About this cottage rental

The Setting
Tucked away in a tranquil corner of a private estate, Scoble Cottage is a unique sanctuary on the Salcombe Estuary. It offers the rare balance of total seclusion while remaining within easy walking distance of South Pool and the award-winning Millbrook Inn.

Your Stay
To ensure a seamless experience, the estate team is on hand throughout your visit to assist with local information or any requirements you may have.

The space
The Interior
The cottage has been curated to an exceptional standard by the owners’ family—renowned interior designers—blending high-end comfort with authentic character. At its heart is a snug lounge and dining area, featuring a log burner and views across the valley toward the water, perfect for slow, fireside evenings. The well-appointed kitchen, complete with a traditional Rayburn, ensures a warm and inviting atmosphere that feels like a true country home.

Rest & Detail
The focus on quality extends to the two upstairs bedrooms, both featuring premium Hypnos beds to ensure a perfect night’s sleep. A spacious shared bathroom serves both rooms, with all linens and towels sourced from luxury brands.

The Grounds
Outside, the cottage opens onto a generous garden and dedicated BBQ area. The highlight is the new cedar wood hot tub, positioned at the garden’s edge. It provides a spectacular vantage point to watch the evening light hit the estuary and the surrounding fields—an incredible spot to unwind on a summer’s night or under a clear winter sky.

PLEASE NOTE Hot Tub is currently unfortunately unavailable due to local water and fire restrictions.

The Estuary Life
From your doorstep, you can explore a network of beautiful coastal and country walks. A short stroll leads you to the Millbrook Inn, famous for its summer barbecues and year-round local atmosphere. For those drawn to the water, the public pontoon at South Pool is easily accessible by foot or car, offering a place to moor a boat and explore the estuary directly. For beach days, the sands of East Portlemouth and the ferry to Salcombe are just a short drive around the water.

**Note hot tub will only be available from mid August.

Other things to note
Dining: Just a mile away in the village center, you'll find The Millbrook Inn, an award-winning gastropub known for its locally sourced, French-influenced cuisine.

Coastal Exploration: The sandy coves of East Portlemouth are a scenic three-mile route along the estuary. From there, you can catch a passenger ferry to the vibrant town of Salcombe.

Nature & Walks: Enjoy easy access to the South West Coast Path for breathtaking clifftop walks toward Prawle Point, Devon's southernmost headland.


Nearby Towns: The bustling market town of Kingsbridge, with its supermarkets, boutiques, and cinema, is just a 15-minute drive away.
