Drake

About this property

Drake is an inviting apartment in Plymouth, Devon, enjoying a prime position close to Plymouth Hoe and historic Barbican, with open-plan living and parking permits available to arrange. Well suited to couples, solo travellers, or those visiting the city for work, this pet-friendly retreat lets you dip into Plymouth life before returning to your own space at the end of the day.

Make the open-plan living area the heart of your stay, preparing breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen before settling down at the dining table in the bay window to plot the day's route. After hours beside the water or exploring the city, return for an easy supper, then take your pick of the board games or switch on the Smart TV for an evening in. A shared balcony offers another spot to step outside, while the double bedroom has the benefit of its own en-suite walk-in shower. The sofa bed provides an additional sleeping option when required.

Step outside and discover Plymouth, with the iconic Plymouth Hoe nearby for waterfront strolls, before wandering towards the historic Barbican. For a change of scenery, venture to Dartmoor, where dramatic landscapes and walking routes await those keen to spend a day outdoors. Alternatively, cross into Cornwall and make for the waterside surroundings of nearby Saltash, creating another direction for your Devon itinerary. Back in Plymouth, the nearby beach provides the chance to swap city streets for time beside the sea, while local shops and a nearby pub keep everyday essentials within easy reach.

Whether your plans revolve around the waterfront, city discoveries, or journeys farther afield, make Drake your base in Plymouth. Note: This property can be booked with ref. 1213591, together sleeping up to 6 guests.

Surrounded by the rugged beauty of Dartmoor, the glorious countryside of the South Hams and the vibrant scenery of the South Devon coast, Plymouth offers the perfect mixture of maritime heritage and natural beauty in a vibrant city environment. Wander through the maze of narrow streets with their shops, restaurants and art galleries and down to the Barbican quayside, where the city's maritime history begins. Take a stroll up to the Hoe with its unsurpassed view across one of the world's finest natural harbours and where Francis Drake played bowls as the Armada sailed into view! Take a tour of the Plymouth Gin distillery, watch a show at the Theatre Royal or spend a fascinating few hours at the National Marine Aquarium. There are also boat trips around the Sound and Naval dockyards, watersports at the Mountbatten Centre and the city centre shopping mall to explore. The wild tors of Dartmoor, the beach resorts of Torbay, several stately homes and gardens and the splendid coastal scenery of South Cornwall can all be reached in under 45 minutes.
