    Great location, unforgettable views, really good facilities at High Hopes, directly adjacent to the harbour and all local facilities. Great walks along the coastal path. The parking permit included with the deal was really useful and saved a lot...

    The location could not have been any better. Right on the quayside above some lovely restaurants and bars with views over the harbour bowl. We arrived in the dark and the view of the lights around and in the harbour as you open the gate to enter...

A secret gem! Grade II listed sailors loft on one of the oldest streets in Brixham with a unique outdoor space and stunning harbour views. As you open the gate set into the old stone wall of one of the most characterful streets in Brixham, you step through into what feels like a secret garden and are immediately captivated by the outstanding views from the unique outdoor space. This wonderfully positioned property places you in the heart of the town with views of the inner harbour that stretch right round to the Breakwater and the colour washed cottages beyond. Stone steps lead you down to the entrance of this 2 bed property which is arranged over two levels. You will feel like you have your own box at the theatre as you look out and enjoy the sounds of Brixham Town Band playing under the Old Fish Market in summer evenings. High Hopes is pet friendly and is the perfect base for all 4 legged friends to explore the surrounding coastal paths and beaches.
