Description

Osprey 1 is nestled at the far end of the front row of this very popular & peaceful development close to Brixham Harbour. It was designed by the scheme architect for his own use, so features a few unique touches not found in other Cove properties. These include a large walk-in shower (no bathtub to climb over) a bigger more spacious floor area overall, American-style shutters on most windows, and naturally one of the best locations in the whole development. Being a ground-floor apartment with a walk-in shower also makes it more accessible for guests with mobility issues.

The Cove comprises 38 apartments sympathetically designed to blend in with the National Trust woodlands to the right. The South West Coastal Path runs behind the development. The Cove is a private gated development with an on-site open-air heated swimming pool and direct private access to the pebble beach at Fishcombe Cove below. Every property has its own dedicated numbered parking space.

This beautifully furnished and decorated apartment features a large terrace with outside dining furniture for those wonderful alfresco meals spent taking in the sparkling blues and greens of Torbay. The ever-changing vista of little sailboats, modern fishing trawlers, passenger ferries to Torquay, majestic gaff-rigged heritage vessels, canoes, and kayaks will keep you thoroughly enchanted during your stay. Don't forget to watch out for Sammy the harbour seal and the occasional pod of dolphins too. The on-site heated swimming pool will surely be a hit with the children. Brixham harbour with its many shops, cafes restaurants, and bars is a 15-minute walk through Battery Gardens. Hourly bus service to Brixham stops just outside the entrance.

In the months of May through to November why not attend one of the many events and festivals in the area like the Brixham Pirate Festival, England's Seafood Feast, Lanterns lights & 'luminations, Dartmouth Music Festival, Dartmouth Royal Regatta, Dartmouth Food Festival, Torbay Air Show, Teignmouth Air show, Devon County Show.

The accommodation briefly comprises a large open plan lounge/diner/kitchen with full height and width patio doors, 2 x 2 seater sofas, dining table & 4 chairs, and a bright modern kitchen with every luxury including dishwasher, clothes washer/dryer, and espresso machine. The fully tiled bathroom has a large step-in shower and high-quality sanitary ware. The master bedroom features a luxury double bed, built-in wardrobe, TV, and sliding patio doors with direct access to the terrace and American-style shutters. The twin bedroom features 2 comfortable single beds, built-in wardrobes, a TV, and American-style shutters on the windows.

Being at the end of the front row, Osprey 1 enjoys even more privacy than most apartments here, as there will be virtually no one walking past to interrupt the tranquilities.

A dedicated onsite parking space is included as is wi-fi, access to the shared onsite swimming pool (May to September), quality bed linen & towels, and all utilities.

Further details:

  • Stunning coastal views from a large terrace with a dining table & chairs

Reviews

Excellent apartment with a fantastic location. We stayed as a family with 2 kids, 13 and 8 and whilst we did find the actual apartment a little small at times, the external facilities made up for this. The walks to Fishcombe cove and Churstone Cove were pretty easy and the views once there were magical, esp early in the morning before they got busy. There is a cafe at Fishcombe cove which is really handy but be warned that they do play loud music at night which was a little annoying at times, as does the holiday park bar behind the property. The swimming pool was a big bonus, with heated water, it was really handy on cooler winder days when we couldn't go to the beach. All in all, a great apartment in a wonderful location. We will def consider returning.

Mr B,

Perfect holiday home! Well maintained site, beautiful location. We didn't want to leave.

Miss D,

Great apartment, well equipped with stunning sea views. It’s a great location to walk into Brixham 10-15 mins with kids in tow. Fishcombe bay is perfect for paddle boarding and seal spotting. The bonus of the pool with a highlight.

Mrs J,

The property was in a great location with easy access to the nearby coves and a 10-15 minute walk to Brixham. However considering the cost of a weeks rental I would have expected a better interior, especially the main bedroom which relied on slatted blinds rather than black out curtains which due to the location meant that the sun was shining into and lighting up the room at the crack of dawn. Having stayed in various properties along the Devon/Cornish south coast I think that there are better properties out there for the same or even lower price and which provide better facilities.

Mr L,

Second stay at Osprey 1 and we will be back! We’ve done 4 different apartments in the cove and this is our favourite. Location is great, view is great and property is well equipped!

Mrs N,

A perfectly situated property in a beautiful location. The view is amazing. It could have been the Mediterranean! We had an excellent week walking local routes and enjoying the perfect weather. A comfortable and good sized property with a very private feel despite being on a site as it is an end property. Original Cottages fixed the defective smoke alarm very quickly, thank you.

Mr B,

Lovely location and great views. Swimming pool a bonus

Mrs C,

Great location, the views over the sea were amazing and was very peaceful. The cottage itself was a high standard of comfort. The Original Cottage team were kind and extremely helpful to me with the booking process.

Ms S,
