Nestled in the heart of a charming Devon village at the top of the Salcombe estuary, for decades the Millbrook Inn has been a well-loved gem for travellers and locals alike, exuding character and ambience. These stunning new cottages, just mere feet away from the pub offer the perfect excuse to pause, stay and savour everything this beautiful destination has to offer. Like the Millbrook Inn, they are both dog-friendly, ensuring no family members are left behind during your stay.
Land accommodates up to four guests in its two beautifully appointed bedrooms. There are two meticulously designed bathrooms, one with a freestanding bath and shower, an impeccably equipped high-spec kitchen and an artfully curated interior with original art. There's also access to a private, sun-soaked garden, and convenient private parking.
Sea is the second jewel in the Millbrook Inn's crown, continuing the theme of excellence. Designed for five guests, this cottage offers two Superking bedrooms (one convertible into a twin) with en-suite shower rooms, spacious open-plan living areas with French windows and garden access, a comfortable sofa bed in the living room, a high-spec kitchen with modern appliances, direct access to a serene private garden, and private parking for added convenience.
Land and Sea are both equipped for a self-catering break and the two cottages can interconnect to accommodate groups of up to nine people, but guests are encouraged to dine at the Millbrook Inn just across the road for an exceptional experience.
This is a beautiful old pub that is part of the fabric of the local community. It has recently been refurbished to the highest standard, but it still retains a quintessentially English feel. With its low ceilings, cosy fire and warm welcome adding to the inviting atmosphere, it's a place where people love to gather, whether it's for a pint, to enjoy live music and a roast on Sunday's, or to feast on incredible food.
The menus are outstanding with head chef Iain Dawson and his team putting seasonal ingredients at the forefront. Organic meats are sourced from Fowlescombe Farm, part of the Millbrook Inn's family which has adopted regenerative farming techniques. Here rare, heritage breed beef, lamb and pork are reared and butchered to the highest standard. Locally landed fresh fish and seafood and organic vegetables, grown on the farm, ensure menus are always in tune with the seasons. Charcuterie is from Rare & Pasture, also based at Fowlescombe Farm.
Iain is an advocate of nose to tail eating and skilled at butchery. He is also renowned for his distinctive use of fire and smoke in his cooking infusing food with incredible flavours. Eclectic and satisfying, the menus have something to suit every taste.
As a free house the Millbrook Inn showcases the best that Devon has to offer. On tap there are a range of cask ales and beers from local breweries. A changing wine list features renowned favourites and interesting bottles from small, organic and biodynamic producers.
During late spring and summer, the Millbrook Inn is famed for cooking up a feast on the outside grill which is also fired up to coincide with high tide eating. This is when boats can be moored on the creek's pontoon, with safe passage an hour and half either side of the high tide. Imagine making your way up the creek, where the sound of bird song, and the gentle lap of waves accompanies you on an idyllic journey from nearby Salcombe.
Land and Sea offer a truly special place to stay just a stone's throw from the beloved South West Coast Path, complemented by the incredible food and service offered at the Millbrook Inn where the timelessness of a traditional pub pervades. This is a place to take a deep breath, relax and enjoy.
