This seaside chic coastal restaurant tells us is 'the faculty of making fortunate discoveries by accident'. But its no accident that there are spectacular sea views from this bright and modern dining room with its painted tongue and groove, dark wood tables and comfortable marine blue and taupe chairs. Its a space casual enough for a relaxed lunch but smart enough for a special occasion dinner.
What cuisine is on offer at Soar Mill Cove Hotel?
Local and seasonal are the watch words here so specials depend on what's been landed at nearby Brixham and Salcombe harbour and seafood is a speciality of the house. You might start with a salad of Salcombe scallops with spicy chorizo and a tomato dressing followed by a fillet of turbot that's been gently steamed over an aromatic lemon and ginger infusion and served with saffron potatoes and a citrus sauce. Meat lovers won't be disappointed by a grilled fillet of West Country beef.
Shortly after Exeter the M5 changes name to the A38 which is a near motorway standard 'A' road, you will notice little difference but the name. About 15 miles along the A38 towards Plymouth you will come to the junction for TOTNES, KINGSBRIDGE & SALCOMBE at which you must turn off left along the A384. When you reach TOTNES on the A384 at the beginning of the town at traffic lights, turn right onto the A381, which is signposted KINGSBRIDGE. BEFORE YOU REACH KINGSBRIDGE (If you see a sign before Kingsbridge, IGNORE IT. There is a small roundabout, do not turn right, but go straight on whatever the sign says). At KINGSBRIDGE go into the town and on reaching the roundabout turn right towards SALCOMBE, still on the A381. Four miles along the road after Kingsbridge you will reach MALBOROUGH village. Here you should leave the A381 and turn sharp right which is signposted SOAR, pass through the village and after the church bear left which is also signposted SOAR. It is then just 2 miles to the hotel passing three more signs.
