Description

Sail Away is a beautiful, modern and spacious house located in Brixham, on the Furzeham Green side and sleeps up to seven guests. The house enjoys elevated, sweeping views over Torbay, with the parkland of Furzeham Green in the foreground. Sail Away is in an ideal location to explore Brixham on foot. The busy, historic harbour, restaurants and bars are all within a 5 minute walk down the steps. Due to the elevated position of the property it offers guests somewhere quiet away from the main town when it is time to wind down. Take a leisurely walk back up the steps and enjoy the gorgeous sea views with a glass of wine from the patio terrace. Opposite the property is Furzeham Green, this park is dog friendly all year round and has absolutely stunning views of the bay and the breakwater. It is a beautiful sight to behold when the cruise ships anchor in front of Torbay. Fishcombe Cove is less than ten minutes walk away with its award winning cafe and dog friendly beach.

Reviews

We were delighted with the location and high quality of furniture and fittings. Would certainly recommend.

Mr R,

Fantastic Christmas week at Sail Away. The house had been beautifully decorated. Really well equipped with everything we needed and great location with such easy access to Battery Gardens and the coastal path. We’ve stayed in multiple holiday lets in Brixham over the years and this definitely is one of the best.

Mrs M,

A very comfortable well equipped property.

Mrs D,

We couldn’t fault this property or the location. The owners had considered everything, and the kitchen cupboards were stocked with every plate, cup, glass, and utensil you could possibly need, and as a group of 6 we really appreciated the dishwasher. It was spotlessly clean, and the house was tastefully decorated with an appropriate nautical theme, with wonderful attention to detail, and felt newly done. It seemed very spacious for the six of us that stayed there. Having a garage to park our car in was a bonus, as was the terrace area where we sat and watched the sunsets over the harbour, and the dog walkers in the park next door. The views from the two back bedrooms are stunning. It was a short walk downhill to Brixham harbour and the town, and although it was a relatively steep walk back, there is a bus stop right outside the property. The bus routes from the town are very good and make it easy to get to Torquay, Paignton, Newton Abbot and Exeter for days out. We stayed there as a family of three generations (aged 16 to 77) and all of us agreed it was perfect and the owners had clearly made their guests’ comfort and convenience a priority. We highly recommend Sail Away (and Brixham) as a holiday destination.

Mrs W,

Access to harbour or local coves no good for people with mobility problems. Too hilly and too many steps. Otherwise very well equipped.

Mr T,

We had 2 kids and 4 adults at Sail Away. We all agreed the property was clean, comfortable and well equipped with plenty of space. The view from the front is stunning.

Mr R,

As a family of 5 we had an amazing week at Sail Away., There is so much to do locally as well as a short walk or drive away, from the free open air swimming pool, bars, restaurants ,boat trips and beaches. There was more than enough room for us all and there was more than enough equipment. You really don't need to bring anything but toiletries and beach towels. Having a shower room as well as a bathroom was great with taking 3 teenagers on holiday! Beds were comfy and everyone slept well. There was even a towel for the dog. There are buckets and spades, deck chairs, umbrellas and games/books for rainy days. The location was perfect, being outside of the harbour meant it was nice and peaceful but only a short walk down to the shops, beach and harbour. Although be aware , there are lots of steps down into the town! Local beaches are pebbles although that dint bother any of us, although I would say maybe invest in some beach shoes if you are planning on visiting the local coves and Blackpool Sands. There is a sandy beach at Broadsands Beach. I would definately recommends to friends and family and come back again

Mrs Y,

A very comfortable house. Everything you need and beautiful views over Torbay. Only downside a steep walk back up from but the views are great. . Would certainly return.

Mr H,

Stayed at Sail Away for a week at the beginning of July really great location with a lovely park opposite, perfect for the dog, gorgeous sea views and short walk to the harbour with two fantastic pubs for pitstops on the walk back up the hill, the Queens Arms and the Manor. Sail Away was immaculate, super clean, lots of space and really comfortable, really well equipped kitchen, bathrooms very modern with good showers, perfect patio area with table and chairs to enjoy the sunshine and views of the sea, stunning sea view from lounge and bedrooms. Having the garage was a real bonus we have stayed in some lovely cottages in Brixham but parking is usually a challenge Sail Away took the stress away so we could pop out in the car on day trips knowing the garage was there when we got back! Highly recommend Sail Away and will be booking again for next year. Also I left an item in the house when we left and Original Cottages were really helpful in sending this back to me really quickly, I was impressed by this service.

Mrs C,

Beautiful sea views, very well equipped and so clean. We had a lovely stay here.

Mrs S,

Mr P,
