Brixham

Brixham is beautiful. The property has amazing views. Shower over bath, ok ISH, but the tap leaks. It also leaks in the kitchen. No recycling and the outside bin was full to the brim. We paid extra £100 for linen and was expected to strip beds on vacating. Think this is a bit much to ask when you have to vacate at 9.30am and the fact we paid extra £100 for this service. The stairs are extremely steep, but you are advised about that. Having said that. Paul the host and VRBO were very helpful. Brixham is such a lovely place and the views especially at night,were just lovely. Think

Great spot over looking the harbour

Nice property, some parking available on the street but may be harder in the summer months. Nice size for all of us to fit in and the downstairs room, kitchen diner was good for socialising. The steps down to the kitchen are steep and may cause issues for people with mobility issues or little kids but all good for us.

Fabulous weekend break

What a find! We had a wonderful time, the location of this property is perfect with amazing views and a short walk to the harbour side. The property is well stocked and we were able to park right outside. The stairs down to the kitchen area are very steep which might be of consideration to elderly or very young visitors. Would highly recommend

Great location, amazing house with stunning views

We loved the house and it was so well equipped for a hassle free stay. Steep stairs were a funny talking point but the size of the house was fabulous. Plenty of equipment and lovely tidy furnishings so we could all relax, cook, and enjoy our time together. The host Paul was faultless and we had good contact before our trip which meant we had no surprises.

Beautiful location and setting

The house was very large and suited out larger family Needs . Wonderful scenic views of the harbour and very quiet and peaceful. It wasn’t easy to get parked near the house and it was a busy season, so that’s understandable. Overall we had a really nice time.

Amazing views and great location!

Lovely couple of nights away here - perfect for us and our friends! Great location close to the town centre and amazing views from so many of the rooms and the terrace. Stairs down to the lounge/kitchen are a little steep for anyone with mobility issues - but we were fine. Loved our stay here and will hopefully return next summer 👍

Lovely cottage with amazing views over the harbour

Lovely cottage with all mod cons spread over 4 floors. We explored the area with very little driving. Within 10 mins walk is the beautiful Fishcombe Cove, at the bottom of Battery Gardens. The museum was a small gem, with very helpful guides. Free entry on 3 afternoons a week. Other places to visit include Greenway House, Berry Head and Totnes. There is much more but we ran out of time. Parking is in the roadside, we had 3 cars and always found a spot easily within 2 mins walk and often much closer. Park almost opposite was great to exercise the dog in the early morning and late at night. 5 min walk into town, probably nearer 10 min as it's a steep hill. The cottage itself iscompactGo down to the main living space with up to date kitchen with all that we needed to cater for ourselves. Large fridge with freezer under, cooker and hob, dishwasher and washing machine. Tea towels and dishcloths provided.

Fabulous stay

Fabulous views from this property which was chosen to suit a family of 10, 3 generations, and our dog. There was everything we needed and more. Limited street parking immediately outside but don’t let this put you off as plenty further up the street just a short walk away. We were lucky enough to see seals and dolphins. Great communication from our helpful host

fantastic location and views but many small problems with accomodation

No where on the information does it tell you that there are 3 steep staircases one of which is painted white with no carpet, very small steps, no tread grips and a glass door at the bottom for which I could find no safety kite mark. this was very difficult for my elderly mother and as the kitchen, living room, dining room and patio were down these step she had to struggle. front door lock was hard to open, and there was only one set of keys which is ridiculous when the property sleeps 10, if you want to lock the door and go to bed but others are out you can't! we thought a second set of keys which we found on a key hook in the hall were front door keys (they weren't ) and ended up locked out as the rest of our party had gone somewhere else with what we thought was a second set of keys. phoned the host who didn't have keys, he said he'd call the cleaners but couldn't get hold of them so we had to call the rest of our group to come back from Totnes to let us in. No welcome letter or local info on restaurants etc no instructions for the dishwasher, only very basic boiler instructions. clock in bedroom not working, no bins in any of the bathrooms or bedrooms, no cushions for patio chairs, nowhere in twin rooms to hang clothes, 1 of the duvets was stained, info on website says "All towels and bedding washed in hot water that’s at least 60ºC" which made me think they were provided, so I was surprised to get email day before departure telling me to bring bedding and towels. in the kitchen there was mop and bucket, 2 hoovers, laundry basket and the only bin all in front of the back door and nowhere to put them away. curtains stuck to curtain tracks kitchen was well stocked with crockery and equipment, good size TV, good location easy to get into town. Nice and quiet. Lovely views.

Amazing views!

Amazing views and a 10 minute walk down to the harbour. Lots of large green open spaces great for the dog within seconds of the front door. Very handy having a parking space behind the chain link fence because the road is busy. Overall loved the holiday and will never forget those views. Thank you.

We’re here for a long weekend break with the close family. The Property looks small until you get inside - it’s huge, modern but keeping its quaintness - warm, clean and in a great setting. Fantastic views of Brixham Harbour and Torbay. The kids loved it - Will be back.

Great views and location

Stayed over the New year, great property for a group of 7. Fantastic views over the harbour and quiet location. Easy access to the restaurants, steep walk but only takes 5mins. Parking was ok despite being in 2 cars, managed to park less than 100 yards away. Great comms from the owner with super clear instructions.
