Bigbury, a small resort with excellent, large, beaches in a secluded position, very busy in summer, hence the large carpark area.
The best bit is that it has an island, Burgh Island, which you can walk to at low tide or get there on a large wheeled tractor thing. Adventure Island here we come !
The island has a private hotel, excellent for a romantic weekend, all in Art Deco style, built in 1929 by the millionaire Archibald Nettlefold. As visited by Agatha Christie, who used the setting in two of her books.
Don't forget to visit Thurlestone and Hope Cove on your way to Salcombe.
