Hello my name is Yvonne I have owned Lapwing 2 since 2015 when it was a new build. The first time I saw the site I was blown away by it and it was still a building site. Having worked in banking all my life starting another career running a Holiday let business was certainly a huge learning curve. I have to say the Devon people have been more than encouraging, very friendly and willing to give you their whole efforts. I originally used a local booking agent because they knew the area well and gave me great advice and feedback. Over the years I have had very good reviews and try to keep in touch with all the many changes that guests expect. I have now decided the time has come to reach out further with my bookings and so having used Booking for my own holidays I chose them and immediately bookings started to arrive. Finally I would like all my guests to experience the wow factor, which I can guarantee when they drive through The Cove gates, and to also thank them for booking my stunning apartment. Happy holidays Yvonne
The Cove is situated in the lee of Fishcombe Point and Battery Park, and within walking distance to both Fishcombe Coves and Berry Head National Trust Nature Reserve. A carefree stroll round the pretty harbour town of Brixham with its vibrant atmosphere of the surrounding harbour cafes and colourful stalls is highly recommended. The main bus station is located in the town square. Bus Routes 12 = Newton Abbot and Paignton 16 = local within the Brixham area 18 = Kingswear where you can catch the ferry to Dartmouth Fore Street is the main pedestrianised shopping area. The Cove is in an ideal place for a perfect day in South Devon, surrounded by the beautiful countryside that Devon has to offer as the ‘Riviera of England’, or for more activity access The South West Coast Path spanning over 22 miles of coastal walks/cycling a perfect all year round location. Shoalstone Outdoor seawater pool/lido is a 15 minute walk away (no life guards) Numerous signposts direct you to hidden bays including the very popular soft sandy beaches of Broadsands, and Goodrington with their brightly coloured beach huts and an exhilarating water plume slide. Dartmouth 7 miles – The area surrounding the River Dart offers river tours, the unique Dartmouth architecture including Agatha Christies birth home Greenway House. You can also travel on the South Devon Steam Railway providing stunning views of the coastline. Torquay 8.5 miles – Lots of beaches to choose from, Kents Cavern to explore and the brilliant Living Coasts coastal zoo where you can walk with penguins.
