A characterful cottage with sea views, close to Brixham’s bustling harbour.
A characterful cottage with sea views, close to Brixham’s bustling harbour.. Ground Floor:
Living/dining room: Freeview TV, DVD Player, CD Player, DVDs, Games, Woodburner
Kitchen: Gas Oven, Gas Hob, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Dishwasher, Washing Machine, Tumble Dryer
Separate Toilet.
First Floor:
Bedroom 1: Kingsize (5ft) Bed, TV
Bedroom 2: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds
Bathroom: Roll Top Bath, Cubicle Shower, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet, (Also Accessible From Bedroom 1)
Second Floor:
Bedroom 3: Double (4ft 6in) Bed, TV. Heating, gas, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Cot and highchair available on request. Front patio with garden furniture. Rear courtyard. On road parking; parking permit for public car park, at cost. No smoking.. With a setting close to Brixham’s town centre and harbour side, Fishlegs is a beautiful three bedroom cottage set across three floors. Features such as exposed wooden beams, a roll-top bath and a wood burner mean that Fishlegs still has its original character and charm. It’s stylish décor throughout makes this cottage ideal for a families and romantic getaways alike.
When the sun shines, the pretty little patio at the front of the cottage makes the perfect spot to sit back and enjoy the harbour views, and you can catch glimpses out to sea from inside the living/dining room too. When it’s time to step inside, the whole cottage has been decorated to a standard that’ll take your breath away, and the living area has all the warmth of a classic cottage yet the comfort of contemporary furnishings.
Step into the master bedroom and prepare to feel your jaw drop, with harbour views and an en-suite, this bedroom has been thoughtfully prepared with relaxation in mind. The second bedroom overlooks the rear garden and has twin beds and the third bedroom has beautiful harbour views thanks to its attic setting. Recently named one of the 10 coolest seaside towns in the UK, you’ll find Brixham in the ever-popular Torbay, and with a thriving café culture that centres around the busy harbour, the town’s cobbled streets and spectacular coastal scenery have made it a firm favourite with visitors to south Devon.
