I like it how I’ve been watching this but yet I live here😂

[@GimbalWalkTV]

That’s how I started doing this! I watched one on my home city 🤣

[@ellenkellett6529]

I so love Brixham the sea food is the best in the country I think

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Have to agree with you on the sea food

[@Bruce-vq7ni]

🤮 But you will get the shits if you drink the water 🚽

The Albero (@ 6:50 ) does a lovely meze 😊

Lovely video. Brixham is beautiful, so picturesque. You made me relax for half an hour. Just wish I had a cream tea to go with the video.

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Thank you! 😊

The barge is used for salvage, and lifting boats etc. Its a shame you didnt refer to the ' Man and Boy' statue which is in memory of those lost and sea.

My wife and I love Brixham and have been going there almost yearly in June ( amongst other places ) since 2011 taking our touring caravan down there for a few weeks from Leigh near Wigan. Lovely as your video is there is a lot more in the area you don't mention. Berry head is good for a few hours as is the regular ferry trip to Torquay. Dartmouth is also nearby and a train trip on the steam railway to cross on the ferry to there from Paington is lovely. There is a little theatre in Brixham that has regular productions and a few years ago we went to see a burlesque show there - wipes forehead. Crab sandwiches from those cabins on the Quay are to die for. Occasionally they have artistes performing under the covered area near the pirate ship. You never toured the main shopping street but that is also a worthwhile walk. During our most recent trip there we were in our caravan staying on a THS at the rugby club for about £12 per night - cheap as chips. For years there used to be an old lady dressed all in black who frequented the port area and was often pushing a supermarket trolley containing her worldly goods - homeless I expect. We sometimes contributed to her plight. The last time we visited Brixham there was no sign of her and I wondered what happened to her. You never showed the steps on Temperance Place - not for the feint hearted or vertigo sufferers. Love Brixham

Sir Francis Drakes Mock of the Golden Hind has gone. It went for a bit. And got sailed. Ohh it's back there. 👍I used to love the sea fed swimming pool there. It was Great as a Kid.👍

[@jennifertonks4311]

It’s beautiful here.I and a friend thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

[@GimbalWalkTV]

As you note, it is reminiscent of Whitby! Looks fantabulous!

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Very much so!

[@IvoryWhites]

I do love Brixham Neil. First time I've ever seen it, such a relaxing pretty looking village beautiful mutli coloured properties looking out on to the Sea. And lovely quaint shops! A beautiful place for a relaxing summer holiday! Tho it also looks perfect this January & your new camera & Gimal is excellent the picture is crystal clear!🤩

[@stevehillier7018]

First went there in the late 70s definitely 1980. I can honestly say it looks the same as I remember . Going there for a short break soon so will definitely dig up some memories of be between 12 and 14 years old. Beautiful place

Very nice town looks like cities in Brittany. Thank you very much for your awesome video. One day I will cross the channel to visit for the second time Devon and Cornwall.

[@GimbalWalkTV]

I might have to head the other way and check out Brittany too!

[@2975piha]

Their are many beautiful cities in Brittany and islands. You will have a huge choice. I will be please to see them.

Been binge watching your Devon and Cornwall videos, just fantastic thank you!!

[@georgebenz7415]

The barge in question looks like one used by the port to pull, place and relocate mooring buoys with their anchors.

[@spark6886]

Brings back several happy memories ~ a lovely Devon resort ~~ thank you

[@elainehowell2836]

That is a beautiful place to visit and walk round and peaceful and the Swans are lovely and it is very nice and claim town for a rest and did you get any food and drinks and it is a nice sunny day with the seagulls in the background looking for food thanks Neil

[@GimbalWalkTV]

The seagulls here seem very intent on grabbing your food ha ha!

[@ColinBrodie]

I used to live across the bay from Brixham in Torquay. I lived there for three years. My favourite place in the UK. Brixham is so tranquil. Part of God's County :)

[@cannyexplorer5357]

One of my favourite places to visit on a day trip. But while the road closures on the outskirts making the bus journey too long will be going elsewhere. Told its only for three months but no one believes that as never has any roadworks in Torbay kept to the timescale. Probably will still be sorting them out in 6 months time if the residents are lucky.

[@rjc7026]

Had many a day visit there whilst holidaying in Paignton. Can remember as a child a scene from Worzel Gummidge being filmed the day we were there, must be around 1980 ish!

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Ah Worzel and Aunt Sally!

[@metaldog88]

I first visited a friend in Brixham last summer 2022. My partner and I were blown away by how pretty it was but also how incredibly dog-friendly it was too. We've bought a bungalow overlooking the harbour for our retirement in 5 years. If you have dogs the South West Coastal path is brilliant in the Spring.

[@Allthingswitchy106]

Started going on holiday to Brixham 1987. And lived there for a year in 1998 before going back to Manchester. Love the place, just didn't like the company I was keeping (my husband😂) Now hoping to retire there. 😊

[@christopherwithers999]

the boat ;looked like a crab or lobster boat i saw a winch for the pots to be brought aboard

[@melgrant7404]

I went to sharkham point as a child.

[@pavelkorsak]

This place has many cities to walk is there

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Not sure

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

If they're still in business, Simply Fish (at 9:58), the Rock Fish Café (at 18:30), and the Breakwater Coffee Shop & Bistro (not shown) are all restaurants I will personally vouch for.

[@brucecharlie8613]

It's a one day wonder. Do the Berry head cliffs, look at the pretty ship. Have some fish and chips and then move on.

[@GimbalWalkTV]

[@gaycha6589]

@@melgrant7404 not the original BB, run by the Cudd family. Was a great tourist boat.

[@gaycha6589]

Brixham Belle was built in 1960 as a 'Gentleman's Motor Yacht' in Cowes and named George Henry. The gentleman concerned could not pay for her on completion and the builder converted her to a passenger excursion boat in order to sell her on quickly and cut his losses. She was 48 gross tons and carried 120 passengers. Brixham Belle was operated out of Brixham for many years by Ernie Cudd and family who mainly ran excursions to Dartmouth and up the river Dart during the day and 'Illuminations Cruises' around Torbay after dark. She was much loved by holiday makers and locals alike. After Ernie retired, she stayed in the family for a while with his son-in-law (I think) as skipper. Eventually she was sold to Peter Scott and became the founding vessel for his 'Brixham Belle Cruises'. He kept her until he bought Brixham Belle II (formerly Devon Princess III then Torbay Princess II and now Western Lady VII). Brixham Belle is now in Gibraltar with Dolphin World, still in daily use on dolphin watching trips and still named Brixham Belle.
