Property code: OC-BCHARB

Sweeping sea views make this spacious house a tranquil place in which to relax, yet it’s only a short walk down the steps to Brixham’s historic harbour and the town’s shops, bars and restaurants. A great choice for a family getaway or a gathering of friends at any time of the year, and you can even bring a canine companion.

Soft, neutral tones with splashes of blue and white create a calming ambience throughout this lovely property. The lounge, spacious and flooded with light, enjoys a panoramic view through its wall-to-wall sliding doors, and boasts leather seating, a Smart TV, a DVD and a flame-effect electric fire for cosy nights in. The kitchen is similarly bright and airy, and is well equipped for cooking all kinds of delicious meals, with a dining table that seats seven at one end. There’s also a shower room on this floor. On the first floor you’ll find the four bedrooms, all with high-quality furnishings: a super-king-size (twin on request) with a Smart TV/DVD, a king-size, a double and a single - the latter also with a Smart TV/DVD. They share a spacious family bathroom. There are two outside spaces for you to enjoy: the large terrace leading off the lounge that has a dining set for seven and sea views, and a small, sunny patio, equipped with a bistro set, by the entrance door.

The house is located close to the dog-friendly park of Furzeham Green, and is well placed for exploring Brixham on foot. Enjoy the sight of heritage trawlers, fishing boats and yachts in the harbour and marina, and wander the shops and places to eat - perhaps trying some fresh local seafood. Stroll along the promenade and breakwater with its lighthouse, then relax on a deckchair on popular Breakwater Beach.

  • 4 bedrooms – 1 king-size, 1 double, 1 single, 1 super-king-size zip-and-link (can be arranged as a twin on request)
  • 2 bathrooms – 1 bathroom with shower over the bath and WC, 1 shower room with walk-in shower cubicle and WC

We couldnt fault this property or the location. The owners had considered everything, and the kitchen cupboards were stocked with every plate, cup, glass, and utensil you could possibly need, and as a group of 6 we really appreciated the dishwasher. It was spotlessly clean, and the house was tastefully decorated with an appropriate nautical theme, Read morewith wonderful attention to detail, and felt newly done. It seemed very spacious for the six of us that stayed there. Having a garage to park our car in was a bonus, as was the terrace area where we sat and watched the sunsets over the harbour, and the dog walkers in the park next door. The views from the two back bedrooms are stunning. It was a short walk downhill to Brixham harbour and the town, and although it was a relatively steep walk back, there is a bus stop right outside the property. The bus routes from the town are very good and make it easy to get to Torquay, Paignton, Newton Abbot and Exeter for days out. We stayed there as a family of three generations (aged 16 to 77) and all of us agreed it was perfect and the owners had clearly made their guests comfort and convenience a priority. We highly recommend Sail Away (and Brixham) as a holiday destination. Hide

Access to harbour or local coves no good for people with mobility problems. Too hilly and too many steps. Otherwise very well equipped.

As a family of 5 we had an amazing week at Sail Away., There is so much to do locally as well as a short walk or drive away, from the free open air swimming pool, bars, restaurants ,boat trips and beaches. There was more than enough room for us all and there was more than enough equipment. You really don't need to bring anything but toiletries anRead mored beach towels. Having a shower room as well as a bathroom was great with taking 3 teenagers on holiday! Beds were comfy and everyone slept well. There was even a towel for the dog. There are buckets and spades, deck chairs, umbrellas and games/books for rainy days. The location was perfect, being outside of the harbour meant it was nice and peaceful but only a short walk down to the shops, beach and harbour. Although be aware , there are lots of steps down into the town! Local beaches are pebbles although that dint bother any of us, although I would say maybe invest in some beach shoes if you are planning on visiting the local coves and Blackpool Sands. There is a sandy beach at Broadsands Beach. I would definately recommends to friends and family and come back again Hide

Stayed at Sail Away for a week at the beginning of July really great location with a lovely park opposite, perfect for the dog, gorgeous sea views and short walk to the harbour with two fantastic pubs for pitstops on the walk back up the hill, the Queens Arms and the Manor. Sail Away was immaculate, super clean, lots of space and really comfortablRead moree, really well equipped kitchen, bathrooms very modern with good showers, perfect patio area with table and chairs to enjoy the sunshine and views of the sea, stunning sea view from lounge and bedrooms. Having the garage was a real bonus we have stayed in some lovely cottages in Brixham but parking is usually a challenge Sail Away took the stress away so we could pop out in the car on day trips knowing the garage was there when we got back! Highly recommend Sail Away and will be booking again for next year. Also I left an item in the house when we left and Original Cottages were really helpful in sending this back to me really quickly, I was impressed by this service. Hide
