Overview
This lovely home with its Victorian terrace facade and beautifully designed interior creates a fabulous coastal retreat for all the family. Recently refurbished to a superb standard, the house which sleeps six, boasts three immaculate bedrooms along with airy open plan living / dining, a high spec kitchen, two bathrooms and an outdoor utility and games room. Gorgeous furnishings, fabulous wall art and contemporary styling are surpassed only by the exceptional views of the harbour and bay which can be enjoyed from all three floors of the cottage, so whether early risers or night owls, guests can witness the changing moods of the sea and town below from their own unique vantage point.
With attention paid to every detail by the home’s owners, expect superior quality throughout, like luxurious beds from Feather & Black with Harrison Spinks and Hypnos mattresses, Sonos Bluetooth speakers, Grohe rainfall showers and furniture by brands like Loaf and Habitat. Outside there’s a sun-drenched furnished terrace for those all-important evening drinks or for alfresco dining, and for those partial to sunbathing or to catching up on their holiday reading in the fresh air, they'll be able to laze back on the balcony and soak up the views.

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’.

Such a lovely house that had everything you could possibly need. The views of the harbour were outstanding. Probably the best holiday cottage we have stayed in. The host was exceptional as to let us change our booking due to the arrival of our first grandchild. Well deserved a 100% feedback.

A beautiful, clean, stylish, house with everything we could possibly need for a week in Brixham. The garage was easy to get in and out of and following the handy instructions was easy to get to. Loved the games room for pool and the Xbox. Yes the steps are very steep in the garden, but worth it for all the facilities. The views are unbelievable, especially from the top bedroom with it's balcony. Would definitely recommend and return.
