Hidden away in the rolling Devon countryside, The Wild Hare is a tranquil retreat for two. Light-filled and open-plan with a beautifully crafted kitchen and comfy sofas, all perfect for that relaxing break. Outside, sun-dappled terraces invite leisurely mornings, while the communal gardens offer a peaceful place to wander. As dusk falls, sink into the bubbling hot tub and let the stillness of the countryside work its magic. Although delightfully secluded, this charming bolthole is just a 7-minute drive from Torcross Beach and 15 minutes from Kingsbridge, offering the best of both worlds: total peace and quiet, yet perfectly placed to explore the stunning South Devon coast.

The Wild Hare Overview

The Wild Hare is a dreamy countryside retreat made for two, offering a peaceful sanctuary just a short hop from the South Devon coast. Set within picturesque grounds, this charming bolthole invites you to slow down, soak up the beauty of the countryside, and embrace laid-back luxury.

The open-plan living space is warm and inviting, with exposed wooden beams and a cosy seating area - just the spot to curl up with that holiday read. The beautifully designed kitchen is fully equipped for sampling all the local ingredients from the lovely farm shops nearby. That homemade hearty breakfast before a day of exploring this beautiful coastline never tasted so good.

After a busy day of adventures, the sumptuous king size bed promises the deepest of slumbers. The en-suite shower room, with its sleek fittings and luxurious toiletries, adds to the indulgent feel of this countryside hideaway.

The added treat to this escape is a private sun-drenched terrace – the perfect setting for morning coffees, al fresco lunches, sizzling barbecues or a sunset tipple. Wander through the glorious communal gardens, bursting with wildflowers, fragrant herbs, and peaceful corners to sit and soak up the scenery. After a day of exploring, slip into your own bubbling hot tub and let the warmth ease you into a state of utter relaxation.

Set in the peaceful village of Chillington, The Wild Hare is ideally located for discovering Devon’s stunning coastline and countryside. Torcross Beach is just a 7-minute drive away, with Slapton Sands just 10 minutes, Strete Gate Beach only 12 minutes, and the vibrant market town of Kingsbridge just 15 minutes from the door. Slightly further afield, the sailing haven of Salcombe offers a delightful day out with its waterside cafés, boutique shops and fantastic seafood.

The South West Coast Path is within easy reach, offering dramatic cliff-top trails and sweeping sea views. Whether you’re after sun-soaked beach days, wild swims, or lazy pub lunches with a view, you’ll find it all within a short drive.

Whether you’re craving adventure or pure relaxation, The Wild Hare is a little slice of heaven where you can do as much or as little as you please.

From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the lush gardens, bursting with wildflowers and birdsong, making it impossible not to slow down and soak up the peace of this Devon retreat. Inside, The Wild Hare is a dream – effortlessly stylish yet wonderfully cosy. The interiors offer the perfect balance of rustic charm and modern comfort, with warm wooden beams, soft lighting, and carefully chosen details that make it feel instantly like home. The kitchen area was a particular highlight – beautifully designed and fully equipped, perfect for our lazy breakfasts and relaxed homemade suppers with local produce from the farm shop nearby.
