“Romance, adventure and seaside fun are all embodied at the delightful Cary Arms, 150 years old but brilliantly updated by Peter and Lana de Savary in 2009. You’ll find stylish bedrooms plus three self-catering cottages; a stone walled, slate floored bar; terraces cascading to the water, excellent gastropub food with outdoor barbecue and pizza oven, a Captain’s Table on a promontory, even a transparent pod for all-weather outdoor dining and a clipper for outings afloat. Superb location. Great stuff.”

“The Inn on the Beach - the place exudes charm, fun and values of a good English pub with all the style and comfort of a boutique hotel. The very best of seaside gastro-pub food and real ales complemented by accommodation, dog friendly facilities and activities to ri val the finest hotels in the country. All set within Babbacombe Bay in Devon.
Hearty breakfasts, long lunches and lazy suppers. Sheltering in its own unsung part of the South Devon coast, the Cary Arms Hotel is a friendly place for all seasons. Blustery and wild, romantic and surprising, sunny and warm - all the elements that hark back to real English seaside fun. With an outdoor fireplace and pizza oven, a warming aroma welcomes guests. Enjoy sundowners and sausages on the terraces to kick start a relaxing weekend in Devon full of luxuries and simple pleasures.
The young are welcomed with their very own Cary Arms fishing net and bait, for days to be spent hitting the rock pools and surrounding waters. Our dog friendly hotel rooms come equipped with a dog bed and bowl. Come stay and see for yourself. If you're coming by boat, we can offer you an overnight mooring. Let us know and we'll send out our clinker shuttle to collect you and bring you ashore!
Created by the de Savary's and recently awarded 5 AA and 5 Visit Britain stars, this is a perfect luxury Devon hotel to enjoy chic beach-side living with all the pleasures and freedom of the South Devon coast.”
