“The Soar Mill Cove is reached by a single track road and the single story building sits above the cove with spectacular hill top and sea views. We parked at the rear where we noted there are two Tesla charge points - not sure if they work on all vehicle types or of there is a cost. We were welcomed to our room, staying in one of their "dog friendly" rear facing rooms without view. The wet dog smell hit us immediately. We are dog ownersand though we were made welcome, the feeling of being segregated grew as time went on. The lounge (and views) is off limits, the dining area is partitioned off with railings to keep us separate and is positioned to the rear of the dining room - don't expect a window views with the other diners. With the overwhelming smell, our room (10) was grubby, the carpet heavily stained, the curtains were mouldy and it was generally very tired - not 4 star. It's only redeeming features were that it was spacious and had large opening doors to the small shared garden at the rear. Finally, note that the paper thin walls do not offer much peace and quiet - conversations and footsteps are clearly heard from within. The service went some way to making up any stars awarded. We enjoyed meeting the hardworking team in the well stocked bar at then end of the shift which added a personal touch. The food is best described as pub grub and the Devon breakfast was decent. In summary, we were disappointed by Soar Cove Mill and relieved to be only staying for one night.”

“We had a great stay at Soar Mill Cove Hotel. The hotel is in a lovely location and you can take a walk down to the cove from the door. Staff were friendly and helpful. The room had dog bowls and a treat. We were allowed to dine with our dog but ‘dog zone’ in restaurant a little cramped.”

Would you like to add any more feedback about your stay? I was shocked to see how much Pets Pyjamas added on to the hotel cost! I will always book direct with the hotel in future

“Very remote. Very pet friendly.”

“I celebrated my 80th birthday at the hotel. The hotel was one of the friendliest places I've stayed in. Just as important as the staff who were great, the other guests were as well. Perhaps I just struck lucky.”

“The hotel was in a perfect position with great views. Rooms are a good size. Staff were very friendly. Food was good. Barman was very informative and introduced to a local sparkling wine which competes with champagne. Our two dogs had a great time - biscuit on arrival. Coastal path easy access as is the beach. We will definitely go back.”

Would you like to add any more feedback about your stay? Hotel is dated, bathroom needed updating little space to put personal toiletries, no privacy in bedroom unless you drew the curtains - it was ok we were the only ones staying in that part.

“Fantastic staff and surroundings so welcoming and helpful.”

“I had a lovely short break at Soar Mill, with my two young children and our dog. The view from our bedroom across the bay was absolutely breathtaking! We had a lovely room and ate delicious food, we also used the pool which was very warm! If you like walking this is a great spot. A real getaway from the hustle and bustle of life!”
