Located in the heart of Brixham and surrounded by streets steeped in history is Harbour Sails Cottage, a traditional and character filled fishermen’s rest with some of the best views in town. Whether you’re looking for a relaxing break watching the world go by or an action packed getaway exploring the attractions of Torbay, this is the perfect destination.
Inside, the cottage is spread over four floors and has been newly refurbished in a cheerful nautical style and has fantastic views over Brixham Harbour. The open plan kitchen and dining area is bright and offers the perfect space to enjoy a nice cooked breakfast before heading out for the day. You can even step out onto your own terrace and admire the views over the harbour.
You will find two spacious bedrooms, one on the first floor and one on the second, both of which have been beautifully finished offering fantastic views of Brixham's bustling harbourside. If you fancy a bit of privacy from the rest of the group, both bedrooms also have flatscreen TVs, ideal for relaxing with a good film.
Harbour Sails Cottage is set in the perfect location for getting to know Brixham. Just a minute’s walk away you will find yourself at the picturesque harbour and the famous Golden Hind replica. If you fancy a traditional portion of fish and chips or sampling some local seafood, you’ll be spoilt for choice. Wander a little further and you’ll find Breakwater Beach and Shoalstone sea water swimming pool.
Due to the steep stairs within the property, bookings with children are made at your own risk. It may also be unsuitable for those with limited mobility. There is low headroom on entry to the top floor.

Our perfect honeymoon cottage - comfortable, cosy, spotlessly clean throughout and with a view which is even more stunning than the pictures on the website promised. Brixham is a wonderful base for a holiday - friendly people and everything you could need close at hand. But a key part of its charm lies in its status as a working fishing port - this is no artificial picture postcard creation, this is the real thing. The town has many small independent shops and businesses, making a refreshing change from the identikit high streets so prevalent nowadays. We traveled without a car (by train to Paignton then local bus) and made good use of the frequent local buses to visit several places across the bay. Our favorite was Dartmouth - a lovely town with superb views across the Dart to Kingswear and lots of small shops and cafes to enjoy. Totnes and Babbacombe were also both well worth visiting. So many wonderful memories shared in a beautiful place.

We could not fault the cottage or location (5 star). Overall we would have no hesitation to recommend blue chip and the cottages they provide as a facilitator and we will be rebooking with blue chip in 2016.

This cottage has brilliant views from kitchen/diner, lounge and both bedrooms. It has been modernised to a very high standard and has everything you could need.Each room is spacious and very comfortable. As it is on four levels there are a lot of stairs and this could prove a problem to the elderly or unfit! Small children would also need to be watched carefully. I have stayed at several cottages in Brixham which have all been good but this one has to be the best. Highly recommended.
