The Hoe is an historic scenic viewpoint and park which regularly hosts music, leisure and military events. Plymouth is a vibrant waterside city, benefiting from major investment with plenty to entertain everyone from arts and crafts, to stylish cafes, bars and restaurants, quaint tea rooms and traditional fish and chips. High end shops and unique boutiques are found within both the main city shopping area and the Drake Circus shopping mall.There is also a wealth of heritage and history to explore - stand where Sir Francis Drake played bowls as the Spanish Armada approached, enjoy a tour at the historic Plymouth Gin distillery, or maybe visit the close by Barbican where you can explore the cobbled streets with individual specialty shops, craft workshops and art galleries. Also nearby, is the National Marine Aquarium - now the largest aquarium in Great Britain with the deepest tank in Europe.

Stopped at Drakes View for 4 nights and wished we could have stayed longer. The owner greeted us at the apartment to hand over the key and show us around. Complimentary tea/ coffee and some gorgeous biscuits were left for us too. The view over the Hoe and out to the sea was amazing. The apartment had everything we needed including a washer dryer, literally home from home. Can't wait until next year so we can book again.

We've had a wonderful stay in Plymouth. The flat and its location exceeded our expectations! Thanks.

Really enjoyed our stay here, the views are fantastic, watching naval ships come in is brill. One thing I must say is the photos online do not give the apartment justice. We both said we haven't enjoyed a break as much as this one. Many thanks.
