The Best Hotels With a Pool in Devon, UK
When you’re not enjoying a swim on the South West coast, there are plenty of hotels with pools to choose from in Devon. From one that overlooks Combesgate Beach to a delightfully designed art deco pool in the heart of Dartmoor National Park. These are Devon’s best hotels with pools, bookable with Culture Trip.
1. Watersmeet Hotel
Boutique Hotel
With a pool that overlooks Combesgate Beach (and almost Croyde Bay), and with Lundy Island straight ahead, you’d be forgiven for thinking you were swimming in the shimmering sea – albeit an unseasonably warm one. You needn’t worry about booking the dud room at the Watersmeet, as almost everyone option offers a sea vista. But for the best view in the house, head to the waterfront Pavilion restaurant for a lobster bisque with brandy cream.
2. Salcombe Harbour Hotel & Spa

3. Gara Rock
Spa Hotel, Hotel
Despite the rugged terrain surrounding Gara Rock – think heather-strewn heaths and dramatic cliffs – this artfully-decorated spa hotel in Devon oozes indulgence. Framed with rustic wood panelling which lends a warming Nordic vibe, the mosaic-tiled indoor pool is where to plunge post-Sauna, while the upper-deck outdoor pool runs alongside the ocean offering all the benefits of wild swimming with the comfort of being able to order a tipple while you paddle.
5. Bovey Castle
Hotel
6. Hotel Du Vin Exeter
Boutique Hotel
Hotel Du Vin’s relaxing REN spa, in the heart of Exeter, is hidden from view behind a walled garden. The pool flows between inside and outside; a few laps (and a Prosecco or two), and you’ll forget you’re in a city that homes two shopping centres, a bustling university and several cinemas and theatres, not to mention the ancient Medieval passages that snake below it all.
7. Osborne Hotel
Boutique Hotel
The pool at the Osborne is such a hit that the hotel offers swim-only memberships, though only for the indoor pool. The outdoor pool is exclusively for hotel guests – who can choose from 33 individually designed rooms – looking out towards Meadfoot Beach, while its bean-shaped silhouette echoes the Regency crescent where the hotel sits.
8. Kaywana Hall
Boutique Hotel
Forget about screaming kids splashing about the pool, Kaywana Hall is adults-only, plus, with an intimate amount of rooms (four, to be precise), there will be no need to lay your towel out the night before either. The wall-to-wall sliding door in the Beech Room leads out to a private terrace overlooking the water and comes with the perk of private access for an early morning swim.
9. Boringdon Hall
Hotel
