South Huish is a small, rural hamlet in the South Hams, tucked between Hope Cove, Thurlestone and the beaches at South Milton Sands. Choosing a large holiday cottage in South Huish gives groups a peaceful countryside base with big skies and far-reaching coastal views, while still being within reach of family-friendly stretches of sand. If you would rather avoid piling into cars, it is also possible to walk down to the coast from the hamlet. It is a bit of a hike, but a rewarding one, especially on a clear day.
For larger groups, days can be shaped around simple outings close to home. Some might head to South Milton Sands for a few hours on the beach and a relaxed meal at the Beach House café, while others follow the circular lanes and footpaths that thread through fields and down towards the coast. Later, everyone can return to a spacious kitchen and living area to cook together, or light the barbecue in the garden as the sun drops behind the fields. With its combination of privacy, access to several beaches and straightforward routes to Salcombe and Kingsbridge, South Huish works well for those who want a tucked-away setting without feeling remote.
