Description

Welcome to Hope Cottage, an enchanting 1850s fisherman's retreat nestled in the heart of Brixham's exclusive harbour bowl, mere moments from the water’s edge. This lovingly restored gem exudes timeless charm, providing a perfect blend of historic elegance and modern comfort. With two beautifully appointed living rooms, it's an idyllic sanctuary to unwind after a day spent exploring the picturesque town and its stunning coastline. Outside, an inviting courtyard offers an intimate setting for alfresco dining, perfect for cosy evenings. Accommodating up to 6 guests (with a maximum of 4 adults), Hope Cottage is perfectly situated to immerse yourself in the vibrancy of central Brixham.

As you step through the charming stable door, a hallmark of Brixham’s architectural heritage, you are greeted by a welcoming living space. The first of two lounges invites you to sink into plush seating by the glow of a crackling log burner, the ideal spot for a glass of wine and relaxed conversation. Adjacent to this is a second lounge, thoughtfully designed with ample seating for up to six guests, a flat-screen TV, and a delightful dining nook set in a characterful alcove, perfect for intimate gatherings around the table.

The galley kitchen, equipped with high-end appliances and all the essentials for culinary creativity, offers the perfect opportunity to savour fresh, local ingredients. Afterward, step out into the serene courtyard garden, accessed through the kitchen, and enjoy an after-dinner drink under the stars.

Upstairs, the first floor features two exquisitely restored bedrooms, each thoughtfully enhanced with bespoke window shutters and lovingly preserved original wood flooring. The upper level unveils a newly updated bathroom with contemporary finishes and a charming third bedroom with twin beds, offering a peaceful retreat. For added luxury, new carpets were laid throughout the stairs and landing in 2022, ensuring ultimate comfort at every step.

Hope Cottage offers a truly elevated coastal escape, where history, comfort, and indulgence come together to create an unforgettable stay.

Location

Famous for fishing, art and those colourful houses lining the harbour, Brixham is one of the busiest fishing ports in the UK and is home to some of the finest sea food you can think of, but it isn’t just about fishing. Brixham is also rife with art and culture and has several unique attractions suitable for the whole family.

Brixham is a great destination for art lovers, the town has a great range of art galleries that feature local artists as well as showcasing visiting installations. On the Strand, you’ll even have the opportunity to see artists working.

The town also boasts a museum and tours around the coast so you can get a real taste of its maritime heritage. Brixham is the home of the Golden Hind replica, a recreation of Sir Francis Drake’s flagship. Visitors can experience life on board and explore all five decks, it’s a great exhibition for kids learning about the Tudors or for adults who want to find out a bit more about the UK’s history.

Being a fishing port, you can expect a great choice of seafood restaurants with many independent, local establishments offering menus made from fresh local produce. It isn’t all fish though, Brixham’s restaurants and cafes are also supplied by an excellent selection of butchers and green grocers. You’ll be spoilt for choice!

For walkers, The South West Coast Path will take you as far as your legs will carry you, and entertaining the little ones couldn’t be easier with Paignton Zoo, The Dartmouth Steam Railway and Splashdown @ Quay West all within a short drive.
