The Area Brixham Harbour boasts one of the largest fishing fleets in the UK. The harbour is at the heart of Brixham, surrounded by restaurants, pubs and shops and of course home to the Golden Hind replica. Over 100 fishing boats land and sell their catch at the local fish market on the quayside. A visitor viewing platform is strategically placed so visitors can watch the busy comings and goings of the fishing fleet, made up of large beam trawlers and the smaller day boats. Some of the smaller day boats can actually been seen working at various vantage points around Tor Bay e.g. Berry Head, Fishcombe Cove and Hopes Nose. The harbour is also the centre of most of the many events and festivals that take place in Brixham throughout the year, such as the Pirates Festival, Brixfest and Fishstock. Approached from the sea the view of Brixham with its many colourful houses cascading down on either side of the harbour is one of the prettiest along the South Devon coast. Brixham personifies the classic English fishing port, mixing tradition with a modern vibrant industry. The harbour is also home to a fleet of heritage trawlers, all lovingly restored by passionate enthusiasts and now offering chartered voyages. It has a focal tourist attraction in the replica of Sir Francis Drake’s ship Golden Hind that is permanently moored there.More

Exceptional apartment in Brixham
I booked a 5 night break as a birthday surprise for my husband. Ian couldn’t have been more helpful in providing information about the location, eateries, things to do and how to make the holiday special for us both. The apartment was exactly as described and the excellent reviews I’d read were spot on. Ian and Liz greeted us on arrival and were easy to contact should we need them. The accommodation provided everything you could possibly need when away from home and most of the kitchen cupboard and cleaning items I took were not needed. We arrived to gorgeous edible treats and they’d also remembered my husband’s birthday. We even won £5 on the lottery ticket they left for us! The bedroom was instantly welcoming with Brixham harbour and the Golden Hind Museum Ship literally feet away. The bell on the ship could be heard throughout the day as the water in the harbour gently swayed and we loved to spend time just looking out of the windows, people watching, looking out to sea and being entertained by the locals. We’d had several restaurants recommended to us and visited a couple and also enjoyed fish and chips back at the apartment. There is a comprehensive guide/information booklet in the apartment but please ask Ian in advance for recommendations. We booked restaurants prior to arrival which is advisable especially in August. We’d decided to have a relaxing few days and enjoyed a ‘good walk’ every day. We loved the walk to Berry Head (and beyond) and more than once set off at 6am as the temperatures were soaring in August 2022! We loved exploring the town too and found a great place for breakfast and also ventured up and down the side streets and walkways. We only moved our car once in 5 days, we were more than content to stay in the heart of Brixham, at the edge of the water, amongst the locals (and the seagulls) and enjoy every minute the English Riviera had to offer. This was definitely a memorable holiday with immaculate accommodation in a vibrant and interesting location. We’d love to return one day. Please visit the One Fisherman’s Loft website and read the emails that you’ll receive. They are packed with useful and relevant information which will save you time on arrival and ensure you make the most of every minute in Brixham.

Great views, amazing hosts, perfect apartment close to all amenities.
Fantastic hosts. Ian met us at the door and helped us unload the car. He gave us a quick but informative introduction to the property, local area and beyond. He escorted us to the allocated parking space and on the return walk pointed out landmarks, pubs and other attractions. On top of this there were numerous extras such as ample tea, coffee, biscuits and milk but also scones with cream and jam, wine, crisps and confectionery. Fantastic views, well equipped apartment in the heart of the harbour area with a variety of shops and eating places within 3 minutes walk. We certainly recommend a stay here and will return at a later date.

Fabulous apartment in the heart of Brixham
This was our 3rd visit to Ian and Liz's apartment. It has everything you will need in here you need for a visit, beautifully decorated and little treats on arrival. It overlooks the bustling harbour with everything on your doorstep, lots of fabulous restaurants and shops and beautiful walks on the South West coastal paths. This will not be our last visit, we will most definitely be returning for plenty more breaks here.

Perfection
A second visit to beautiful Brixham, and such a fabulous apartment. The weather was amazing, and we didn’t need to take the car out much at all. Beautiful walks, great entertainment in the old fish market (which we could hear and see from the apartment!). This time we also made friends with the locals. They’re very friendly. We even got invited to dinner one night. Such a great place, great holiday, great hosts. I’m trying to persuade my husband to move there.....

A 10 Night Stay in the Brilliant Brixham!
We have stayed a in a lot of places around the UK in the last couple of years, from Scotland to Cornwall and loads in between so Devon seemed like a logical location for our next holiday. We booked One Fishermans loft and could not have been happier with our decision. To wake up everyday with the view of Brixham harbour every day was magical and the attention to detail Ian and Liz put into their property and service to guests was faultless and we would have no hesitation in recommending it to family and friends. Not only this but I have no doubt that we will be back ourselves sometime soon. The whole experience was perfect.

Exceptional location and wonderful hosts
Myself and my wife visited for Easter. Ian and Liz were exceptional hosts. The accommodation location was super for exporting the town and coast. Lots of wonderful places to eat and drink especially gluten free options. Would highly recommend!

About the neighborhood
There are many things to do and places to visit on your holiday in and around Brixham, here are some suggestions. The Golden Hind The Golden Hind at Brixham is a full sized replica of one of the most iconic ships from the age of exploration. The Ship has been a feature of picturesque Brixham harbour for over fifty years, entertaining and educating thousands of visitors during this time – as well as being featured on many tv programmes and films. The Ship is open come rain or shine and is an all-weather attraction with many indoor displays as well as wide open decks. Berry Head Nature Reserve There is nothing better than a walk up to Berry Head. The views are stunning and a walk around the ancient forts followed by a visit to the Guardhouse cafe or Berry Head hotel is a wonderful way to spend a few hours. Paignton Zoo With over 2,000 animals across 80 acres – you’re in for a really wild time at Paignton Zoo. Living Coasts Living Coasts is an all weather attraction, located on Torquay seafront, where there’s plenty to see and do: mingle with the playful penguins, get up close to the otters, octopus and seals, and much more. Visit Penguin Beach to walk with the African and macaroni penguins and catch the entertaining feeding time talks. Shoalstone Pool Brixham Shoalstone Pool is an outdoor 53 metre sea water swimming Pool situated in a stunning position on Brixham sea front. The Pool is one of only a few left in the country. It is built into a natural rock pool that in Victorian times was popular for bathing. Entrance is free of charge! Kents Cavern Prehistoric Caves Kents Cavern is one of the most important Stone Age cave sites in Europe, making it Britain’s premier prehistoric cave. For thousands of years the cave was home to ancient humans, sheltering from extreme weather, making fires, shaping stone tools and hunting wild Ice Age predators. You will be taken back to these ancient times as you walk through the extensive labyrinth of caverns surrounded by spectacular stalactite and stalagmite formations. Splashdown at Quaywest Splashdown Waterpark at Quaywest, is a great day out for family and friends. There is something for everyone to enjoy – from big kids to little ones – with some of the UK’s most exciting flume rides and some of the English Riviera’s most spectacular views, it is located right next to Goodrington Beach. For thrill seekers there is the heart stopping plummet the Devil’s Drop and terrifically tumbling tyre rides, that’ll have you hanging onto the edge of your tyre, literally, and the Wild Kamikaze – well the name says it all! If that sounds a bit too much like hard work then a quick dip in the swimming pool and a laze on a sun-bed might be more to your liking then you can do that too, with views over South Devon’s beautiful Tor Bay. Younger kids can get in the swim too with Submarine Splash and Tiddler’s Fun Pool – a perfect place for little ones to enjoy a good old splash about. Want more than the waterpark? Goodrington Sands, a stone’s throw from the door and a great place to visit, sand to play on and rockpools to discover at low tide and loads more.
Getting around
Getting around the English Riviera could not be simpler with Stagecoach South West offering an excellent service. Running every 12 minutes, the Hop 12 links Brixham to Paignton, Torquay and Newton Abbot. To ensure you get to experience all the English Riviera has to offer during your stay in Brixham, the DayRider ticket allows you to hop on, hop off throughout the day. From Easter through to the end of September, regular ferry services run between Brixham and Torquay offering a beautiful, scenic way to travel across the bay taking in the great landscapes.
