This cosy harbourside bolthole overlooks the water in the vibrant fishing town of Brixham. Spend your days dipping in and out of the many cafes and restaurants in the town or watching the boats bob on the water, and your evenings sipping a glass of fizz on the waterside balcony back at your home from home.

Inside, this truly relaxing romantic retreat has been beautifully furnished throughout. On the ground floor, the stylish open-plan kitchen/dining area has French doors onto the front and rear courtyards, offering ample opportunity to dine alfresco and soak up the sea breeze. It’s well equipped with everything you might need to rustle up a romantic meal and also has a cute dining table for candlelit dinners. Head upstairs to the bedroom and bathroom on the first floor, both decorated in a refined, cottage style for ultimate relaxation. Up on the second floor, the living room makes the most of the fabulous harbour views which are best enjoyed from the balcony, which floods the room with light.

Brixham has a good range of shops, cafes and restaurants, making it one of the most popular spots on the South Devon coast; this cottage puts you at the heart of it all, with the centre within 400 metres.
