Holiday Cottages in Brixham
Where in the UK are you going to find the world’s biggest gathering of pirates or a festival devoted entirely to crabs? If you fancy your timbers shivered or want to get to grips with some the best seafood in the UK, then check out our range of Brixham cottages for your next holiday. There are plenty of family attractions too, such as the Neolithic subterranean spectacular of Kent’s Cavern or the scaled-down delights of Babbacombe Model Village.
You’ll find our range of cottages located slap-bang in the heart of the English Riviera. If you’re looking for a beach holiday with spectacular sands and clear waters, Brixham is the place to be. With a picturesque harbour and excellent fishing opportunities, Brixham also benefits from a particularly warm climate, making it a welcoming holiday destination at any time of year.
What can I do on my holiday in Brixham?
A better question would be ‘what can’t I do?’! Our extensive selection of holiday cottages in Brixham will put you in touch with a host of things to see and do. A visit to the replica of the Golden Hind is a must and ideal for families. Venture over the border into Cornwall and up onto Bodmin Moor, and you can explore the imposing Bodmin Gaol, which is over 300 years old. If the sight of shackles and cells gets a bit too much, you can refresh yourself in the onsite tea-room.
Back in Devon, Berry Pomeroy Castle is just what you want from an ancient ruin - crumbling, inspiring and alleged to be one of the most haunted castles in Britain. However, if you’d prefer something less ghoulish, a trip on the Kingswear Paddle Steamer will show you the splendour of the English Riviera, from the water – and not a ghost in sight!
Being so close to the sea, fish is a popular choice for eating out, and you’ll find it on the menu in chippies and fine-dining restaurants in the area. However, if fish isn’t your thing then the local farms supply eateries in the area with some of the best and freshest produce in the land.
With a range of holiday cottages in Brixham available in a range of shapes and sizes, you’re sure to find the holiday headquarters that suits your needs.
