About this property

View of River, spacious balcony, WIFI, Private Parking, Dog friendly, EV point.

This 2 Storey detached home is located directly by the infamous Brunel railway bridge with views along the River Tamar which has constant activity. You can sit on the settee with the patio doors open wide and watch the sailing boats go by. On a warm evening, sitting on the balcony with a good book and a glass of something refreshing is very relaxing especially after a busy day sightseeing.

There is a TV with free-view plus good Wi-Fi. Fully equipped kitchen area with an electric hob, oven, microwave and small fridge/freezer. If you need something specific just ask. A comfy good size double bed with quality linen and duvet is up a set of stairs on the second floor. The separate bathroom contains a shower, sink and toilet. There is central heating and plenty of hot water.

Off road parking included. Electric Vehicle charger is located on the property available to guests subject to charges.

Well behaved pets are also welcome but we do request that they are not left alone in the apartment during your stay and they do not climb/sleep on the furniture or bed.

Picturesque and ideal base for walking and exercising with pleasant surroundings. Situated on the Gateway to Cornwall to explore sandy beaches & places of natural beauty within easy reach.
Main line and local rail station nearby. Locally you can have a very pretty journey along the River Tamar to the village of Calstock. Here you will find The Boot Inn, which is a traditional family run Pub & Restaurant sitting in the centre of the unspoilt village of Calstock lying right next to the Tamar estuary steeped in history and with quirky cottages aligning its narrow but picturesque streets. You are able to walk from this village along the river to the National Trust gardens at Cotehele.

You can venture on the mainland railway for a trip into Cornwall visiting the seaside towns of Looe or St Ives plus many more places of interest. Travelling into Devon you could alight at either Paignton or Torquay where you will find the Model Village at Babbacombe. Feel like a giant as you step through the small entrance and the vast miniature world opens up before you. Explore 4 acres of award-winning gardens showcasing hundreds of uniquely hand-crafted model scenes, vehicles & people.
The Model Village portrays a generic version of Britain through the decades with some well-known landmarks. There's many hidden puns, fun scenes and lots of humour for all to enjoy.
Try out the famous and award winning tour which is the best way to explore South Devon! Includes steam train, river boat and bus visiting the quaint towns of Paignton, Dartmouth and Totnes. and the round robin bus tour.

Brunel Boathouse is on the doorstep of history itself with Isambard Kingdom Brunel's Royal Albert Bridge. A remarkable railway bridge spanning the River Tamar between Plymouth, Devon, and Saltash, Cornwall. Designed by the renowned engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, this iconic structure features two 455-foot (138.7 m) lenticular iron trusses soaring 100 feet (30.5 m) above the water. The bridge also includes conventional plate-girder approach spans, resulting in a total length of 2,187.5 feet (666.8 m) The Royal Albert Bridge has been a sightseeing attraction since its completion in 1859 and has appeared in various artworks, photographs, and even on the UK £2 coin. Also nearby is a granite memorial stone that is positioned in the gardens, there are two identical signs and an interpretation panel on site to commemorate the embarkation of US soldiers of the V and VII Corps for the D-Day landings of World War II.

Around the corner from the property is a bus stop for a trip into the centre of Plymouth, plus local taxis service available.
The waterfront city of Plymouth is set in one of the finest locations in the country, it stands right on the border between Devon and Cornwall overlooking the spectacular waters of Plymouth Sound to the south, while the remote beauty of Dartmoor National Park nudges its margins to the north. Both Devon and Cornwall have long been cherished as holiday destinations with fabulous beaches, stunning unspoilt countryside, historic town and many more famous attractions such as the Eden Project. Plymouth city centre has a pedestrianised shopping centre with its undercover shopping centre. It has a large modern multi-screen cinema complex and the well known Theatre Royal which regularly plays host to The Birmingham Royal Ballet in addition to the musicals, plays, comedies and operas that are staged throughout the year. In contrast, The Barbican offers a more cosmopolitan atmosphere being Plymouth city’s oldest quarter. The area overlooks a pretty harbour and includes a variety of small independent shops, a number of wine bars, restaurants and cafes with open air seating.

Plenty to see in Plymouth such as the historic Royal William Yard, the Barbican, Hoe and coastal paths. There is a ferry crossing from Cremyl to Mount Edgcumbe which is an excellent area to explore. The National Trust has numerous locations within easy distance. Ideal to spend an afternoon at Buckland Abbey, the home of Sir Francis Drake with an excellent depiction of his life.

Not only is Brunel Boathouse ideal for holidays and professional stays, it is ideally located for the University, Marjons Graduation ceremonies plus the Naval passing out parades at Raleigh. Close by to the Naval Base, Babcock and for the events held at the Life Centre/Central Park.

About the host

Hosted by Elaine

Host profile image
Experienced Serviced Accommodation provider who is passionate about creating an individual, modern yet homely environment as well as helping guests to have an enjoyable stay be it for business or leisure.
I am married and my husband and I both enjoy travelling, visiting within the UK and world wide.
Some of my interests include kayaking and cycling (bit of a cheat though as I do turn on the motor for the hills leaving my husband far in the distance with a smug smirk on my face!). I try to keep active but also enjoy the Theatre and spending social time with my family and friends.
I have seen my fair share of hotels and self catering accommodation on my travels. As a host, I can’t wait to show fellow travellers the same great hospitality that I have had across the globe.

Why they chose this property

My properties are situated on the Devon/Cornwall border (Gateway to Cornwall) and you will have the entire place to yourself with a lockbox plus private entrances for added security. There is a lot to do and as I live nearby, I would be happy to meet with you (at a socially acceptable distance of course) to discuss if that’s something you would like. Please take time to read my guidebook which shows a lot of varied activities in easy reach plus local restaurants, bars etc.
Whilst River View and Sunset Place offer a great place to stay for holiday makers, they are also fabulous properties for Professional stays and within easy reach for Plymouth University, College of St Mark and St John (Marjons), Devonport Dockyard (Babcock), HMS Raleigh (Torpoint) and HMS Drake.
Please feel free to contact me if you require any information regarding the properties or the area and I aim to respond in an instant
