  Egert was compact but perfect for one person, its well equipped and easy to get your bags loaded and unloaded, especially if you arrived/leaving on a rainy day.

  I'd read reviews about the smell from drains in the property, but never experienced this even when you could smell the drains when in the car park. Also, some saying its noisy as its next to the car park, which isn't entirely true. There are some car park spaces next to Egert and yes I heard cars but nothing to write home about, I heard more noise on the Saturday night from the Caravan site clubhouse behind! But even that wasn't an issue, as it went quiet after about 11.30pm. Having the pool was lovely, I was lucky to have it all to myself every evening as I think most people used it earlier in the day. The view from the pool out to sea was stunning! The gentleman who was looking after the pool and site maintenence was very friendly and The Cove was very well kept. Beautiful views and so peaceful. Egert does sadly lack that uninterrupted view due to its position, you do get a little view, but it just meant I had to go walking around The Cove and into Brixham to enjoy a better view, which wasn't a bad thing for me. The only reason I haven't given 5 stars to comfort is that I found the settee a little uncomfortable. The cushions were no help either to squish in behind me, as they appeared to be feather and I'm sure my itchy eyes were a reaction to them. I also think the bathroom could benefit from a little storage cupboard next to or under the sink, but you can easily manage without. Cleanliness inside the property and on site was 5 star, the reason for only 4 stars was the large amount of cobwebs on the outside furniture and decking. Too many to have appeared in the time from the previous guests leaving to me arriving on the day. First impression from the outside wasn't what you get inside.

  The bungalow had everything necessary for the vacation stay in a small area.

  Washing machine and dishwasher were easy to use. Unfortunately there was no radio. The toilet paper holder was still loose despite the evaluation notes in advance. The freezer compartment of the fridge was not defrosted so there was hardly any space for frozen goods. Unfortunately there was no open sea view when sitting on the small terrace. The other bungalows were in front of it. The parasol and chairs seen in the photos fell victim to a storm. There are 2 wicker chairs and a shelf available for this purpose. The bungalow is in close proximity to parking lots. There was a bit of noise associated with the arrival and departure of cars in the morning hours. There wasn't much storage space for luggage. We were able to put our 2 suitcases in a small closet-like recessed wall in the bedroom. On the day of departure you have to leave the bungalow by 9 a.m. 10:00 a.m. or 11:00 a.m. would have been nicer. The couch is not in the middle of the room as you can see in the pictures, but on the left on the wall and next to it is the dining table. This also seems better for the division in the room. The holiday was otherwise very nice in this tranquil place, especially since you had the opportunity to walk directly to Brixham within about 20 minutes.

  Egret is an ideal size for 2 people , we did notice a couple of places where the paintwork on the walls could do with a touch up and the top of one of the set of drawers in the bedroom could do with refreshing ( IMO ) , very quiet at night which was nice.

  The only real fault I can find and it's not really to do with the property itself is that if you have any mobility issues it may not be ideal as there is a steep upward hill up to the road if you want to walk into Brixham that way and there is quite a steep climb down if you would prefer to go the coastal path way but either way I would definitely recommend getting taxis back as its to much to walk , there isn't a great deal to do in the area where egret is so you will need to go into Brixham most days to either spend it there or to commute to other places if your like me and don't want to be driving everywhere but all in all we enjoyed our stay.

  The apartment is really lovely and so well equipped. Perfect for our family of 4. Location for walking into brixham is great. Only downside was the traffic noise in the front bedroom which I know is unavoidable but my hope of being able to lay in bed a bit longer in the morning wasn’t achieved! It should perhaps be made a bit clearer that the long stay parking is a 20 minute walk from the door and you can’t park outside to unload as the door is pretty much at the crossing and it’s double yellows. Other than that we had a fabulous little holiday. Thank you

  Lovely stay at Egret, although bed was a little uncomfortable.

  Fridge was very loud, especially at night. It was a good base to stay and go out from, which we did every day. Lovely walk into Brixham through the Battery Gardens and lots to do and see around there too. Would have liked to use the pool, but it was always busy, mainly with kids, so didn't get chance to do this. But we had a very enjoyable week, with great weather too. We would love to go again.
