Stay close to the harbour and reap the benefits of a seaside retreat. Take morning strolls into the vibrant town of Brixham to pick up a paper or pop into one of the many eateries for a wholesome breakfast. Feel at home surrounded by walls of books, pretty views and an inviting wood burner. In the evenings find somewhere to perch and watch the sunset; the show doesn’t stop when it’s gone, the colours and lights of Brixham play on the water and the atmosphere is magical.
This three-storey cottage is set close to Brixham’s town centre but the compelling landscape of Dartmoor is within easy reach. The spacious and light interior takes inspiration from its picturesque location with eclectic details and a relaxed feel throughout. After days of exploring Brixham and other treasures on Devon’s southern coast, you can look forward to a film by the fire and a satisfying night’s sleep in one of the three bedrooms. The garden is made up of several terraced patio spaces, each furnished so you can enjoy balmy evenings under the stars. A parking space is provided to the side of the property.
Perched in an elevated position, guests should be advised that you will need to climb steep steps to reach this property. Brixham itself is a harbour town with a proud maritime history, which visitors may like to explore by jumping on board the fascinating replica of the Golden Hind. There are several beaches within easy reach of the town centre, including Shoalstone Beach, which has the additional draw of a wonderful 53-metre tidal pool, providing safe bathing all year round. The cathedral city of Exeter is less than a 30-mile drive away and is the place for shopaholics.
