About Brixham

brixham
  • Great coastal walks
  • Explore the maritime history
  • Take the ferry to Torquay

A cosy coastal town with beautiful views and rambling countryside, Brixham can be found at the south end of the English Riviera. A busy fishing port with a fascinating history, including the inspiration for world famous hymns and being the landing place of William Prince of Orange, this picturesque corner of Devon is a delight to explore. From the bustling harbour filled with trawlers and yachts, to the tranquil nature reserve at Berry Head, there is plenty to enjoy during your stay.

Restaurants, pubs, bistros and cafes line the harbour along with colourful cottages, whilst families can enjoy the many attractions in the region. The coastline is interspersed with coves such as Churston, Fishcombe and St. Mary’s Bay if you are looking for a quieter beach, while Breakwater beach has parking, a lifeguard in the summer and the Breakwater Bistro serving meals and takeaway food.

Full Property Description

Crab Pot Cottage forms part of a complex of fishermen’s cottages on the peaceful St Peter’s Hill, above the High Street with its shops, cafés and restaurants. On-street parking is available at the top of the hill. Although positioned in this peaceful location the harbour and town centre are less than a minutes walk away, and can be viewed from every room in the cottage and from the shared garden.

From St Peter’s Hill, which is a fairly steep slope, the cottage can be reached on foot by approx 15 steps that lead directly into the garden or by going up St Peter's Steps; both accessible from the high street.

The interior of the cottage has been furnished to the highest of standards and decorated in contemporary neutral, contrasted by white woodwork and beamed ceilings. Added touches such as the chrome rail and coat hooks in the hall and built-in bookshelves on the stairs means there is a place for everything. The property has full gas central heating. On arrival you will receive a welcome pack.

Parking permits can be purchased entitling you to unlimited parking in any council owned car park across Torbay. Please call 0844 561 2001 to arrange.
