Hope Cove, South Devon

Prawn Cottage

Prawn Cottage is a newly renovated, luxury holiday home just 50 metres from Hope Cove beach.

This beautifully designed 2-bedroom terraced cottage combines bright, contemporary interiors with one of the most sought-after locations in the South Hams. With stunning sea views, incredible coastal surroundings, and the beach on your doorstep, Prawn Cottage is a seaside gem — perfect for your next South Devon escape.

Space & Layout

Inside, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms — one with full-size single bunk beds, making it ideal for couples or small families. The cottage is thoughtfully equipped for young families too, with a high chair, travel cot, and stair gates at the top and bottom of the staircase.

Your Own Outdoor Space

At the rear, a private furnished terrace offers the perfect spot to unwind after a day on the beach. There’s outdoor seating and a BBQ for al fresco dinners and relaxed evenings with family and friends.

Steps from the Beach

Hope Cove beach is just a one-minute walk away — close enough to hear the waves. Whether it’s rock pooling with the kids, a morning swim, or an evening stroll along the sand, the sea is always within reach.

Pet Friendly

One well-behaved dog is welcome, so the whole family can enjoy the holiday together.

Prawn Cottage sits in an enviable position — just 50 metres from Hope Cove beach. Step outside and you’re moments from the sand, the sea, and the gentle rhythm of coastal life.

With the village shop and post office within walking distance, everything you need is close by. It’s a place that feels like a real escape — and one you can enjoy year-round.

Where to Eat

Hope Cove has a wonderful selection of places to eat. The Hope and Anchor is a beautifully renovated pub serving local produce with a warm, family-friendly atmosphere. The Cove Cafe Bar — winner of Food & Drink Devon’s Best Bar 2019/20 — offers fabulous seafood, wood-fired pizzas, live music, and a sun-soaked balcony for late summer evenings. And for something truly unique, The Lobster Pod lets you dine in a glass pod overlooking the harbour and beach — booking is highly recommended.

Explore the Coast

Prawn Cottage is perfectly positioned on the South West Coast Path. Walk towards Bolberry or head to Bantham — both routes reward you with incredible views and the chance to discover the best of South Devon’s dramatic coastline.

“ Wow an absolute gem! Could not have been more thrilled with the location of Prawn Cottage – 30 seconds from the beach. It was sparkling clean and we absolutely loved the décor, you can tell a lot of love and care has gone into this cottage. We would definitely return and highly recommend. ”

Simon

“ We really enjoyed our stay, the cottage furnishings look almost new, linen is good quality and the beds are really comfy. So nice to not need the car for days, a great find! ”

Tabetha

“ 5 stars for the lovely Prawn Cottage. The location couldn’t be more ideal for nipping to the beach or to get an icecream. The bedrooms are great with lovely linen and we loved the open plan living and dining space. They even provided the bucket & spades and chairs for the beach! Brilliant. ”

Ali

“ Great cottage, very clean and in a great location. Stunning coastal walks with amazing views, a pub that serves great food within 50 metres, a beach within 100 metres and a second beach within 300 metres. There’s also a takeaway that serves fresh pizza next to the pub and other classic hot foods. A great place to stay! ”

“ We had a superb week with our two small children at Prawn Cottage and it was so well set up for us (high chair, travel cot, stair gates, baby bowls and cutlery) so useful. The cottage is beautifully finished with views of the sea form the window. It was so handy being able to skip back to the cottage for nap times from the beach too! Would certainly recommend. ”

Lily

“ Fab location, warm and cosy cottage, everything you could need and more. ”
