About this property

This Grade II-listed barn conversion, 1 Alston Farm Cottages, is perfectly located in a peaceful courtyard setting in Churston Ferrers, Devon. This charming escape has a little bit of everything for a break with friends or family, with off-road parking, close proximity to local amenities and the beach, and character features throughout. Enter into a charming hallway where you can hang your coats and begin to appreciate the property's charm with its distinctive curved staircase. Enter the fully-equipped kitchen/dining room and use the coffee machine before sitting down at the table or going outside to the courtyard to plan your itinerary. Patio doors lead from here to the sitting room, where you can relax in front of the electric stove and watch Smart TV or read a book after a day of exploring. Exposed stone features throughout the property, with vaulted ceilings in the bedrooms, add an extra touch of authenticity. The bedrooms include a ground-floor double served by a sleek shower room, as well as another double and a handy triple, ideal for children or friends sharing, each with their own en-suite. When you're ready to explore, head to Churston Cove for a seaside picnic, or avid golfers can put their skills to the test at Churston Golf Course. Nature lovers can spend an afternoon at Berry Head National Nature Reserve before heading around the coast to St. Mary's Bay. Travel to Dartmouth and explore the Harbour, the National Trust's Little Dartmouth, or the Blue Flag-awarded Blackpool Sands beach. Babbacombe Model Village, Paignton Zoo, and other family-friendly attractions can be found in the opposite direction. With so much to see and do, 1 Alston Farm Cottages is a great place to start.

Brixham is a working fishing port on the southern side of Torbay, in the area known as The English Riviera, which is famous for its sunny mild climate all year. The focal point of the harbour is a life-size replica of Sir Francis Drake's ship, The Golden Hind. Brixham's most picturesque area features small cottages in hilly narrow winding lanes leading to the harbour, where all the action takes place. Brixham fish market sells to major restaurants in the UK and is home to Britain's largest fishing fleet, which regularly lands their catch in the harbour.
