Brunel Boathouse is on the doorstep of history itself with Isambard Kingdom Brunel's Royal Albert Bridge. A remarkable railway bridge spanning the River Tamar between Plymouth, Devon, and Saltash, Cornwall. Designed by the renowned engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, this iconic structure features two 455-foot (138.7 m) lenticular iron trusses soaring 100 feet (30.5 m) above the water. The bridge also includes conventional plate-girder approach spans, resulting in a total length of 2,187.5 feet (666.8 m) The Royal Albert Bridge has been a sightseeing attraction since its completion in 1859 and has appeared in various artworks, photographs, and even on the UK £2 coin. Also nearby is a granite memorial stone that is positioned in the gardens, there are two identical signs and an interpretation panel on site to commemorate the embarkation of US soldiers of the V and VII Corps for the D-Day landings of World War II.
Around the corner from the property is a bus stop for a trip into the centre of Plymouth, plus local taxis service available. The waterfront city of Plymouth is set in one of the finest locations in the country, it stands right on the border between Devon and Cornwall overlooking the spectacular waters of Plymouth Sound to the south, while the remote beauty of Dartmoor National Park nudges its margins to the north. Both Devon and Cornwall have long been cherished as holiday destinations with fabulous beaches, stunning unspoilt countryside, historic town and many more famous attractions such as the Eden Project. Plymouth city centre has a pedestrianised shopping centre with its undercover shopping centre. It has a large modern multi-screen cinema complex and the well known Theatre Royal which regularly plays host to The Birmingham Royal Ballet in addition to the musicals, plays, comedies and operas that are staged throughout the year. In contrast, The Barbican offers a more cosmopolitan atmosphere being Plymouth city’s oldest quarter. The area overlooks a pretty harbour and includes a variety of small independent shops, a number of wine bars, restaurants and cafes with open air seating.
