Sightseeing
The working Harbour is a short stroll away from the house with Bistros and shops and small cafes dotted around. Well worth a visit but take your camera. Catch the water ferry to Brixham or Torquay and watch the sea wildlife.

A visit to Dartmouth over one of the two ferries that run here from higher Brixham is well worth it for the scenery and the life over the water . Look at the houses on the hillside or the Britannia Naval College where the Queen met her husband.
