The pièce de resistance is the elevated decked terrace, perfectly situated to make the most of the beautiful views of the town and water and providing the perfect spot to watch the sunset with a glass of bubbly.

Needless to say, this comfortable and well-appointed apartment has been furnished to a high standard throughout with both style and comfort in mind.

A short stroll along the waterside promenade brings you to the town centre with its excellent range of shops, pubs, restaurants and cafes. The popular seaside towns of Salcombe and Dartmouth are nearby and the renowned South Hams beaches are also just a short drive away.

The local area

The lively market town of Kingsbridge sits in a picturesque position in the heart of the South Hams Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and also at the head of the stunning Kingsbridge/Salcombe Estuary. The waterside town is surrounded by green rolling landscape, and is popular amongst walkers and watersports enthusiasts alike, with paddle boarders and kayakers being a common sighting on the town's waters, as well as sailing dinghies and motor boats.

Beach lovers will be spoilt for choice with so many excellent beaches within an easy drive of the town, including Hope Cove, Bantham, Bigbury-on-Sea, Slapton Sands, Blackpool Sands, Beesands, Mill Bay and the beaches at Salcombe's North and South Sands – to name just a few!

With a range of restaurants and pubs as well as a good selection of shops and two supermarkets, Kingsbridge has plenty to offer visitors. For a beautiful day out, take a cruise on the seasonal Rivermaid ferry up the estuary to Salcombe to spend a day on one of Salcombe’s stunning beaches, or pottering around the sailing mecca's shops, cafés and restaurants.

For all-weather family fun, head to Woodlands Theme Park with its massive indoor soft play areas and rides, or check the pool and sports timetables at the Quayside Leisure Centre. Kingsbridge is also home to Kings Cinema, (formerly known as the Reel Cinema) a three-screen cinema, perfect for catching new releases as well as some older classics and indie films.

Throughout the summer months, the town hosts various events and markets that make for a pleasant day out for all the family. The annual fair week provides daily fun activities whilst the popular Food and Music Festival is a wonderful celebration of local talent and produce, with some big names thrown in.
