Local Wildlife......


Summer has finally arrived in the South West and with it comes all kinds of local wildlife; such as Badgers, several different species of Bat, Herring Gulls, Basking Sharks, Otters and Dartmoor Ponies.  Hope Cove has its own selection of wildlife; such as Grey Seals, Dolphins and Porpoise, various rock pool marine life and due to the villages’ rural location, a large population of wild Rabbits.  And, as one guest recently pointed out, in the warm summer evenings (usually between June to August), you can also see Glow Worms in Hope Cove!
