Balcony with outdoor furniture. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking.. A delightful property set within walking distance of Brixham town centre and the harbour. Situated in an elevated position in a quiet residential area of Brixham, with panoramic views of the town with its many brightly coloured cottages. Contemporary in design and tastefully decorated and furnished throughout, it is set over three levels, with the kitchen/dining room on the lower ground floor. The south-facing living room, on the ground floor, opens onto a lovely balcony with table and chairs, which overlooks the enclosed garden. Brixham is a lovely seaside town and is still one of the busiest working fishing harbours in the area. The harbour is full of little fishing boats and trawlers and some of the best fish and chips can be enjoyed here. The town offers all the usual tourist shops along with many restaurants and coffee shops, and has a regular bus service which will be able to take you into Goodrington, Paignton and Torquay without having to use your car. There is so much here for all the family to enjoy, including the water park at Goodrington, Paignton Zoo and living coast at Torquay. There are also many other quieter days out such as Greenway Mansion, the home of Agatha Christie, or taking the steam train trip up to Buckfastleigh and visit the otter and butterfly sanctuary. Car and passenger ferry from Kingswear to Dartmouth 1 mile. Totnes 8 miles. Shops ¼ mile, pub 200 yards.

Great location, as others have mentioned to get to Harbour & shops it is pretty steep down steps.

Great location, as others have mentioned to get to Harbour & shops it is pretty steep down steps...although very doable and good exercise. The house is very comfortable, great sunny balcony and garden. Very cosy, comfortable feeling as soon as you walk in. Perfect car parking space ideal for one large car. Very well equipped kitchen. Great size rooms Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Lovely 4 bedroomed property Set Over 3 floors.

Lovely 4 bedroomed property Set Over 3 floors. Large lower floor with kitchen diner leading out onto the garden. Garden is small but ample space to sit out and enjoy the stunning views over Brixham. Short walk to the harbour and amenities. There is a steep walk back but we enjoy walking so not an issue. Parking for 3 cars - 2 on the drive and one across. Access via car is very narrow and winding but we did get used to it. 2 well equipped bathrooms. Overall a lovely family holiday home. Recommended.

Nice cottage but it's on a very steep hill.

Nice cottage but it's on a very steep hill. And I do mean steep. The garden is tiny and is not what is advertised on the booking site. Not suitable for elderly people or those with ability issues.

We were a group of eight, four kids and four adults.

We were a group of eight, four kids and four adults. The photos online of the cottage don't do it justice! It's a beautiful house, clean, warm and welcoming with amazing bathrooms and a lovely sized kitchen. We were slightly concerned about the amount of rubbish left outside when we arrived, we even needed to re- bag it as it ended up all over the garden and driveway - possibly this could be avoided if clearer signage is up stating bins must go out for Thursday, as I think the last people to stay there just dumped everything outside when they left on the Saturday. However, this didn't spoil our experience and we found the property well located for various days out and trips down to Brixham Harbour. There was lots to do, even when the weather was bad. We wouldn't hesitate in booking again, we had an amazing holiday!

A very pleasant holiday home handily placed for Brixham centre although it does involve fairly steep gradients to return to the house if you walk down into town but all in all a pleasant place to stay and I would certainly recommend Brixham as a good place to visit if you like the seaside

Samphire Cottage was lovely and I cannot recommend it enough.

Samphire Cottage was lovely and I cannot recommend it enough. However, the parking is very hit and miss around the cottage especially if you have 2 cars. It is a lottery as to whether you can actually park outside the house. The are is steep! Be warned if you're not used to walking up hills then you're in for a surprise when you get there. The roads are very narrow and the locals take no prisoners when driving around, so please be careful when driving around. Fish and chips in Brixham are absolutely gorgeous, especially from Nicks Chips on the harbour.
