About this property

Salty Breeze is just 160m from the golden sands of Preston Beach, Paignton.

Located just 160 metres from Preston Sands beach, Salty Breeze is a homely, one-level property with its own front door. Centred in the beautiful English Rivera, between the pretty fishing port of Brixham and the historic birth place of Agatha Christie Torquay, you can enjoy fine dining, a classic fish and chip supper, or even have one of Devon’s famous cream teas. Filled with fun days out, we are a stone throw from the renowned Paignton Zoo, the National Park of Dartmoor, and the thatched village of Cockington; you can even catch the steam train to the Naval port of Dartmouth on the River Dart. Come and soak-up the English Rivera sunshine with us.
With 22 miles of coastline and 20 beaches on offer there's something for everyone!

Salty Breeze can sleep up to 4 people (2 adults, 2 children). The sofa bed pulls out to a double. I can also accommodate an additional child if it is an infant in a cot (supplied).
It offers a family bathroom with large enclosed walk in shower.

There is a kitchen and sitting room with a social dining area. Sky TV, Disney and Netflix plus Xbox S series with a selection of games and DVDs. Outside there is a small area with a bench where you can enjoy your morning coffee whilst you watch the world go by. There is no onsite parking but there is free on street parking available close by. Just 8 minute by taxi or 20 minute walk from Paignton train and bus station.

There are shops and eateries all within easy walking distance.

I am happy for up to 3 dogs to stay, any additional dogs please enquire. Dogs are not allowed to to be left alone in the apartment at any time.

We stayed with Marie with two adults and two dogs. The cottage was as described and in a really good location. Parking was never a problem in October either. We didn't particularly like Paington itself, but it was a great place for lots of activities. The cottage is small but very nice, we had everything we needed and communication with Marie worked very well. We were welcomed with scones, cream, and marmalade. Everything was very lovingly and meticulously equipped and absolutely clean. We had a wonderful week. Highly recommended.

Nice apartment in Paington.

Very good, clean and modern apartment. We were four persons and it worked very well. Close to the beach but a bit off from the city center of Paignton and Torquay.

About the host

Hosted by Marie Timmons

Host profile image
I have spent the past 8 years cleaning and assisting the running of other peoples holiday homes and now its my turn. Born in the bay, I am happy to pass on my knowledge of the best things to do in the area, the walks you shouldn't miss and the places you must visit.

Why they chose this property

Home is where the heart is. I have moved away from the bay twice but missed the sea too much. I picked the location of Salty Breeze because you have the Sea practically on your door step.
