About this property
There’s something very special about holidays in Brixham. A South Devon town in Torbay made famous by its fish quay and working harbour, modern Brixham is awash with pretty cottages and ice cream shops, its vibrant atmosphere made even more enticing now that its foodie scene is flourishing. This is a lovely slice of the coastline and one that is particularly popular with families, owing to its proximity to some of Torbay’s best beaches and attractions, so if you’re looking for a fabulous getaway for both adults and children, it doesn’t get better!
The property’s two bedrooms (one a super king and one a twin) offer plenty of room for four guests, while the open plan living room and decked terrace sport wonderful views over the town and out towards the sea.
Inside there’s a well-equipped kitchen with plenty of worktop space, so if you fancy rustling up a home cooked creation or two, you’ll have everything you need to do so. When the weather’s bright you’ll be able to sit outside and enjoy afternoon drinks or fresh air dining while watching the sun set, and the apartment’s private garden gives children lots of space to play games or laze in the sunshine.
Brixham’s vibrant harbour forms the heart of the town and it’s here that you’ll discover places like Rockfish, Albero’s, Beamers and Simply Fish. If you like to start your day with a coffee, The Curious Kitchen serves a mean flat white (as well as sweet and savoury pastries), and if you’re even hungrier you’ll need to grab one of Porto Espresso’s Breakfast sandwiches.
Children will delight in crabbing off the quay, a local pastime that is synonymous with Torbay, or if they fancy feeling like Jack Sparrow for the day, there’s a wonderful replica of Sir Francis Drake’s Golden Hind galleon that rests right in the harbour. Stroll past the marina and take in the scenes of sprawling ocean and sailing boats or buy an ice cream and walk to the end of the Breakwater for a terrific view back towards the town.
*Please note that a lot of the town of Brixham is built on the hills surrounding the harbour below. This property is a short yet steep walk up a hill from the town centre
