Sous Chef

Who we are…

Harbour Hotels are a collection of prestigious hotels nestled in some of the most beautiful locations across the South. Our luxury portfolio spans sensational coastal, country and city properties with a variety of exciting restaurant concepts and our unique HarSPA brand across many of our sites. In 2018, Harbour Hotels was named AA Hotel Group of the Year making it an exceptionally exciting time to join our ever growing hotel brand.

Welcome to the award-winning Salcombe Harbour Hotel & Spa, recognised as one of the most desirable waterside hotels in the UK and the premier address on the south coast. A multi-million pound refurbishment has created a chic new luxury spa hotel on the edge of Salcombe Estuary, complete with a coastal retreat spa, private cinema, waterside restaurant with wide outdoor terraces and dedicated wedding venue; all taking in the panoramic vista, overlooking one of the most dramatic coastlines in the UK.

Wake up to exceptional views across the Salcombe estuary, as you slide open your balcony doors and breathe in the fresh Devon sea air. Head off to explore the coastline, before returning to recline on the rooftop terrace, looking out across the water as the yachts sail by. Why not treat yourself with a spa day or an even more indulgent spa break, as you escape to our luxurious HarSPA.

The hotel’s Jetty restaurant takes full advantage of its estuary location, with menus created by award winning Chef Alex Aitken and top local chefs delivering fresh and seasonal dishes. Unique to The Jetty is the restaurant’s Crustacean Bar, with the day’s fresh catch to choose from. With numerous outdoor terraces, enjoy al fresco dining at its most spectacular.
