"This was an excellently positioned property,with the bonus of private parking."
It was warm and comfortable and had a nice layout.As we are keen cooks, we could have done with a few more implements such as a sieve and small dishes or saucers.We would be happy to stay again if we could face the 8 hour return journey to Cambridge .(6 1/2 to get there).

"The property itself has a lovely layout lounge and kitchen area."
Combined spicious seating area bedrooms are nicely laid out with all amenities that you need wardrobe bedside cabinet everything that you need. Bathroom as all bathroom are with a shower in bath
As it states in the description, there is a Courtyard. So no real seating area outside
The only downsided I found this is just as I come from the countryside. The property is on the main road. So there is a fair bit of traffic, but this is only my personal opinion.

Great little cottage - was surprised when looked round as pictures don’t do the second room justice with the beautiful courtyard balcony and the upstairs mezzanine is on pictures but maybe needs explaining a bit re access to stairs is in the kids room
Great facilities and location central to everywhere we needed with some great fast food shops down road that came in handy on day of arrival with hungry children and tired parents from travelling - would definitely recommend - neighbours lovely as well - our holiday was 2 years in the making as had originally booked it for last year but due to illness could t come so the owner was lovely and moved it forward for us to this year thank you

"A really lovely stay."
Great access to the SW coast path - Berry Head, Man Sands, Sharkham Point on one side and Churston, Broadsands, Paignton around the other. Brixham itself is fantastic with plenty of shopping, pubs, restaurants on offer. The accommodation was excellent - well equipped for short or long stays. Lovely neighbours who offered great local insight as an added benefit. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

Traffic noise not a problem for us. Would recommend a visit to Berry Head Hotel for a coffee and great views. Would definitely book again in the future.

"We were extremely happy with the property and found it well equipped and very comfortable and clean."
However, we are in our 70's and would have liked some handles to aid getting in and out of the shower.
We did find it difficult to sleep there due to the property being on the corner of a very busy crossroads with traffic lights and a pedestrian crossing made it very noisy from 5am to past midnight. Maybe some sound proofing would help.

"The property is really lovely, we were impressed when we arrived."
Very clean & comfortable. Everything you need, location great as only 10 mins walk into Brixham. Only 2 tiny niggles - the front door mortise lock is difficult to open & lock so we were worried about breaking the key & the upstair flooring is really creaky when trying to walk around or walking to bathroom at night. Apart from that it’s a real lovely property & well worth staying there.

"A super clean, well equipped house a 10 minute walk to the harbour with its extensive bus & boat links to most of the touristy sites."
As others have said there is some noise from the cross roads outside - it's not a huge issue though as the town is small enough not to have much in the way of a rush hour. There are plenty of eating options in the town - as always the reviews on tripadvisor will lead you in the right direction. The only complaint I have is the creaking floorboards in the smaller bedroom - they can be fixed rather than be viewed as part of the experience of an old house ! The friendly caretakers of the property lived eight footsteps away (I never got their names) they were a wealth of information about the area especially for those doing the coastal path walk.

Second was the lumpy uncomfortable mattress so it did spoil my stay this time around

"Overall the property was dirty, it had not been cleaned properly for a long time and there was evidence of the previous renters dirt (crumbs on the table, food in the kitchen drain, dirty cutlery and glasses and spaghetti stuck to the inside of a pan, microwave filthy etc)
Property offered poor provision-
No oven gloves
No kitchen towel
Only one tea towel provided for a week
No kitchen paper - but stand provided
Minimal washing up liquid
No additional bin bags
2 kitchen lights not working and no bulbs provided for these lights
Minimal bathroom hand wash provided
Bathroom sink plugs and radiator rusty
Bathroom blind casing filthy
Bathroom radiator not working fully (previous renters had reported this in the visitor book)
Carpets and bedside rugs upstairs did not feel fresh
Sykes please address the failings of this property with the owners - it is very unpleasant to live for a week somewhere you feel is dirty and not up to standard."
On a better note - the bedding and towels were clean and fresh.

"Nice comfortable place to stay handy for walking to Brixham."
The only thing we didn't like was the road noise. Radiator in bathroom didn't come on when we stayed but the rest of the place was toasty we just left the doors open so nowhere was cold. Minor points carpets need a clean in the bedroom as previously someone's spilt something and good underlay in the future. Yes i did have to wash glasses before we used them but that's often the case with holiday lets not an issue for us.

"Cottage was as advertised and had excellent facilities and was very clean."
Situated just a five minute walk from the harbour had a tight parking space but at least safe and off road. Only issue we had was with the dishwasher not working properly which I tried to resolve myself but the owner was contacted but I didnt receive any response which was slightly disappointing but overall would recommend.

"The cottage is spacious, very well equipped, with lots of storage."
The furnishings are lovely, the bed was really comfortable, and everwhere spotlessly clean. Thankfully, there is off road parking. We really enjoyed our stay, and Brixham is a good base for exploring the area. The building is positioned on a busy crossroads with cars stopping and starting at traffic lights, and at times it was really noisy.
