Guest Blog Post - The Good Hotel Guide

South Devon is one of the most idyllic parts of the UK for a family holiday.  With its beautiful beaches, abundant wildlife and warm welcomes, it is the stuff that outdoor adventures and family fun is made of.  Providing beautiful places to stay to match the character and charm of the location, the Good Hotel Guide has shared four of their family friendly hotels in South Devon…

The Cricket Inn, Beesands

Close to the little town of Kingsbridge and a favorite location amongst both residents and holiday makers in South Devon, Beesands is a wonderful mile-long shingle beach surrounded by fields and a freshwater lake.  The epitome of the seaside holiday, it is also home to The Cricket Inn, a popular 19th-century inn serving upmarket pub grub and stylish accommodation.  Its easy going atmosphere makes it a welcoming environment for all guests and while it does not offer the family amenities such as interconnecting rooms, it’s a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere with the kind of local charm that glories in smiling faces and stories of a day at the beach.

Ilsington Country House, Dartmoor

An elegant country house hotel surrounded by the beauty of Dartmoor, Ilsington Country House is a family run hotel that has rooms welcoming dogs, beautiful suites for couples and interconnecting rooms that are ideal for families looking for a country escape. With spectacular views of the moorland and space outside to run around in, it’s a beautiful place for children to roam, while they also provide a children’s menu a PlayStation and garden games.

Thurlestone Hotel, Kingsbridge

A five minute walk from the beach, Thurlestone Hotel has been welcoming families for over 120 years.  With a sense of old school glamour and a spectacular terrace from which to enjoy the view over afternoon tea, the hotel has a spa, swimming pool, tennis and all the entertainment needed for an active holiday in South Devon, as well as the charm of its enviable location.  There’s even a children’s club during the school holidays.

The Cary Arms, Babbacombe

In an enchanting bay in South Devon, The Cary Arms is a chic hotel that  clings to wooded cliffs overlooking the beach.  With an array of accommodation available, beautiful grounds and thoughtful details such as board games and a well stocked library, the hotel welcomes families.  Meanwhile, the surrounding area is a haven for family activities whether it’s building sandcastles, horse riding or going on the steam train.
