Tuesday Night is Music Night at the Cottage

The evenings are drawing out, summer is threatening to arrive, and we are introducing a new weekly event at the Hotel.

What could be better than to take dinner in the dining room, or sip a cocktail on the terrace and watch the sun set over the bay while live music plays in the background. Every Tuesday in summer, between 6.45pm and 9.00pm, the Sterry family will be playing a wide repertoire of beautiful music. Enjoy the varying sounds of keyboard, harp, flute or saxophone.

Book now for our next Painting and Mosaic Course

Our ever-popular Painting and Mosaic courses continue with our next opportunity on the 18th to 20th May. Once again, personal tuition from Penny Wilton and Priscilla Wheater. Do more than just look at the views: take one home with you and learn a new skill at the same time.

Special Spring Breaks for April

The sun has been glorious, the trees are in blossom and children are exploring the beaches once again. Why not take the opportunity for a refreshing break in beautiful South Devon?

We are offering 3-night April Spring Special Breaks for just £195 per person. This includes an ensuite room with a sea view, dinner, bed and breakfast.

Wake up to the sound of the waves lapping on the shore; relax and watch the sun dip down to the horizon; then return home refreshed.

New arrival

I'm sure many guests of the hotel will be delighted to learn that young Max Ireland was born at 5.06 this morning, obviously waiting around for his mother's birthday. Everybody doing well.

February 2012

The bravest of boats are venturing out into Bigbury Bay, and the daffodils decorate the approaches to the Hotel. That can only mean one thing: the Hotel is open again after the January shutdown. As well as the normal deep-cleaning and maintenance, we have been able to refurbish seven of our rooms - numbers 210 to 216 (see picture below). And Hope Cove retains its peculiar micro-climate with no snow and hardly any frost during the winter.

The best news we have is that we are retaining our 2011 prices this year - we know that times are hard so this is our little gesture to help.

Our website is expanding as well. We hope that the site will become a hub for your holiday, with pages on the towns and villages in the area, and information on the many houses, castles, museums and attractions that you can visit. Then there will be pages for the energetic visitor - walking, golfing, sailing, etc.

We have added a page where you can pre-order products such as champagne, sandwiches, flowers, etc., to be ready you on your arrival - imagine sitting down to a bottle of wine and a scrumptious crab sandwich waiting in your room after a long drive (go to Pre-order Page)

The pages will be added on a continual basis so keep checking the drop-down menus at the top of the pages. See what you might find.
