Hope Cove is close to the southernmost point of the country bordered by National Trust land and on the South Devon Coastal Footpath and enjoys a superb microclimate of its own.The Cove's sandy beaches are both sheltered and safe for children, full of interest with rock pools and soft sand. It provides an ideal holiday retreat for families, ramblers and nature lovers, with its charming thatched cottages, beautiful cliff top walks, clean sandy beaches, relaxed atmosphere, a far cry from any sign of an amusement arcade!

Diving, water skiing and fishing are all practised in the clear waters of the cove. It is easy to sail your own boat from Hope Cove; with an open beach and a slipway at Inner Hope.
