2 Bedroom Cottage in Brixham

Escape with your loved ones to this delightful, 200-year-old fisherman's cottage sitting in a car-free area in the heart of the coastal town of Brixham. Sleeping four people across two bedrooms, it's the perfect accommodation choice for small families or groups of friends who want to enjoy a tranquil getaway in Devon together. During the day, hit the coastal trails and soak up the panoramic views from Berry Head Nature Reserve. There are some wonderful scenic walks along the cliffs, and you're sure to spot guillemots, razorbills or dolphins. In the evening, come home to unwind with a glass of wine in the courtyard while admiring the pretty views over the town.

Enter this peaceful hideaway and you'll be welcomed by a spacious open-plan lounge/dining area. Take a moment to relax in the lounge area, which features a quaint exposed brick wall with a characterful wood burner, before heading to the sleek kitchen to whip up something delicious for dinner. Gather everyone around the compact dining table for dinner, or head outside to enjoy an al fresco meal in the charming courtyard. After dinner, warm your toes in front of the crackling wood burner in the lounge area. At the end of the day, head to the first floor and you'll find a smart space that can potentially be used for a travel cot, or as an extra sleeping area for the little ones. Adjacent to that you'll find a contemporary-style family bathroom with a shower cubicle and WC. Along the hall, there's a double bedroom with an ornamental fireplace and views of the harbour. There's also a pull-out bed in that room to accommodate an additional guest. Head to the second floor via the narrow cottage-style stairs and you'll find a double room with a zip-and-link king-size bed (which can be turned into a twin on request) and uninterrupted harbour views.

Head off on a leisurely stroll to Brixham Harbour (1 mile). Walk along the promenade, watch the fishing boats come and go and visit the Golden Hind Museum Ship - a replica of Sir Francis Drake's famous galleon. Alternatively, relax at Shoalstone Beach (1 mile) - a picturesque spot for sunbathing and swimming.
