very quiet. There is no lifeguard but there are locals there everyday with their boats so I am sure they would let you know if the conditions were unsafe. There is a fish and chip shop/restaurant and 1 pub restaurant - both serving lovely food and offer very friendly service. There is very little nearby so you do need a car to get around. Nearest supermarket was around 20-30 minute car ride away. The kids went in the sea almost every day and had the best time! They wore full wetsuits and water shoes which I thoroughly recommend as it is a pebble beach, and the kids got stung by a jelly fish when they paddled without wetsuits. When the tide was in, or coming in, the kids felt safer as they were in their depth. When the tide is out, there is a ledge which drops quite sharply. I am not a fan of sand so sitting on my camping chair on the pebble beach was bliss for me. We even spotted seals on most days! The locals with their boats didn't seem too friendly but we loved watching them take their boats out and bring them back in again. It was fascinating. I would have loved to ask them more about the beach, tides and coastal erosion but they didn't seem very approachable. However, I do appreciate that they must find tourists a little irritating. I would absolutely go back to Beesands for a holiday. It is my idea of blissful relaxation.

Friendly, quiet location and shingle beach. Nice beach walk to Torcross at low tide. Pub/restaurant and Britannia restaurant and takeaway were very good. Very narrow roads to Beesands from turning off main road, but enjoyable holiday
June 2023
Just lovely. Excellent food at Britannia on the beach and they also have an excellent takeaway
May 2023
Great beach.

Pleasant place to visit
July 2022
Absolute delight to stay in this quiet little seaside village! Mostly holiday let properties nowadays but still some locals around to talk to about the history of the area. The village is extremely clean including the beach considering it is all dog friendly! Popular with local & travelling anglers mainly at weekends I also fished to some degree every day of our stay. We will be going back soon!
July 2022
Had a lovely walk. Beautiful setting.
June 2022
lovely location, enjoyed many morning walks along the beach, and caught 14 mackerel. The road access is not the best, drive slowly, you cannot do anything else, and hey who's in a rush on holiday
May 2022
Loved Beesands, we stayed in one of the cottages for a week and enjoyed the peace and quiet and strolling along the beach, very dog friendly to!
May 2022
loved it here
November 2021
Gorgeous stretch of beach - we loved finding pebbles to take home! The walks to Torcross and Hallsands and an absolute must for stunning views
October 2021
Lovely clean dog-friendly beach and an easy walk from Clover Cottage and over to Torcross too
September 2021
Lovely quiet and dog friendly beach with good facilities. Good place to walk from to nearby beaches.
July 2021
The actual usable beach is a fair walk from the village ( parking not allowed as the beach fronting the village no longer exists due to flood defences
June 2021
much less busy than most local beaches (because it is shingle) but great for kids above toddler age. lovely walks in both directions, eg to Torcross for chips or to Start Point for views. Easy parking and a good beach shack cafe and take away
June 2021
Nice village on the coast
May 2021
Lovely area and stay

December 2020
14 Beesands is a great property. About 10 feet away from the beach/ sea wall. Pub 20 paces away. Lovely walks on the doorstep. Fabulous sunsets and seals swimming past. Who could ask for more. Well equipped cottage, very comfy beds cosy and warm
October 2020
The most wonderful little fishing village- narrow lanes on approach so drive carefully- but it's worth it. Lovely shingle beach and stunning views across Start Bay. Two great eateries- Britannia and The Cricket Inn are worth a visit. Beesands is just beautiful, I love it there.
September 2020
Amazing location right on the beach. We spent a week in Beesands and found the property to be perfect for our big group - plenty of space for everyone to relax and a very well appointed kitchen. Would highly recommend.
September 2020
Beautiful setting and lovely property decorated to a high standard, well equipped and perfect place for a getaway to peace and quiet. Short distance to the beach. Would definitely return. We had a super weekend at this property celebrating a family birthday
January 2020
Beautiful relaxing place to spend time.
November 2019
Lovely little beach, nice quiet location and free parking a bonus
August 2019
Worth the uphill/downhill walk along the coast path. Lovely spot.
August 2019
Easy to park, good food options. plenty of room for everyone.
August 2019
I love Beesands . The only sad thing is even more people have found out about it, 10 years since my last visit. Sadly the sea has removed the road handy for parking and is gradually eroding the cliff edges. Not as quiet as it used to be but the attractions of two nice eating places have probably increased the footfall.
June 2019
It’s a new look on the outside but the food very much of the same high quality at the Britannia in Beesands. The new ‘shack’ doesn’t really do it justice with a completely renovated contemporary dining room in keeping with the seaside location and beach hut vibe with excellent views of the bay. There seems to be loads more space too and the higher ceiling gives light to the treats being served from the kitchen. Dave and the team in the kitchen maintain their high standards of food preparation and making dishes that look and taste fantastic, the front of house team are equally as attentive making a great relaxed dining experience. I would have no hesitation in recommending breakfast, lunch or dinner at the Britannia so come back if you have been before and see the changes or give it a go if you never have been. ????????
June 2019
I've been coming to Beesands since I was 2 years old (61 now!). Not every year since adulthood but still can't stay away. Its an ideal location for those who want to get away from it all. Its close enough to Kingsbridge and within easy reach of Dartmouth , Salcombe and Brixham. The locals are very friendly and will always be up for a chat. Its almost tempting to keep this little coastal secret to myself!
October 2018
Bit scary driving down to the beach due to the narrow road but worth it when you got there. Had fish and chips and ate them on the tables that were provided while looking out to sea.
September 2018
Had a wonderful meal in the beach cafe .
July 2018
We've been coming to this general area for over 20 years now and have stayed in many of the surrounding villages . This was the first time we'd stayed in Beesands - but we had walked through it on our coastal walks on many, many occasions. We both loved the peaceful charm of the place - secluded , tranquil and away from it all . But unlike Hallsands (next village along) , it does have two places where you can eat ( The cricket Inn and the Britannia0)and they are both very good . The beach is great - shingle - but really uncrowded in June . ( We were lucky with the weather) and on a clear,sunny day - it is quite magical. ( What a shame the water is so freezing cold !!) This stretch of coastline is stunning - and even if you do no other walks - walk over to Hallsands and read about the old village that was washed away in January 1917 - or just drink in the stunning views . I love this part of Devon and it never fails to take my breath away when you stand on the coast path near the lighthouse and look back across Start Bay to Hallsands , Beesands , Torr Cross , and over towards Dartmouth. Wonderful.
June 2018
Beautiful stoney beach with views of Start Point Lighthouse. Tasty fish and chips available, popular pub and public toilets.
June 2018
Lovely place, good food and very dog friendly :-)
March 2018
Britannia Fish - Great fish - always fresh and lovely family run business. A must for anyone who likes eating good fish!
May 2017
Ideal for quiet and peaceful holiday with two good restaurants both of which are dog friendly.

Great little beach, my furry companion had the best time here. She couldn't contain her excitement. Amazing for us both watching and listening to the sounds of the sea.
December 2023
Really nice walk from Beesands.
October 2023
Lovely walk from Beesands. Takes about half an hour.
June 2023
lovely beach, I walked through there twice on my way along the coast path, really peaceful, the lost fishermans village is also worth visiting just a short walk from the beach
May 2022
Great walk up to Hallsands, interesting piece of history.
April 2022
Lovely little place, great to take a picnic as no facilities but that's part of its charm. Wonderful views of Start Bay and a great base to walk to Start Point and beyond or to Beesands. Well worth a visit.
September 2020
Gorgeous beach, but be careful if you have a dog that likes to run as our Border Collie got very sore paws on the pebbles.

Lannacombe Beach
(5 miles)
(13)
Rugged and unspoiled, Lannacombe is the beach for those looking for total escapism on their South West holiday. Small and perfect for escaping from the summer crowds, it’s one of the best places to visit to simply enjoy the Devon scenery in all its natural glory. There’s a small car park just behind the beach so do get there early in order to guarantee a space, although there is further parking a short walk away if need be. Dogs are welcome at the beach throughout the year and as it offers access to the Coast Path it’s a good idea to combine your visit with a walk to take in the views of sea and countryside, perhaps towards Start Point where there is further parking around 30-40 minutes away on foot. At low tide the beach offers gentle rock pooling so it’s a lovely spot to head to for a quiet afternoon with the family, building sandcastles and eating sandwiches if you remember to bring them. There aren’t any cafes and restaurants immediately on site, so do remember to take anything you need with you, and there aren’t any toilets in the near vicinity either, so that’s worth keeping in mind when you plan your day. If you have been on holidays in Devon and Cornwall before you will also know that you need to watch our for the tide at many of the beaches, including this one in order to avoid disappointment or getting wet, you can pick up a tide timetable at local post offices!
Lovely walk along the coast from Horizons. Beautiful sandy beach
April 2024
Lannacombe is a lovely beach! The beach is gentle and slopes nicely into the sea. We swam in October and it was beautiful. If you haven’t been there are no facilities and only parking for about 8-9 cars so get there early in peak season. It’s on the SW Coast path and we have walked from East Prawle though takes a while. Fabulous beach. Keep it to yourself!
October 2023
Best beach in the area, spent a lovely sunny day here.
September 2023
A favourite beach of us, we spent another lovely afternoon there, superb view and great for rock pooling.
April 2022
Fantastic beach! Secluded and beautiful. Windy narrow lanes to reach it but worth it. We were able to get a car space in the small car park which was great. Our dog loved it and so did we!
October 2021
Best beach in the world! Dont tell anyone or else we will never get one of the 8 parking spaces!
September 2021
Unspoilt and away from the crowds. Perfect secret
August 2021
Beautiful unspoilt beach.
July 2021
We walked here from East Prawle, it was a delightful find and we explored the beach whilst en route along the coastal path. I imagine it would be extremely busy in high season but we were the only ones there so felt very lucky to have found it.
June 2021
Lovely but inaccessible down rough extremely narrow lane with very tiny parking & limited turning , best to walk from Start Point car park
October 2020
Very limited parking (but we got lucky!). Wide, spacious but covered in dense seaweed - what's happened? It never used to be so weedy.
August 2019
Excellent secluded beach once you find it. Signs would be helpful but this would be detrimental as visitors would "flood" the small car park. Well worth visiting and walking along the stunning cliff walks
September 2018
A lovely beach where we enjoy sitting and eating our sandwiches after walking from Start Point.

Blackpool Sands
(5 miles)
(36)
Between Dartmouth and Slapton, Blackpool Sands is a beautiful shingle bay on the South West Coast Path, surrounded by evergreens and pine trees. It really is a treasure of a beach to visit while you’re in the area. Award-winning, the privately owned, blue flag beach boasts a sense of being in the Mediterranean on a good day in the summer, although a good jumper never goes amiss in this part of the world! You will no doubt not be surprised to hear that it is in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, however it also boasts ample facilities and things to do. There are showers, toilets and disabled facilities, as well as paddle board, kayak and wetsuit hire available for those wishing to earn their visit to The Venus Beach Café, where light bites and refreshments are served. The Venus Shop also sells all the bits and pieces you might want for fun and games on the beach if you have forgotten them or are in need of extra buckets and spades. The water at Blackpool Sands is known for being clean and clear and tested by the Environment Agency, and lifeguards are on hand in the summer (July to September) so there’s every reason to pop in for a dip. However, dogs are not allowed on the beach in the high season (12th March to 30th October) so keep the walking for the cooler months. There is parking available at the beach with seasonal charges, and you can find out more information on those from the Blackpool Sands information line on 01803 771800. This beach is easy to get to and quite literally fun and games for the whole family, as well as a beautiful place to visit at any time of the year to take in the view!
Beautiful beach, clean sparkly water, no litter, great parking, fabulous late lunch in the cafe after a 5 hour drive. We were here for the registration for The Dart SUP challenge.
May 2024

Visited Blackpool sands on our honeymoon 27 years ago and have enjoyed it on both occasions. A lovely clean beach with a very nice restaurant/cafe. We walked to the beach and got the local bus back up to Stoke Fleming.
May 2023
we love this beach always clean good parking clean facilities and good cafe.
September 2022
We did go to this beach, couldn’t go in the sea as it was so rough, was beautiful though. No sand, but still very nice.
September 2022
Beautiful beach; very blue water. It’s more a pebbly rather than a sandy beach, love it all the same. It’s clean and there are lifeguards in the summer months which is when we visited. The toilets were clean and not far from the beach; no queues for the toilet either. Parking can be a bit pricey at £9 for the whole day of you come in the morning but didn’t mind it. You pay less though if you come in the afternoon. The is a little sandpit area for a any kids who want to play in sand
September 2022
It is a really beautiful beach although, despite its name, it is not a sandy beach, however our son and grandson were keen on paddle boarding. They made a special visit for this and were told that the paddleboard facilities were closed but to come the following day when the facilities were still closed! Considering that this was during the height of the holiday season, my son was a bit put out having made two wasted trips.
August 2022
A lovely beach, stunning veiw as you drive down towards it. Very clean with clear water.
August 2022
Lovely clean beach although very quiet. There was a small charge for parking.
April 2022
great place
November 2021
very clean beach and gorgeous setting. good that it didn't allow dogs.
September 2021
Welcoming, clean attractive
September 2021
No sand! Very clean and scenic, but very disappointing if you want to run around on sand
August 2021
Lovely pretty beach with good facilities.
June 2021
Very large shingle beach, charges for parking at a set fee no matter how long your visit. Can pay by card for parking as well as cash.
May 2021
Great beach
November 2020
Lovely sandy beach. Parked here (£2) whilst doing a circular walk and then returned for a walk along the beach.
November 2020
Dogs allowed on beach out of season, a bracing walk with coffee and millionaire shortbread at the cafe to finish.
October 2020
Great beach really beautiful , even in the rain, as the Venus café is right on the beach and is warm, dry and serves great food and drinks at reasonable prices.
October 2019
One of our favourite beaches, in a beautiful setting. Plenty of car parking and plenty of room on the beach, even on a busy day. The sea is clean and clear and the facilities are excellent (nice to have changing rooms). Thoroughly recommend this beach.
October 2019
Beautiful stretch of shingle beach nestled between steep hills at either end. Excellent facilities including one of the best beach cafes we've ever visited.
September 2019
We had a wonderful day at Blackpool sands. A shingle beach within a lovely cove, it was clean and felt safe for the children to swim in the water (which was also sparkling). The beach is privately run, so the carpark fee was a bit stiff (£8 for the day), however the upside of this was a beautifully clean beach with lots of amenities, including rental of SUPs and other water equipment, a great cafe, and really clean loos. On a busy day you would need to arrive before lunchtime, or the carpark will shut, but this also means that the beach didn't feel crowded at all.
September 2019
Parking charge between £3 - £8 depending on time of year, Also food good but e.g. Hawaiian Prawns (£9) consisted of 5 prawns. Not good value for money.
October 2018
Lovely beach, not sandy but the stones are okay. Good food, beverages, coast guards, Nice view and not so cowded
August 2018
Lovely clean beach in super location along coastal road. Great place to visit.
May 2018

August 2017
Beautiful location but shame it a shingle beach and not sandy. Also very disappointed with the £8 fee to park the car .
August 2017
Perfect venue for a sunny day! Secluded beach which is clean and tidy, with a cafe, snack bar and shop, beach equipment hire too
July 2017
The cost of the parking steep
