Devon Beach Guide

Stoke Beach

Location:
West Devon.
Description:
Stoke Beach is a picturesque beach below a large caravan park called Revelstoke Park. The beach is grey sand and shingle and there are large rocky areas with rock pools. The beach is usually quiet as parking is very limited and there are no facilities. Note there has been a recent land slide above the beach, so keep well clear of the cliff base.
Safety:
Risk of rock falls, keep well clear of cliff base. See Beach Safety Guide.
Access:
Beach access is via steep metal steps, not suitable for wheel chairs.
Dogs:
Dogs allowed all year.
Directions:
Stoke Beach is about 12 miles from Plymouth. From the Plymouth direction take the A379 east to Yealmpton. Alternatively from South Devon take the A379 west to Yealmpton. At Yealmpton turn south onto the B3186 which is signposted to Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo (5 miles). At Newton Ferrers, after the shops on the right, turn left (signposted to Bridgend, Noss Mayo and Stoke Beach) and follow this road down to Bridgend and then up to Noss Mayo. At Noss Mayo take a left turning signposted to Stoke Beach. Continue on this road out of Noss Mayo into countryide and continue on this road until it reaches a left bend and opposite the bend there is a small lane signposted to Stoke Beach. Follow this lane down to the car park above Revelstoke Park. Then from the car park walk down the road and take a footpath signposted to Stoke Beach. Alternatively instead of taking the lane opposite the bend, turn right and follow this road until it reaches the National Trust Stoke Point car park. Park here and take a path across the field which joins the coast path. It takes about 30-40 minutes to walk from the Stoke Point car park to Stoke Beach.
