Taylor Swift’s Perfect Getaway: 5 Dreamy Salcombe Retreats
With Taylor Swift set to return to the UK in August for her record-breaking Eras Tour, we at Finest Stays have compiled a list of 5 properties in South Devon that we believe Taylor would find enchanting if she chose to “Stay, Stay, Stay” here one day!
1. 1 The Strand
Taylor would feel anything but stranded (no matter how romantic!) while standing in the heart of Salcombe at 1 The Strand. Surrounded by Salcombe’s bustling charm and picturesque scenery, this property epitomises the romance of immersing yourself in the beauty and vibrant life of the town. It’s a perfect spot for anyone looking to feel connected yet beautifully secluded.
2. Blue Haze
Just as “Lavender Haze” speaks to being blissfully lost in a moment of love, Blue Haze offers a retreat where you can feel enveloped in tranquility and beauty. This Salcombe haven is perfect for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle, offering peace, relaxation, and stunning vistas.
3. The Tower
Something from a fairytale! This Grade II listed house is a well known Salcombe landmark featuring a crenellated stone tower dating from 1795. “Let the only flashing lights be the tower at midnight,” as Taylor sings in ‘Paris’. The Tower’s historical charm and unique architecture provide the perfect setting for a group getaway to the sea. Its elevated position offers breathtaking views over Salcombe, making it a magical retreat that combines history, beauty, and simply beautiful views—ideal for any group of Swifties looking to create unforgettable memories.
4. The Penthouse
“Don’t put me in the basement, when I want the penthouse of your heart” Well, perhaps not the penthouse of your heart but the penthouse of Hope Cove is open for folk year round to explore this beautiful stretch of Devon coastline. Hope Cove is a beautiful little fishing village just ten minutes from Salcombe. Bejewel your holiday with evenings watching the sun melt into the sea or even spot a seal from the beautiful seafront balcony. Fresh locally caught Lobsters available off the beach, beautiful coastal path walks from the front door and a charming little fishing village to explore. Heaven!
5. Swift Cottage
We couldn’t leave out Swift Cottage! Sharing its name with Taylor, this sweet seaside cottage in the quiet postcard-perfect village of South Milton (a ten minute drive from Salcombe) is ideal for unwinding between her busy schedule. It’s a cozy retreat for some much-needed quiet time.
