  • Three-storey marine house offering fantastic views over Brixham Marina
  • Upside-down layout to make the most of the views
Property code: BX026

Boasting a fantastic location overlooking Brixham’s marina, this three-storey home is the perfect choice for those in search of a relaxing coastal break. Its quirky layout makes the most of the spectacular views to be enjoyed from most of its rooms. With the town centre and harbour just a short walk away, this two-bedroom cottage would perfectly suit couples or small families who are looking to really soak up the English Riviera atmosphere.

Entering this stylish property on the first floor, you’ll discover a contemporary kitchen/diner with a wide Juliet balcony, which allows for unrivalled views across the harbour. Rustle up some freshly caught seafood which you’ve picked up at the town’s fish market, before settling down to eat together at the dining table. Take the stairs up to the light and airy lounge, arguably the most impressive room in the house, which is dominated by floor-to-ceiling windows. Step out onto the spacious balcony and enjoy a morning coffee while you watch the boats come and go, or if you’re in the mood for a little al fresco dining, settle back with a glass of wine to watch the sun set. When it’s time to rest, you’ll be heading downstairs to the welcoming bedrooms on the ground floor. Juliet balconies in both ensure you’ll wake up to that wonderful view across the harbour.

Explore the pretty town of Torquay by hopping on the passenger ferry across the bay. Berry Head National Nature Reserve (1.5 miles) is a haven for wildlife and history lovers and has some fantastic walks to enjoy, with spectacular views out to sea. For a more relaxed pace, pack a picnic and head to Breakwater Beach, which is just half a mile from the cottage.

 

  • Two bedrooms:
  • 1 king-size bed
  • 1 twin(3ft bed and a 2ft 6in bed)
  • Bathroom with shower-over-bath and WC, plus cloakroom with WC
  • 55 inch Smart TV.+ DVD in the main lounge
  • TV in the dining area
  • Electric oven, gas hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer.
  • Top Gallant includes very rare designated parking on a private driveway, which is very much worth the walk of between 5 and 15 minutes- dependent on how directly you go and how quickly you walk. Alternatively, you can choose a slightly shorter walk to free parking in the roads surrounding the property
  • Seafront, pub, and shops all within walking distance
  • Like many Brixham harbour properties, the wooden staircase is original so turns with some restricted head height and may not be suitable for anyone who suffers from significant mobility issues
  • Brixham is busy fishing village situated on a very steep hill, so access to some parts of the village can be challenging.
  • Many of the amenities and cottages in Brixham are accessed via steps some of which can be steep. Please contact us if you have specific requirements.
  • There are many small winding streets that are not suitable for cars.
  • The owners regret that no form of 'Welcome Pack' can be provided as they do not live in Devon and as the cleaners are unable to do so
  • This property will be decorated for Christmas
  • Arrival: 15:00 onwards
  • Departure: before 10:00, unless otherwise stated in your arrival details
  • Sorry, no dogs allowed

Good views over the inner harbour. It was nice to have the double doors open in the kitchen dinner while having breakfast, this brings the open air feeling alfresco with the lovely views.

Fabulous views and located close to the town Centre. As mentioned by other guests, the stairs are narrow and very curved but manageable with care. Plenty of space in the dining room and living room. Good facilities but plumbing needs some attention.

If a view of Brixham Harbour Bowl is top of your list then Top Gallant delivers in abundance. A lovely three storey cottage overlooking the harbour with outside space to take in the spectacular vista and watch the bustle of the port day and night. Stairs as mentioned by other reviews were a challenge but the cottage layout helped navigate room usagRead moree. The house had all that you needed and located close to town for all supplies. Car parking space really useful. Hide

Amazing views and a very convenient location for shops and restaurants by the harbour. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. The stairs need to be taken a bit carefully but not a problem when you get used to them.

We loved the position of this cottage. We couldn't get over the wonderful views of Brixham Harbour. The stairs need to be used very carefully but we had no problems as long as you take them carefully. Great having dedicated parking as parking in Brixham is near on impossible. I am looking at going back as I loved it so much.
