Inner Hope is a tiny hamlet tucked into the head of a sheltered cove within Hope Cove in the South Hams district of Devon, England. A short pebble beach and low cliffs front a snug row of old fishermen’s cottages and narrow lanes; it pairs with neighbouring Outer Hope to form the picture‑postcard bay that many visitors come to see.
Historically a small fishing community with the usual smuggling lore of the South Devon coast, Inner Hope now relies largely on seasonal tourism - holiday lets, a pub and a handful of local businesses - and is popular with walkers and wildlife‑watchers thanks to the nearby South West Coast Path. Its relatively secluded, low‑key character and limited road access help preserve a strong sense of local community and coastal heritage.
