    Breakfast was amazing, cooked to perfection. The location was excellent. We used the buses as the stops were right outside & buses ran every 10 to 15 or 20 minutes depending on the day.

Helen & Paul
Fair Winds is a lovely guest house situated just a 15 minute walk from Brixham harbour. Our rooms are comfortable and modern, with En-Suite's. Three of our rooms are located on the ground floor, a Single, a King and the Suite, with the other two on the first floor a Super-King/Twin and a King. All rooms have tea & coffee making facilities, free sat tv & free Wi-Fi. We have ample free on-site parking.
Since 28th May 2015 Paul & Helen are the proud owners of Fair Winds, where there is always a warm welcome awaiting you. We try to ensure that everyone who visits has a happy stay. We love our local area where there are numerous places to visit and restaurants to eat.
We are close to the harbour where you will find lots to do. Interesting little shops and most of the pubs and restaurants.
