- The wider guest experience is strong - Agoda guests rate this 9.3/10 overall
Worth knowing

How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 1 pet-mention guest review sourced from Agoda - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.
- Not a personal visit. We don't stay at every hotel we cover - we summarise patterns from real guest reviews, paraphrased and never quoted verbatim. Full standard on our editorial policy page.
- Wider context: The property has 5 Agoda guest reviews overall, averaging 9.3/10 - the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: June 2026. Policies and pricing drift; we re-check on a rolling basis. Confirm specifics with the property at the moment you book.
- How the paw rating works: Full detail on the methodology page, including the three verification gates and known limitations.
Pet-friendly summary
2 The Elms is a 3.5-star self-catering apartment on Devon Road in Salcombe - a small dog-welcome let in one of the better South Hams village bases for travelling with a dog. The single confirmed pet-traveller review is positive ('very comfortable and welcoming'), and the property's central village positioning makes everyday dog errands - cafes, shops, the harbour - achievable on foot.
Agoda hasn't published a per-night pet fee, weight cap, or breed restrictions for this property, so confirm those directly with the owners when booking. The recent couple who travelled with a dog highlighted three practical strengths: parking on site (a main factor for many dog owners in tight village settings), cleanliness, and an apartment that's well-equipped for either a short break or a longer stay.
The Devon Road location is a useful blend - close enough to the village core for walking to shops, cafes and the harbour, but on a quieter side road rather than the main through-traffic routes. Salcombe itself offers multiple dog-friendly cafes and pubs, easy access to the South West Coast Path for proper structured coastal walks, and several local beaches that accept dogs at various points across the year.
Worth knowing: the confirmed pet-traveller review pool here is small (one recent guest at the time of writing). The 9.3/10 Agoda aggregate across 5 total reviews is strong but the sample is still thin overall - the property is relatively new to the Agoda listing rather than a long-established one. The qualitative signal points in one consistent direction (comfortable, well-located, dog-welcome) but your experience may vary as more guests stay.
Best suited to a couple travelling with one dog who want a comfortable central-Salcombe apartment base with parking, who'll confirm pet specifics with the owners at booking, and who don't mind that the property is still building up its Agoda review history.
