Riviera Bay Holiday Park in Brixham is a clifftop coastal retreat with sweeping sea views over St Mary’s Bay and direct access to the South West Coast Path. Holiday lodge owners can enjoy a small seasonal outdoor swimming pool, landscaped grounds, and shared use of facilities at neighbouring Landscove Holiday Park, including an enclosed swimming pool, The Cove Bar & Kitchen and on-park shop. This dog-friendly lodge park suits couples and families who want peaceful, high-spec coastal escapes rather than a large, high-energy resort. With an 11.5-month ownership season and the option to let out your lodge, Riviera Bay Holiday Park offers flexible seaside breaks for most of the year.

Description

Riviera Bay Holiday Park is set on Mudstone Lane, right on the headland above St Mary’s Bay, with contemporary lodges arranged to make the most of the sea views and coastal outlooks. Decking and glass-fronted balustrades give many plots a front-row position over the bay, with plenty of space to sit out, watch the light change on the water and listen to the sea.

On park, owners typically have access to a seasonal outdoor pool and compact facilities building, with additional shared use of the enclosed outdoor swimming pool, bar, café and shop at sister park Landscove, a short walk or drive away. Day to day, you can step straight onto the South West Coast Path towards Berry Head or Brixham, then return to a quiet, owner-focused environment rather than a busy holiday complex. Everyday services, supermarkets and healthcare are available in Brixham, Paignton and Torquay, with road links towards the A380 and A38, and rail connections from Paignton, journey times service dependent.
