Family Holiday Cottages in Bigbury

Choosing a family holiday cottage in Bigbury gives you a quieter, more rural base within easy reach of Bigbury-on-Sea, Bantham and other local spots, so you can combine countryside calm with classic South Devon beach days. Bigbury is a small South Hams village set back from the coast, with lanes winding down towards beaches and the Avon estuary. You will need a car to get to the coast and nearby attractions, but this also means you can return to somewhere peaceful after time on the sand, with room to spread out and reset.

From here you can plan simple drives down to the coast for swimming, rockpooling and sandcastles, then head back inland for a change of scene, a walk through the fields or an early night after a busy day. There are a few pubs within a short drive, including the family friendly Pickwick Inn in St Ann's Chapel, where visitors can also find a well stocked grocery shop. Stocking up in nearby towns and farm shops suits easy, self-catering meals, and the extra space in your holiday home makes drying towels and stashing beach gear feel straightforward. Having your own place in Bigbury means you can keep beach kit ready by the door and still have quiet corners for reading, games and winding down in the evenings.
