South Hams is a relaxed corner of the West Country where coast and countryside sit close together, giving you plenty of choice without packing the days too tight. For travellers searching for luxury holiday cottages in South Hams, the appeal is in comfort that feels natural: thoughtful interiors, quality furnishings and the sort of well-kept space that helps everyone slow down from the moment they arrive. It suits everything from romantic weekends to family breaks, with a calm base to return to after time outdoors.
Self-catering keeps the holiday on your terms, whether that means late breakfasts, simple suppers cooked with good local produce, or a quiet evening in with room to spread out. Look for holiday cottages with practical touches like parking, good storage for walking gear and inviting living areas, so the day flows easily from out-and-about to fully at ease. A little more privacy and space makes it easier to switch off and enjoy the slower rhythm. We only list properties our local teams know and trust, combining West Country know-how with the standards you would expect from a leading holiday cottage agency.
