Central harbour location, super apartment.

A well equipped apartment in great location for the harbour, walks and shops, including some interesting independent shops. Third floor location meant great views. Great support, when needed, from the owners. Lovely welcome gift. Thank you. Recommend using the weekly parking permit, and using the Freshwater Quarry Car Park, and strolling back along the harbour to the apartment. Recommended.

We really enjoyed staying in this apartment, which was a stone's throw from all the attractions of Brixham harbour. Beautiful coastal walks, sea swimming and crabbing were our favourite pastimes. The apartment was clean and well appointed and provided everything we needed for a relaxing stay.

We stayed last year and had a lovely time, so wanted to visit Brixham again. Captain's Rest was the perfect base last year and it was the same again this year. The apartment is perfectly placed to explore the town. It is well equipped and very welcoming. It made it a very happy holiday. Thank you.
