A ground floor holiday apartment overlooking the beautiful Fishcombe Cove and its uninterrupted sea views. Sandpiper 3 is the perfect coastal retreat, offering direct access to the South West Coast Path.

Lovely apartment with great view

It was most relaxing to sit and look out over the amazing views over Torbay from the comfortable living area.The grounds are well tended and there were pretty wild flowers and grasses. The property was well equipped with a good walk in shower. It was a perfect place for two, perhaps a little tight for two couples.
It took a little while to get used to the various codes for gates but it does mean the grounds are not open to the public making it a peaceful place for our visit. The walk to Brixham is15 minutes and there are many lovely places to explore nearby.

This was our second visit to the Cove and did not disappoint. The location is ideal for beachcombers, swimmers and paddle boarders and the town is in easy reach along a pleasant coastal path - no need to take a car and struggle to find parking. The cafe on the beach is a real boon and offers a surprising variety from such a small space. Swimming pool was clean and warm enough for the hardier members of our group. The environment around the apartments is well kept and beautifully maintained with wild flower planting. The apartment was clean and well equipped, but the bedrooms do lack storage space for clothes and cases, however this should not put you off. Some apartments have storage space at the rear, but not all. The view from the balcony was stunning and Brixham offers a variety of restaurants. We would particularly recommend one that is quite newly opened and set back from the harbour - the Smugglers hotel and restaurant on Church Hill. We look forward to returning.

Nice position good views but place tired and in need of some TLC
IE broken patio furniture, internal floor near patio needs attention, rusty close drier, poor reception on tv also could do with additional chanels. The lady that we had dealings with Carrie, was very helpful and attentive.

Lovely place in a great spot with wonderful views. Very comfortable, especially the bed. My only suggestion would be to have a larger TV and an induction hob. That said we would happily go back again.

The 'Cove' is located high above the little Fishcombe Bay giving a most fantastic view of the water,
Our apartment would benefit with some attention to the mattresses and bed coverings on the single beds and also some attention to the bathroom door lock that refused to open without some outside help , but over all we enjoyed our stay.

Both patio doors need to be looked at, lounge door very hard to close and lock.
Bedroom patio door also very stiff to slide.
Due to this problem we felt unable to have lounge patio door open while sitting in lounge.
Double bedroom door unable to close as hits the bed!!

The apartment is in such a great location and has wonderful views across Torbay, it's a very relaxing place to stay. The apartment has everything you need and is very comfortable and clean. When we arrived there was a welcome basket of tea, coffee and biscuits, a very nice touch. At the end of our stay we didn't want to leave.

Thank you for reviewing, I am sorry to hear that you thought you had booked a property by the harbour. We do have properties within the harbour bowl which you may have been looking at before booking. The style of furniture is shown in the photos on the website I am sorry to hear they were a little low for you. I hope you enjoyed your visit to Brixham.

Lovely location

This is a perfect location with wonderful views. Loved swimming in Fishcombe Cove and using the outdoor heated pool. Plenty of lovely local walks and Brixham is very close.

Site and position could not be bettered, beautiful frontline view of the sea. We had problems locking the door, talking to other visitor’s it seemed to be a common problem, we managed by using the other door. Well equipped and comfortable, loved the terrace with furniture. On the one occasion we had reason to ring the office we had a prompt reply.

Thank you for your review. The Cove is a lovely base in which to relax and enjoy your holiday whilst being close to the amenities Brixham town has to offer. I will get someone to loo k at the locks on the main door.
