Holiday cottages & self-catering accommodation in Welcombe, Devon

Welcombe, in Devon, is a welcome little retreat on the shores of the Atlantic that is far from crowded cities and busy road networks. This peaceful place has many nearby beaches and some great holiday cottages and traditional pubs where you can enjoy a home-cooked meal after a day wandering along the South West Coast Path. On the Devon and Cornwall border, holidaying in Welcombe gives you a great base to explore all that both counties have to offer, and our holiday cottages in Welcombe provide the perfect place to relax when you’re tired out from a day of adventuring.

The beach at Welcombe Mouth is a real gem – at the bottom of a steep track with a gentle stream trickling through rolling fields, before the cliffs plunge away to reveal a shingly beach with rugged rock formations. Because the beach is tricky to get to, it’s rarely busy, making it a great spot to avoid the summer crowds. There is also a charming thatched inn in the village, which is the place to head to for a refreshing pint after a day on the beach. Welcombe is also close to other North Devon places of interest, including Hartland, Clovelly and Westward Ho!, plus Bude and Tintagel in Cornwall.
