With superb panoramic views from the balcony, this modern and comfortable penthouse apartment makes for a great family getaway

Enjoy a holiday to remember with friends or family in this stunning apartment on the English Riviera. The top-floor apartment is located at the top of a steep hill – right in the heart of Brixham – and enjoys magnificent sea views. Stroll out of your front door and into the bustling harbour, where you’ll find a fantastic range of restaurants, many serving local seafood. Keen walkers will be in their element, with the South West Coast Path passing through the town. After a busy day, relax on your private balcony.

Stairs lead to this stylish third-floor apartment. The bright and airy accommodation is decorated in a contemporary style, with vibrant soft furnishings and beautiful seascapes. The hub of the home is an open-plan lounge/diner, with dual-aspect windows framing spectacular harbour views. Unwind on the comfortable sofas, or enjoy memorable mealtimes at the table by the window. The adjoining kitchen has everything you need to whip up delicious feasts for the group. When it’s time to say goodnight, retire to the inviting double bedroom or the spacious super-king-size (which can be made up as a twin on request). A sleek shower room completes the property. Doors lead from the lounge/diner to a full-width balcony – the perfect place to sip a sundowner and admire the panoramic vista.

Brixham is a photographer’s paradise, with its quaint, cobbled streets and colourful houses. Take time to explore the town, popping into the cute galleries and tearooms, before heading to the harbour to pick up some fresh fish for your supper. You can take boat trips from the town to explore Torbay, or journey across to Paignton or Torquay for the day. Nature lovers must visit Berry Head National Nature Reserve (1.5 miles), with its plethora of rare wildlife and jaw-dropping views along the coast.
