Pet-friendly summary

Apartment 13 at Willow Cove is a beautiful sea-view apartment in Hope Cove, one of the prettiest coastal villages in the South Hams, and it makes a genuinely lovely base for a trip with a dog. The location, overlooking the sea, is the star of the show, and it is the kind of spot where the dog gets to enjoy the view as much as you do.

The guest who stayed with their dog described exactly that: their dog loved sitting on the balcony watching people and other dogs walk by, which tells you both that the apartment is relaxed about dogs and that Hope Cove is a place where dogs are very much part of village life. They also praised the comfortable, well-finished apartment, the free parking, the electric car charger and a thoughtful welcome bag of coffee, fudge and cookies.

Hope Cove itself is a real draw for dog owners, with a beach, coast-path walks and a couple of dog-friendly restaurants, The Cove among them. One practical note the guest passed on: the lanes in and out of Hope Cove are narrow, so take it steady if you are driving to nearby shops or villages.

As a self-catering apartment, it is worth confirming the pet arrangements with the host when you book. For dog owners who want sea views, an easy welcome and a beautiful South Devon village on the doorstep, Willow Cove is a lovely choice and earns a 4.7/5 paw rating.
