Bask in the sunny delights of the English Riviera at this beautiful property in the bustling fishing town of Brixham. It’s perfect for couples or older families who want to enjoy some seaside fun with their four-legged friends. Take a boat trip to Torquay with your intrepid sea dogs before returning home for a relaxing glass of wine on the patio.

This light and airy property is beautifully understated and uncluttered, with thoughtful maritime-themed touches throughout. Kick off your shoes or wipe down dirty paws in the lobby before stepping into the warm and welcoming open-plan living area. Light fills the lounge through the French doors that lead out to the garden. Sink into the sofa to watch SkyTV and stroke your beloved hounds as they daydream about chasing rabbits. Cook up a storm in the pristine white kitchen and, on balmy summer evenings, take your meals outside to dine alfresco in the enclosed rear garden. After a tiring day exploring, head upstairs to rest your weary limbs in the spacious king-size bedrooms. Wake up to sea views in the master bedroom and garden views in the second room.

Torbay is a very dog-friendly area, so you’ll find plenty to keep your inquisitive mutts happy here. Walk to the dramatic Berry Head at the end of the road or discover more about Brixham’s maritime history with a wander around the harbour, less than a mile from the property. Feel the sand between your toes (or paws!) on Goodrington North Sands (5 miles) or experience the world in miniature with a stroll round Babbacombe Model Village (10.5 miles). Your canine adventurers can also join you on a trip aboard the Dartmouth Steam Railway (5 miles) which runs through the beautiful Dart Valley.

A most comfortable, warm, and cosy cottage, accurately described and illustrated in the information provided.

The cottage was absolutely perfect. Rosie our little dog loved the garden. Beds comfy, beautiful open living space with Sky TV in bad weather. Kitchen very well equipped with a lovely welcome packRead more on arrival. Yes it's a steep walk back up from the harbour (15 minutes walk down at my pace!) but a regular bus from the harbour stopped right outside the cottage or a taxi was 5. Nice walk up to Berry Head.
