Guests say
Wrens Perch in Brixham is a beautifully presented cottage with stunning harbour and sea views, modern décor, and a well-equipped kitchen. Guests consistently praise the hot tub, garden, and proximity to the town centre, though note the steep walk and challenging parking. The property is comfortable and stylish, with thoughtful touches from the host. While a few minor maintenance and cleanliness issues were mentioned, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, making it a popular choice for repeat visitors and those seeking a relaxing break with excellent amenities.
Most guests found the property spotlessly clean and well maintained, though a small number reported missed areas such as behind the sofa and kitchen fittings. These were minor and did not detract significantly from the overall experience.
The location is highly praised for its breathtaking views and easy access to Brixham harbour and local amenities. The steep walk back from the harbour is frequently mentioned, but most guests found it manageable and part of the charm.
Guests describe the cottage as comfortable, modern, and cosy, with quality furnishings and beds. Some noted the open-plan bedroom/bathroom layout and lack of blackout blinds as minor drawbacks, but overall comfort is rated very highly.
Facilities such as the hot tub, garden, well-equipped kitchen, and parking are consistently highlighted as excellent. Occasional comments about parking limitations and minor kitchen equipment issues were noted but did not significantly impact guest satisfaction.
The host is frequently praised for being helpful and responsive, with some guests mentioning welcome gifts such as wine and detailed information packs. Please note that such gifts are not guaranteed for all guests.

The most wonderful stay in Brixham! The property is modern with everything you need. The views from the front and side of the property are breathtaking, and we sat for hours watching the sea and the boats come and go. The location is fabulous and only a five minute walk down to the harbour which is plentiful of pubs, restaurants, shops and activities. The steps coming back up from the harbour are very steep and definitely not for those with limited mobility. However, there is a local bus and taxis can be ordered. The hot tub was a fantastic way to end the day. We are already looking at booking again for next year!
