Overview
Property code: OC-BCHARB

A large holiday home with four bedrooms and flexible sleeping options, ideal for larger or multi-generational families and friend groups. The peaceful, elevated location above Brixham is perfect for people who want to be a little removed from the busy town centre but close enough to enjoy all the sights. Less than half a mile away is the historic harbour, which forms the hub of this busy fishing town, And it’s just over half a mile to the beaches of Fishcombe and Churston Cove. Walkers can join the South West Coast Path and discover more beaches or head through the Berry Head Nature Reserve, past the Shoalstone Seawater Swimming Pool (1 mile) to the shortest lighthouse in the UK at Berry Head (2 miles).

This spacious, stylish home has plenty of room for up to seven guests. From the hallway, enter the attractively finished kitchen, where you’ll find all the space and equipment you need to cater for your party, plus a long dining table with seating for seven. Head through to the comfortable lounge, where you’ll be struck by the beautiful sea and park view through the wall of patio doors. Relax on the two luxurious leather sofas or armchairs and watch the Smart TV or the flame-effect electric fire. Also, on the ground floor is a shower room. The first floor holds a second bathroom with a shower over the bath and the four bedrooms. The main bedroom features a king-size bed and wide windows with lovely views of the park and sea. The double bedroom also enjoys sea views while the single looks out at the park and has a Smart TV. The fourth bedroom also has a Smart TV and features zip-and-link beds which can be made up as twins or a super-king-size depending on your party's needs.

At the front of this property is a large patio with a table and seating. It enjoys expansive views of the dog-friendly park opposite, across Brixham to the harbour and out to sea. It's the ideal place to sit with an evening drink and watch the sun go down. A second smaller patio has a bistro table and chairs and is a lovely spot to sit with a morning coffee.

This is a lovely holiday home, it is the second time we have visited and offers the most stunning views. Easy access to the town with a lovely green grocers and butchers, although it is hilly so had to take my parents down in the car due to mobility issues but this was no problem. Small craft market with different stalls daily on the harbour. FiRead moreshcombe Bay is 10 minutes walk and is small but lovely and has a tea shack. Hide

Wonderful home in a vibrant pretty town. There was everything we needed in the house to enjoy our holiday. The town definitely delivered. It had a wonderful atmosphere with pubs offering live music some days and lots of fresh fish and seafood in the restaurants. The bay has calm, clear waters nice and easy to swim in (cold though!) The walk baRead moreck from town is a tough one so do expect to be out of breath!! Hide

Very well equipped 4 bedroom property with great views overlooking a park and the bay of Torbay. Property is a short walk to the pretty Harbour. Visitors should be prepared for the steep hills although there is a local bus from the centre to outside the property. Plenty of choice of local restaurants and takeaways.

Very clean and comfortable, and lovely views. The parking was not easy we had 2 cars! We managed to find a space at the side of the house. We managed to keep the space as we put the car from the garage into the space when we went out as we could all fit into one car.

We had expected one room with twin beds but it was made up as a double. We managed but not as we had expected Really well equipped kitchen. Very comfortable sofas and great outdoor seating too, the view is stunning.

Fantastic Christmas week at Sail Away. The house had been beautifully decorated. Really well equipped with everything we needed and great location with such easy access to Battery Gardens and the coastal path. Weve stayed in multiple holiday lets in Brixham over the years and this definitely is one of the best.

We couldnt fault this property or the location. The owners had considered everything, and the kitchen cupboards were stocked with every plate, cup, glass, and utensil you could possibly need, and as a group of 6 we really appreciated the dishwasher. It was spotlessly clean, and the house was tastefully decorated with an appropriate nautical theme, Read morewith wonderful attention to detail, and felt newly done. It seemed very spacious for the six of us that stayed there. Having a garage to park our car in was a bonus, as was the terrace area where we sat and watched the sunsets over the harbour, and the dog walkers in the park next door. The views from the two back bedrooms are stunning. It was a short walk downhill to Brixham harbour and the town, and although it was a relatively steep walk back, there is a bus stop right outside the property. The bus routes from the town are very good and make it easy to get to Torquay, Paignton, Newton Abbot and Exeter for days out. We stayed there as a family of three generations (aged 16 to 77) and all of us agreed it was perfect and the owners had clearly made their guests comfort and convenience a priority. We highly recommend Sail Away (and Brixham) as a holiday destination. Hide
