Description
1st Floor Apartment only 200m from the beautiful beaches at Goodrington Sands. An idyllic spot looking out over the lovely parkland and nature reserve at Goodrington Park.
The beaches are the best in the area with long stretches of fine, yellow sand. There are plenty of activities for the family and a huge pub/restaurant right on the seafront. The kids can have fun in safety as the beach and park are protected on both sides by the impressive headlands. There are some wonderful walks interwoven with the Steam Railway which passes by the park several times a day offering pleasure trips to Kingswear and Dartmouth.
With a fully equipped leisure centre only 10 minutes walk the apartment has a wealth of opportunities for all the family whatever your holiday requirements.
There is a superb Golf course (Churston Golf Club) only 10 minutes drive towards Brixham with mini Golf nearby at Broadsands.
The accommodation itself is perfect for a small family holiday with a large open plan lounge kitchen and 2 quiet double bedrooms located at the rear of the property. The Master Bedroom has two large wardrobes with plenty of space for a long stay. Views over the rear garden. (Travel cot available too.)
The kitchen is fitted with modern and stylish units with integrated appliances including an electric oven and grill, gas hob, fridge, freezer and washing machine. The living room comes furnished with a grey/black contemporary style 4 seater sofa, matching oak coffee table/dining suite. Utensils and accessories include a kettle, toaster, microwave and coffee machine.
Breakfast bar with 2 modern bar stools.
50" Samsung TV with Freeview, DVD player, stereo system and Wi-Fi. A selection of board games, DVDs and books.

“Ticked all the boxes!”
We had a great time staying in the apartment for a long weekend. It was perfect for the kids - aged 3 and 18months - with plenty to do within walking distance- the beach, park, play park and into Paignton. We instantly felt at home in there - yet it still felt very special. Ruth was a great host. We’ll be back!

Response from the owner Thank you for your kind words and especially letting me know that it ticked all your boxes. It's good to know that it suited your little ones... and, hopefully, a calm place for you to relax once they'd gone to bed too. Looking forward to welcoming you back, Ruth.

“Our favourite place!”
This was our second stay at Ruth's place & it was just as wonderful as the first, if not more so! A few updates in the flat (TV etc) meant that it was a real home away from home, with everyth… More

Response from the owner Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you spotted the updates too, I try to make improvements every year, to keep everything up together, using the winter to improve some of those things that are tricky to do through the summer. Looking forward to welcoming you back, Ruth

Response from the owner Thank you for your kind words. Wanting guests to have the best holiday possible is my priority. I can take no credit for the cleanliness of the apartment, that's down to my lovely housekeeper Ilona! We look forward to welcoming you back to Apartment Three.

“High Gables Apartment 3.”
Ruth the host was fantastic, helpful and very informative. The apartment was perfect for our stay and had everything we needed. All of us found the beds very comfortable and all the bed linen and some towels were provided. It also has its own parking space which is very convenient. Check in was easy with very clear instructions. Would highly recommend staying in Ruth’s apartment, get booking.

Response from the owner Many thanks for your positive review. So glad you found the apartment perfect for your stay and that you found the beds comfortable too. Just to confirm, we provide a flannel, hand towel and bath towel for each guest, along with a bath mat and tea towels and, where a guest stays for a second week, we always offer to change the bed linen and towels half way through the holiday. Should you wish to visit Torbay again, please don't hesitate to contact me.

“Great experience and I highly recommend.”
Great location, a 5 minute walk to the dog friendly beach and 10 minutes from the family beach. It's a 15 to 20 minute walk to the main town either through the local area or along the seafront. A… More

Response from the owner Many thanks for your recommendation Stuart. Having holidayed with my sons (and now grandson too) in the area for well over 30 years, it's good to be able to share some of the places that we've enjoyed as a family - many of which remain just as they were all those years ago. I'm always happy to try to help guests have the best holiday they can... though, unfortunately, without pooches!

Response from the owner Thank you for your kind words. Our housekeeper does all she can to get the apartment just right for everyone. We think the location works well, whether you're on foot, travelling by train or indeed in your own car and, as you say, close to the amenities that Devon has to offer. We look forward to welcoming you to Apartment Three on another occasion.

“Perfect place to stay in Paignton”
This property is an absolute gem situated opposite a park and within a short walk to a beach. The owner, Ruth, is extremely helpful. The property itself is very clean, comfortable, spacious and very w… More

Response from the owner Thank you for your kind words. Our housekeeper takes huge pride in maintaining the apartment and ensuring it looks good for arrivals. The walk to Brixham is one of my favourites, often walked with my three little boys, who are now in their thirties! When it's operating, you can get the ferry across the bay from Brixham to Torquay and then continue your walk back to the Goodrington - especially good that the home leg is the flatter of the two!

“Great apartment!”
Ruth's place was sparkling clean, organized, and very relaxing. We had a fantastic stay in Torbay. There was a good restaurant down a path, through a park, right around the corner. There was a beach with some walking paths right after that. This location was a good home base for exploring Dartmoor National Park and the surrounding countryside!

Response from the owner Many thanks for your kind words. We're so glad you had such a good stay and especially that you found the location to be a good base for all you wanted to do. Visiting Haytor, Dartmoor, is often on my to do list, even in the winter when the weather may be a little more challenging!
