The Millbrook Inn

The Millbrook Inn is a tucked-away estuary pub in South Pool, a couple of miles inland from Salcombe, where dogs are welcome inside throughout. Settle in by the fire with your dog at your feet while you work your way through the food menu and a pint with the locals at the bar. The kitchen serves lunch Thursday to Saturday and Sunday, with dinner Wednesday to Saturday evening.

Expect a proper local feel, strong food and the kind of atmosphere that rewards a longer estuary-side day out. Dogs can stay with you in the dining areas, so no one's left outside while you eat.

This is a strong countryside pub choice for dog owners exploring the creeks and footpaths around the Salcombe estuary. The pub is open Monday to Sunday, with closing times that vary through the week, so it's worth checking ahead if you're planning a late visit.
