Overview

Set just a short walk up from the harbour and marina, The Retreat offers guests a fully kitted out and beautifully furnished holiday pad that’s within easy reach of the town’s restaurants, shops and beaches where all the family can enjoy the delights of coastal life in complete comfort. Inside, the home is light, bright, clean and spacious, with plenty of room for relaxation and socialising. Arranged over two floors, upstairs there’s a large open plan kitchen/diner, and living room which has sliding doors that lead on to a furnished balcony with sea views in the distance. The family bathroom with a separate shower and bath along with two generous bedrooms are also on this floor, both of which are tastefully styled and feature king size beds as well as plenty of storage.

Downstairs, the home’s third bedroom has ‘zip and link’ twin beds which can be made up as a king, to offer versatility to suit all guest parties. There’s also a cloakroom and utility as well as a movie room, with bean bags and a large flat screen TV where you can dim the lights, grab the popcorn and settle in for your very own cinema experience. To the back of the property, a terrific garden with decked patio, BBQ and dining suite means outdoor dining and entertainment are firmly on the agenda, and guests with dogs and / or children can watch them play in the sunshine as lunch sizzles away on the grill.

Brixham is one of Devon’s most popular holiday destinations and it’s easy to see why. With a working harbour and famous fish quay, freshly caught local seafood graces many of its restaurants’ menus including Rockfish, Simply Fish, Beamers and Alberos. The town is also awash with independent shops, cafes and bakeries, with The Wine Loft a must-visit spot for anyone who enjoys speciality wines and deliciously paired nibbles. The coast path makes a lovely day out whether walking up to Berry Head Nature Reserve or down to the coves at Fishcombe and Churston, and visitors with pushchairs or limited mobility can enjoy a gentle stroll along the Breakwater; an ice cream in hand of course!

Welcome to Brixham

There’s a nostalgic feeling to Brixham holidays that makes them feel a world away from the daily grind; a friendliness from the locals who call the town home as well as a tangible connection to its seafaring past. This picturesque town perched quietly on Devon’s south coast is still a bustling fishing port, where clusters of colourful cottages in every shade of the rainbow seemingly tumble down the hill towards the harbour’s quay, with boats and trawlers offloading their daily hauls ready to be transformed into the local restaurants’ ‘catch of the day’.

Brixham stay at the Retreat
4.7/5

An excellent base to explore Brixham and the surrounding area. The Retreat was very comfortable with a lot of luxury features. The children loved the cinema room. Easy walk to centre of Brixham and good parking at the property.

Ideal location
4.7/5

The house was a lovely size and we had plenty of room for the 6 of us and the dog. The only downside was that I noticed a few places that I felt wasn't quite clean enough, and it would have been nice to have notice that we needed to bring some extra dishwasher tablets and toilet roll. Other than that I would book again and just bring the extras that I felt we needed. Great stay.

Frequent visitor to Brixham, our first to The Retreat. Fabulous house in a fabulous location. The house offers excellent value and is very well appointed. Could not fault any part of this holiday from booking with Luxury Coastal to the holiday itself! Have booked to return.

Needs some improvement
3.7/5

Like other comments there is a damp smell on the lower floor. There is a drainage problem, the drain overflows outside of the back door. This was reported on the arrival day and visit promised but no one turned up. The rear garden is difficult to access and this should be on the description. The property needs a bit of Paint especially around the lower areas. Upstairs is modern and comfortable. Location is close to the local amenities.

Guest, 25 Aug 2023

Hi Lee, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on your stay at The Retreat, Brixham. We are so sorry to hear of the damp smell, the owner is exploring other options to ventilate the property to ensure this get rectified and is also repainting the property shortly. The roof was recently cleaned, it would seem some moss was clogged in the drains and we do apologise that this wasn't rectified during your stay. We are pleased to hear that the location was great for you close to the local amenities and that the upstairs of the property was modern and comfortable for you. We do hope to welcome you to stay with Luxury Coastal again in the future. Best Wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team
