Devon holiday cottage

An elegantly presented, four-storey townhouse with over 2500 square feet of period accommodation, in a Victorian terrace at the heart of the vibrant city of Plymouth. This townhouse has many original features, including sash windows, pretty ceiling cornices, marble fireplaces and window shutters. The kitchen features a stunning tiled floor, leading into the breakfast area with patio doors onto the private courtyard garden. Situated on the Plymouth side of the Tamar Estuary close to Richmond marine, Cremyll and Mount Edgecombe, there are three great real English pubs nearby serving ales, quality food and local fish dishes. Catch the nearby passenger ferry to Mount Edgecombe, home to a super pub with breathtaking scenery, or you can take a 15 minute walk to the Plymouth Hoe and the Barbican, with its restaurants, pubs and art galleries. About the area: Dartmoor 17 miles; Torbay 32 miles; Cornwall 45 miles.

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.
