Harbour View Fisherman’s Cottage, great location - with Parking

Wake up to sweeping harbour views and the gentle sounds of fishing boats from this charming fisherman’s cottage, perfectly positioned just moments from the water. Tucked away in a quiet passage yet only a 1-minute stroll to Brixham Harbour, Tradewinds offers a rare combination of peaceful seclusion and central convenience.

This characterful cottage is full of charm, featuring exposed beams, stone walls and nautical touches that reflect its coastal heritage. Both bedrooms enjoy beautiful harbour and sea views, creating a memorable setting for your stay.

Step outside to two private patio areas—ideal for morning coffee or relaxing after a day exploring the coast. Everything is within easy walking distance, including the waterfront, cafés, restaurants, shops and ferry connections to Dartmouth, Torquay and Paignton.

Guests also benefit from a private parking space on Southern Quay (across the harbour), with additional parking options available nearby if required.

Tradewinds is an ideal base for couples, families or walkers looking to enjoy the English Riviera from a central yet peaceful setting.

Perfect holiday stay

Trade wind is right in the harbour with shops and restaurants also on the doorstep. It was a perfect place to unwind. It is a quaint fishing cottage with a nautical theme and lots of original features. There’s a lovely cosy atmosphere. The views from the main bedroom are amazing. We felt right at home here and would love to return.

Excellent location, fantastic cottage and wonderful welcome!

We have stayed at many VRBOs over the years and this is definitely one of our top ones. The cottage has a great location for accessing everything Brixham has to offer. The cottage is tastefully and beautifully decorated and has everything you need for a relaxed holiday. Add to this the warm welcome we received from the hosts with homemade scones, jam and cream and you have the makings of a perfect holiday.

Lovely quirky cottage

Had a lovely week in Brixham in this beautiful and very quirky cottage, loved how it was set out. Thank you for the lovely cream tea on arrival, was most welcome. Although Brixham was extremely busy we had a good time and the views were breath taking.

We had a wonderful stay. It's a beautifully presented cottage. The best we've ever rented in Brixham The kitchen is well equipped for 4 & more. The twin & double rooms have very comfortable pillows and mattresses. The free internet is good. Staircases from the kitchen upto the 3 other floors are fairly steeper but typical of these cottages. However the bannisters and handrails make the process easier. Many thanks to Jo & Lee for a wonderful stay.

While the steps inside and out might be a challenge, the cottage was worth it in my opinion. Charming and well-equipped, Trade Winds is right in the heart of the port and close to buses, shops, and restaurants. It was a pleasure to stay here.

Trade Winds

The property was set near to the harbour and close to road and car parks (also Rock Fish). Very enjoyable stay, and Brixham is a nicely chilled resort. Weather a bit changeable and more like late Spring than early Summer. Only downside was the conflicting stories of whether the tap water in the area had been flushed out of its germ which was giving people in the locality s & d, and whether the harbour area was 'clear'. Assurances that it was by hosts and some of the restaurants, but then an area near the harbour was still giving out bottled water to the public and officials of SW water were waffling. But that and 1 day of heavy rain were the only drawbacks. Certainly want to come back another time, could be a regular thing.

Quaint Brixham Cottage

Loved our week at Trade Winds. The cottage was immaculately clean and had everything you could possibly need. Superb views from the top floor bedroom window of Brixham harbour, even binoculars are provided. Good directions from the owners on how to get to the cottage and good advice to pre-book 8 day Torbay council parking permit which we were able to use in Brixham/Paignton/Torquay. We hope to stay again in the future. Thank you Tradewinds.

Lovely house

Trade Winds is a lovely 4 storey house. The stairs are narrow and steep but there are hand rails on both sides that make the climb safe and easy. Very nicely decorated. Beds are very comfortable and lovely bed linen, duvets and pillows. Views from the bedroom windows are great. Location is perfect - 2 mins walk to the harbour, shops, restaurants and bars. Seagulls are a bit noisy but that is what you get by the sea and harbour! Welcome pack of scones, jam, cream and milk is thoughtful, thank you. We had a wonderful stay in Brixham and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property.
