About this property

Crab Cottage is a white terraced cottage on a sunny Salcombe street, three bedrooms sleeping six behind a bay-windowed entrance decorated with nautical touches throughout.

Flowering plants sit either side of the door, steps leading up to the bay-windowed entrance along the sunny street.

A wood burner beneath the beams

The living room keeps a wood-burning stove beside a bay window seat and a blue sofa against a built-in bookshelf. The kitchen is lit by a roof skylight, its door opening onto the garden, with a dining table set beneath bunting and a wall sign for guests.

Three bedrooms with a nautical theme

Three bedrooms sleep up to six, two carrying a large ship's wheel mounted above the bed, the third simpler beneath a sloped ceiling. Bathrooms run to a panelled room with a bath and heated towel rail, plus a boat-print cloakroom.

A patio beneath a parasol

A paved patio holds a dining table shaded by a parasol against the trellis fence, a quiet spot away from the street.

Sailing dinghies and boat sheds

Sailing dinghies race on the estuary, boats moor beside the harbour boat sheds, and wildflowers line the riverbank with boats reflected in still water.

A cottage in the heart of Salcombe

Crab Cottage sits within reach of both Small's Cove Beach and East Portlemouth Beach, in the centre of Salcombe.

A nautical theme, boats put away

Crab Cottage suits a family or group of friends after a proper cottage with a nautical theme running through it — three bedrooms and a genuine wood burner in Salcombe, the patio the natural place to sit once the boats are put away.

Worth knowing before you book

Nothing recurring came up as a drawback in this sample.

Themes are counted mechanically from the written reviews in our sample, then described in our own words. A theme missing from either column simply did not recur often enough to report — it is not a verdict either way.
