The property

Quiet cottage on the rural edge of Brixham is a homely cottage settled in Brixham, Devon, providing three-storey accommodation, a woodburning stove, and a sheltered courtyard garden.

Enter into the living/dining room, where period touches and soft lighting help to set the scene for unhurried evenings together; spark up the woodburning stove after a day on the English Riviera and gather for films, board games, or a favourite book.

The adjoining kitchen is equipped for holiday cooking, so simple breakfasts, relaxed lunches, and easy suppers all flow naturally before you drift back to the table to map out the next adventure.

On the first floor, a double bedroom and a bunk bedroom offer practical sleeping for parents and children, while the second-floor single room, accessed via a ladder, gives an older child or teen their own hideaway.

The bathroom, with its roll-top bath and separate rainfall shower, invites you to rinse away the salt and sand or soak tired legs after a day on your feet.

Outside, the rear courtyard garden provides a private spot for morning coffee, an evening drink or during the summer months, fire up the barbecue, and with roadside parking nearby, you can come and go with ease. From Quiet cottage on the rural edge of Brixham, you can stroll towards Brixham harbour to watch the daily bustle of fishing boats or join one of the boat trips that reveal a different perspective on the English Riviera.

Stretch your legs along sections of the South West Coastal Path, breathing in sea air and admiring the rugged shoreline as it curves along the bay.

Families can look forward to a day at Paignton Zoo, where time soon disappears among the animal enclosures, while Torquay offers classic seaside amusements and a chance to explore the town associated with Agatha Christie.

Returning each evening, Quiet cottage on the rural edge of Brixham stands as a fine base for exploring Brixham, Devon.

Folding single bed situated in the loft room (Crow's Nest) is suitable only for children to sleep in unsupervised ages 5 to 15 (due to access via a ladder and limited headroom in some areas)

About the location

BRIXHAM

Dartmouth 5 miles; Paignton 6 miles; Torquay 8 miles.

Brixham is a working fishing harbour located on the southern side of Torbay, the area known as The English Riviera, famed for its sunny mild climate all year round. The focal point of the harbour is a life size replica of The Golden Hind, Sir Francis Drake’s ship. The prettiest part of Brixham has small cottages in hilly narrow winding lanes leading to the harbour where all the activity is centred. Home to Britain’s largest fishing fleet which regularly lands their catch in the harbour, Brixham fish market sells to major restaurants in the UK. 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 throughout the year. There are a host of safe cycle trails in the area, the South West Coastal Path and some of the best golf courses in the region. A good mix of relaxation or action, to suit all ages, where you are never far from the sea.
