High Hopes

A Warm Welcome and Unique Features

Step through the stone wall gate into a secret garden, where the terraced courtyard offers breathtaking views of the inner harbour, the Breakwater, and the pastel-coloured cottages beyond. This historic Grade II listed property, dating back to the late 1800s, boasts timeless charm with its unique aged features. The terrace, accessed via steep steps*, rewards you with a tranquil and private outdoor space—perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine while taking in the serene surroundings.

Inside, High Hopes is arranged over two levels and offers:

• An open-plan lounge and kitchen/diner with a bay window framing spectacular harbour views, including the iconic Golden Hind.
• Two cosy bedrooms designed for restful nights after days of seaside adventures.
• A dog-friendly policy so your four-legged family members can join in the fun.

Immerse Yourself in the Magic of Brixham

The central location means you’re just a short walk from the harbour, bustling cafes, and artisan shops that make Brixham so special. From your window or terrace, soak in the lively sights and sounds of the town, including:

• Summer Evening Concerts: Listen to Brixham Town Band play under the Old Fish Market.
• Pirate Festival: Feel the excitement of pirate skirmishes aboard the Golden Hind.
• Lanterns, Lights & ‘Luminations: Enjoy fireworks and festive illuminations from the comfort of your own garden or lounge.

For explorers, the South West Coast Path leads to the stunning Berry Head National Nature Reserve, and ferry boats whisk you across the bay to Torquay.
