Buses, Brixham and Bond
I now can't remember how many times we've stayed in the lighthouse apartment at Sunnybeach, but this was the latest in a long line of visits, and once again didn't disappoint. We arrived early on the first day, after a now very familiar drive from North Bucks, dumped the car in the on-site car park and set about the business of walking for 2mins to the main street and having a pint and some lunch, followed by a quick 5min stroll to the pier because, well, you have to, it's the seaside. The text then arrived to tell us the apartment was ready so we ambled back and unpacked. A sit down and a cup of tea later, and License To Kill came on the tele, which was particularly apt as will soon become clear. Then it was time for a quick hot shower and heading out to enjoy a bit of Paignton nightlife. Next day was glorious (for November), particularly waking up to a sea view. Some brek cooked in the apartment kitchen, then a 2min walk to the harbour and a sit down to take it all in, and it was time for the very short walk over to the bus station and a ride to Brixham for a look around the shops and market, a cheeky couple of pints, and a fish and chip lunch...come on, it's Brixham! Then a leisurely stroll back to the car park where the buses stop. After a chilled-out late afternoon mainly back at the apartment it was time to get on the bus to Torquay where we had tickets for the James Bond Spectacular concert at the Princess Theatre..the bus stops 2 or 3 mins walk along the seafront! After a great concert it was a short walk to catch the bus back (they run till the early hours!) and it was back to Sunnybeach for another lovely night's kip. Next morning saw us up and on the bus again, back to Torquay this time in the daylight, for some shopping, and of course a few drinkies...well we are on holiday! Back to Paignton in the afternoon for a bit of a seafront siesta at Sunnybeach, then a lovely Chinese from the Rickshaw Boy just by the harbour. After another night's peaceful sleep it was back to Brixham for a slightly more rainy repeat of the other day...there was some shopping and drinking we hadn't quite finished...and then back for our final night before packing up, enjoying one last sleep and heading off first thing next morning, which was the first time I'd touched the car since we arrived. We couldn't ask for more, apartment central to everywhere, right on the sea front, parking, seamless arrival/departure, spotless and lovely bathroom and kitchen facilities, not to mention the smart TV. This why we keep coming back here. Happy days!
