Guests consistently praise its modern decor, well-equipped kitchen, relaxing hot tub, and lovely garden. The property is within walking distance of the town centre, though the steep steps may challenge those with mobility issues. Parking is convenient for one car, with additional on-street options nearby. The owner is responsive and helpful, and the property is dog-friendly. While a few minor maintenance and layout issues are noted, the overall experience is highly positive and memorable.
Most guests found the property spotlessly clean and well maintained, though a few mentioned missed areas such as behind the sofa and kitchen fittings. These were minor and did not detract significantly from the overall impression.
The location is highly praised for its breathtaking views and proximity to Brixham harbour and local amenities. The steep walk back from the harbour is noted, but most guests found the setting to be a major highlight.
Guests enjoyed the comfortable beds, spacious layout, and relaxing hot tub. Some mentioned the open-plan bedroom/bathroom and lack of blackout blinds as minor drawbacks, but overall comfort was rated highly.
The property offers excellent facilities, including a well-equipped kitchen, large hot tub, garden, and parking. A few guests noted issues with parking for two cars, damaged kitchenware, and the absence of a dining table, but these were outweighed by the positives.

Gave us everything we wanted for a Christmas family holiday. It's elevated location gave stunning views of Brixham and the Torbay area. The hottub was well used despite 40 mph winds and below 10 degrees temps outside. The owner was easy to contact (not that we had problems, just needed to check on bank holiday bin collections). Parking for 2 cars (which is a blessing in Brixham!). The house is amazing from the decoration through to the electronic taps and effect lighting. Couldn't have asked for more.
