About this property
With views that reach down to Brixham’s bustling harbour and out across the sea toward Torbay, Quayside View offers all the comforts of home in prime coastal setting. With ample space for families to relax and friends to unwind, the property is just a short walk to the harbour and town’s amenities.
Boasting parking on a private drive, a rarity in Brixham, steps lead up to the balcony and into the welcoming sitting room. Furnished with cream leather sofas and chairs positioned for taking in views between rooftops of the harbour below. A dining room with further comfortable seating leads through to the galley style kitchen with breakfast bar, a convenient spot to perch for morning coffee. The ground floor bathroom can be found at the rear of the property with a back door opening onto an enclosed courtyard with seating. Three attractive and bright bedrooms can be found upstairs, dressed with coastal flourishes and colours. A spacious kingsize double with superb views towards the harbour and out to sea. A twin room and further bunk room that children will love, complete the accommodation. To the front, a terraced balcony with seating will be a favoured place to enjoy the comings and goings of the harbour below, whilst soaking up the coastal air. Parking on the driveway for 2 cars. A thriving fishing port and now very popular tourist destination, Brixham has something to offer all ages and interests. A short walk downhill from the cottage will take you to the busy harbour, lined with cafes and restaurants, a lovely spot to sit and watch as the trawlers land their daily catch. Stroll along beside the marina and on for a dip in the iconic Shoalstone sea water swimming pool. For a swim in the sea, Breakwater Beach and Fishcombe Cove can be reached on foot and a little further away the magnificent beaches of Torbay are perfect for family days out. For younger ones there are plenty of attractions including Paignton Zoo, Babbacombe Model Village, Living Coasts and Quaywest Waterpark. Agatha Christie’s Greenway House is nearby at Galmpton. This location makes for a memorable seaside stay at any time of year.
Brixham is a working fishing harbour located on the southern side of Torbay, the area known as The English Riviera. The prettiest part of Brixham has small cottages in hilly narrow winding lanes leading to the harbour where all the activity is centred. Brixham is the ideal destination for a traditional holiday with many family attractions around Torbay including two Blue Flag beaches, Paignton Zoo and many regattas and maritime events.

The parking spaces were an added bonus and communication with the owners was fantastic. We had a wonderful stay and can not recommend this property highly enough.

The property itself was very clean and tidy and it had everything you would need for your stay whether it be a long weekend, a week or even 2 weeks. It had everything you would need regarding utensils for cooking your own food if that was your intention during your stay. The bedrooms and the beds were very clean and comfortable and there was a great view from the front bedroom window and there was even binoculars sitting in the front bedroom to take in the view from the bedroom window. There was a lovely little touch in the dining room of a bottle of wine, which we did leave untouched, and a small box of shortbread biscuits and a small box of fudge, which we did eat. We did hire a car for our visit to Brixham and it was great that we were able to park it in off the road in the parking area at the front of the house. Overall there is absolutely nothing negative we could say about this property as everything was prefect for us and we would certainly stay here again.

All was modern, clean and comfortable and everything had been thought of. The views from the house were second to none! Having your own parking space was great but difficult to get out of when someone parked on the road opposite. Not far to walk into town, but could be difficult walking back for some - we had our daily workout several times a day! We will definitely be back!
