Gorgeous 1 bedroom property, close walk to Goodrington beach

Guests with dogs return to this Paignton apartment regularly. Several reviewers explicitly mention booking again, and the recurring theme is that the property treats dog travellers as a primary audience rather than an afterthought. The thoughtful touches called out in reviews include a designated doggy area inside the apartment (though one fussy resident found the surface a touch firm) and a secure enclosed outdoor space where dogs can be off-lead safely.

Location is what makes the place work for dog holidays. The South West Coast Path runs close to the property, and Goodrington Sands, a dog-friendly beach during the off-season, is within walking distance. Brixham, Torquay and the wider Tor Bay coastline are short drives, opening up dog-friendly pubs, harbour walks and woodland paths within a half-hour radius. Reviewers describe the apartment's location as ideal for accessing the variety of dog-walking terrain South Devon offers.

The road outside is busy and noise carries into the flat. Reviewers consistently flag this as the only real downside. For most dogs this will not matter, but anxious or noise-sensitive pets might find evenings less restful than at a quieter property. Worth considering if your dog is particularly reactive to traffic sounds.

The host's setup for travelling pets is positive across every review examined: high cleanliness, dog-friendly furnishings, and access to outdoor space. There is no documented pet fee on the booking platform, so confirm directly with the host when reserving.

Best suited to couples or small families travelling with one or two dogs who want a comfortable, well-appointed apartment as a coastal base. Less ideal if you need a quiet street outside, or if you are travelling with a larger group of pets, since this is a one-bedroom property best matched to one or two dogs.
