Gara Rock in South Hams - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The roads are a nightmare to get there but it's worth it. We had a three bed apartment and brought the dog with us. We had a day walking to salcombe on the coastal path and took the ferry over to the town. Lost a star because of restaurant menu policy - Only downside is they won't let you mix the menus in the restaurant, if you want the tasting menu but the kids don't you'd have to sit in different places (apparently because they come from different kitchens - but they are next to each other so I just think you go all that way and it's something they could do but have a weird policy. Missed out on extra revenue because we ended up only having the bar menu instead of the tasting and wine)

Stunningly located hotel, with a very relaxed atmosphere. Perched on the cliff edge, with coastal walks into Salcombe. Small, intimate and exclusive. We stayed in the Secret Suite as a special treat which was just mind blowingly gorgeous. Just bear in mind when driving, you may have to do some reversing down the single width lanes, when meeting other vehicles.

Had lunch here, great options available. Beautiful place to be on a sunny day. Staff were all very welcoming and friendly. Had the Gara Club and a side of fries. Fantastic food, great tasting. The facilities were spotless.

I’m one of the local taxi drivers and once had the pleasure of been invited for coffee with my clients as I was collecting them from this outstanding hotel The coffee was excellent and the staff were very attentive , well presented and polite. I have had many many clients from here and they always say what a fabulous experience it is staying or eating there The views are simply mind blowing I often try to arrive a little early just so I can sit and take in the tranquility of it all Very well done to the Gara owners manager and all the staff working there It’s establishments such as these that bring millions of visitors to south Devon each year and in doing so generating business for many many people such as myself I love my little business and it always brings me great pleasure to drop and collect from here 🙏🌞🚕🚕🚕🚕🚕

What a view ! Go just for the views alone , chefs do a bang up job too

As a boy in the '60s &' 70s, I came here with my family every Easter for a fortnight, on occasion in summer hols. We stayed in a self-catering converted coastguard cottage, one of six. The place was owned and managed by the same Richards family, father & son, for at least forty years. I stayed in one of the coastguard cottages at Gara Rock with my then wife over Christmas in 1984. Returned on Saturday 14 April 2024. Lovely weather after weeks of rain. Courteous staff. I spent afternoon picking up flotsam, jetsam & litter from Gara Rock Beach, SW Coastal Path, stream at top of last section of beach path, both car parks. The litter at the mainroad entrance to the long, narrow grassed car park was terrible. I picked up what I could, shoved it into bags. The wooden hut at entrance has been vandalised, door ripped off. The carpark potholes were very bad. They need filling urgently. A sad look and first impression for what was once such beautiful place, with no litter, no potholes and no feckless grockles.

Amazing location and quality food

Perfect location to spend my birthday evening. Staff were lovely and friendly. Facilities were as you'd expect, great pool, Jacuzzi, steam room and sauna. Amazing views from the rooms, pool and restaurant. Food was amazing.

Nice place, for a walk around the beach. Hidden gem 💎

This place couldn’t get any better, all the staff are wonderful, amazing rooms, excellent food. Such a relaxing stay with the best walking on the doorstep.
