Harbourside Cottage

About this property

Plymouth 1.8 miles. Resting in a prime position, overlooking the stunning Royal William Yard Marina in Plymouth, Devon is Harbourside Cottage, a delightful, three-bedroom home. Just paces away from the city's amenities and attractions, Harbourside Cottage offers a well-equipped base for a group of five, looking for a tranquil seascape. Benefit from off-road parking for one car, sought-after in the area, taking in the sea glimpses from your abode. Step indoors to be met by the contemporary, open-plan living space, where you can prepare meals, dine indoors, and unwind with the Smart TV for entertainment; enjoy the breath-taking vistas from this position through the patio doors, also flooding the space with natural light. Head out onto the front sun terrace to bask in your enviable surroundings, perfect for an alfresco affair with a glass of wine in hand, before climbing the stairs to the bedrooms. On the first floor you'll locate the king-size bedroom, benefiting from a private balcony to enjoy the turquoise waters from; on this floor you'll also find a sleek shower room and utility. Climb up to the top floor to find the twin and single bedrooms, and the bathroom, completing the home. If you can tear yourself away, head into the bustling city, brimming with shops, eateries, pubs, and must-visit sights, with plenty of activity near the marina; spend your day at Firestone Bay, enjoy a picnic at Hoe Park, tour The Mayflower Museum, sample some local produce at the Plymouth Gin Distillery, or head to the National Marine Aquarium as a family․ Just a stones throw from the property, is a luxurious newly opened cinema with waitress service for food and drinks in the Royal William Yard. Take a trip on our historic foot ferry from Stonehouse to The Rame Peninsula, known as, Cornwall’s forgotten corner. Loved for centuries by all who have travelled on her, the Cremyll Ferry is one of Plymouth’s true gems and provides a gateway to discover this beautiful part of the South West. Whether commuting or holidaying in Devon or Cornwall, our 8 minute trip takes you across the River Tamar, with spectacular views of Mount Edgcumbe, Royal William Yard and Plymouth Sound. Located near Cornwall, there's plenty of beautiful shorelines and coastal villages to stop off at, starting with Looe, Polperro and Fowey, or if you prefer a nature-filled landscape, both the Tamar Valley AONB and Dartmoor National Park can be reached, worth packing your walking boots for. All of this waits at Harbourside Cottage.

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.
