Churston Cove

An unknown jewel of Brixham, situated amidst green hills and cliffs, the Churchston Cove is one of the most family-friendly beaches that you should visit while holidaying in Brixham. Just a short distance from the Brixham holiday cottages, a sand and shingle beach cove is a wonderful spot to enjoy a relaxing and peaceful day.
Step out of the holiday cottages and have a picnic day with your family in this dog-friendly beach. Just bring your own refreshments to relieve you of hunger and thirst after so much swimming or playing beach volleyball. It has a wide car park area and is protected from the wind by the picturesque hills and cliffs.
If you do not have your own car, you can take any of the available transport systems in Brixham. Watch your children build sandcastles or play with other children while you go sunbathing or read a good book. If you want more adventure, you can walk down the path that will lead to a small yet charming cove. Take some pictures and enjoy the view before settling at the luxurious Brixham holiday cottages.


Breakwater Beach
Another great beach that you can enjoy while staying at the Brixham holiday cottages is the Breakwater beach. Unwind by the sea amidst the pretty harbour, rockpools, and clean surroundings. Leave the holiday cottages early in the morning and enjoy the sun, sea, and sand. Even if you don’t bring your own food, there are cafes nearby that will satisfy your appetite.
