The property is well positioned for a quick walk to the town/harbour. The secret garden steps to the road below were very Brixham and useful indeed. The property was comfortable and well equipped. It is compact but beautifully formed and we enjoyed nights in, as well as out. The outdoor terrace has a super view of the harbour and, as we were blRead moreessed with good weather, was a very peaceful and sunny spot to sit. The property is very close to a small community garden (the jubilee gardens) which was useful for morning and evening toilet breaks for our dog, as the property itself only has a yard. We were also grateful for access to a parking space in the multi storey car park, as the parking very limited on the road outside the property. I also would worry about parking there, as the road is very narrow and some delivery drivers were a little care free on it. We would definitely visit the property again if we return to Brixham. Thanks so much for a lovely stay! Hide

Fantastic cottage lovely views of the harbour really clean and tidy. The owners are super attentive. Parking is an issue the roads are very tight and parking on the road is a challenge however the home owner has provided a pass for a multi storey which is a 5 min walk. Very hilly lots of steps so if you have mobility issue this house is not for youRead more ! It truly is a lovely cottage Hide

We had a great stay in this cottage whilst we explored Brixham and its surrounds. It was only my wife and myself so a 3 bedroom cottage was very spacious. It has everything you could possibly need including a TV in every room. Theres plenty of information within, which was very helpful when youre new to both the cottage and Brixham.
