This beach takes a little effort, unless you combine it with a visit to the delightful Soar Mill Cove Hotel which is just a five-minute walk from the beach.
Otherwise it’s a refreshing half-hour cliff top walk from Hope Cove. Soar Mill is quite secluded and away from the crowds. It’s a beautiful sandy beach with great rock pools. The hotel café is dog friendly too and sells a huge variety of coffees and sandwiches.
Or you can sit on the terrace with your pooch and eat from the hotel menu, including cream teas. For more information see www.soarmillcove.co.uk
