Ginn Cottage is one of those Salcombe stays that feels characterful straight away.
It is a beautifully renovated fisherman’s cottage moments from Batson Creek and Island Street, with Salcombe town centre just a short stroll away. It suits couples or friends who want somewhere cosy, walkable and full of coastal charm.
If you like the idea of arriving, putting the car away, and exploring Salcombe on foot, Ginn Cottage is a lovely base.
Inside The Cottage
The cottage is set over three floors.
On the ground floor, there is a welcoming sitting room, dining space and well-equipped kitchen with a classic Belfast sink. Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms on separate floors, which gives a nice sense of privacy for two couples or friends travelling together.
The style is coastal, warm and thoughtful without feeling overdone.
Outdoor Space
Ginn Cottage has a small courtyard and a private garden just across the access path.
That outdoor space is useful in Salcombe, especially if you want somewhere for a morning coffee, an evening drink or a quiet moment away from the town.
It makes the cottage feel more settled, rather than just somewhere to sleep.
Location
The location is a big part of the appeal.
You are close to Batson Creek, Island Street and Salcombe town centre. That means shops, galleries, cafes, pubs, restaurants and local walks are all easy to reach.
Parking is nearby at Shadycombe/Creek car parks, so guests should plan parking in advance, especially in peak season.
Who It Suits
Ginn Cottage suits:
– couples
– friends
– guests who want a walkable Salcombe base
– people who like character cottages
– guests who want town, creek and restaurants nearby
– shorter out-of-season breaks
It is probably not the right fit if you want lots of bedrooms or everything on one level, because the cottage is arranged over three floors.
What To Do Nearby
From Ginn Cottage, you can make the most of Salcombe without over-planning.
Wander to Island Street, walk into town for coffee, browse the shops, head towards the ferry, or choose somewhere for supper without needing to drive.
Staying At Ginn Cottage
