Gara Rock Hotel
Perched on a seaside clifftop, Gara Rock is among the most luxurious hotels in East Portlemouth near Salcombe. Surrounded by picturesque countryside and the glimmering South Devon coast, you’ll have everything you need for a luxury hotel break. This is the priciest option nearby, but it is also dog friendly.
