welcome

Sailors Haunt is ideally situated in a level position alongside the inner harbour quayside in the heart of historic Brixham, a fishing village with a rich maritime history.

This quaint fisherman’s cottage dates from the early 1800’s and has been tastefully renovated and equipped to offer couples and small families everything necessary for the perfect self catering holiday retreat, sleeping up to four.

Your own private parking bay allows you to safely leave your car and explore the area on foot as the local beaches and attractions are all within easy walking distance.

There is plenty to keep children entertained, the replica of the Golden Hind moored in the harbour, several safe beaches as well as a seawater swimming pool, which is refilled daily with each high tide and the perfect place to explore rock pools.

The harbour itself offers the excitement of a working fishing port and is also the place to book your seat on a boat trip across Torbay or to neighbouring Dartmouth.  Or you can stroll around the maze of narrow streets to see the quaint colourful cottages and get a birds eye view the harbour, marina and bay.

A walk up to Berry Head is rewarded with stunning views and amazing walks.  You can also join the South Devon Coastal Path or wander around the Napoleonic Fort at the Berry Head Country Park National Nature Reserve.

In the evening, Brixham’s harbour is lit with coloured lights, whose reflections dance across the water.  The many bars and restaurants come to life, offering a wide range of dishes including the day’s catch of fish and shell food.

Other attractions nearby include: at Churston - an 18 hole Golf Course, Go-Kart Track and the Railway Station, where you can catch the Steam Train to Kingswear; at Paignton - a Water Park and Zoo; at Babbacombe - a Model Village and Cliff Railway to the beach.  The area also boasts a wealth of National Trust properties including the newly opened Greenway House, the former holiday home of Dame Agatha Christie.

The area is full of charm and packed with attractions and activities for people of all ages.  Your only problem will be deciding what to do first.
