  On arrival to the cottage we found it very easy to find and simple to gain entry via the key safe and information supplied.

  The cottage was very clean and the view from the dining room on the ground floor was striking. The kitchen was compact but there was everything you could possibly want in terms of utensils, pots, pans, dish washer, washing machine and lots of crockery including various glasses. The stairs to the 1st floor are steep and narrow so be warned! The bathroom is excellent with a bath and a shower and is quite big for a cottage. The living room with TV and two sofas was brilliant, I said that the view from the dining room was striking but, from the living room and balcony it is awesome. The two bedrooms were spacious with excellent views and the beds extremely comfortable. I will say, you MUST read the description regarding the steep steps from the harbour. the first flight of 29 steps from street level is like a staircase followed by about 8 gently rising steps followed by about 8 more steep steps. Then there are more steps to the door and more again inside. We were a party of 60 somethings and managed fine but, please don't go here and complain about access as it is in the description. All in all the cottage is first class and the views are outstanding. Having said all of this if you have a car, the parking bay is only a few yards from the gate and apart from shopping it is quite feasible to spend an entire week sitting on the balcony (weather permitting of course). Would I recommend the property? You bet!

  Fantastic holiday in Pebble Bay cottage.

  Extended family 5 of us from age 9 to 69. Beautiful location , view of harbour from bedrooms Fantastic decor. Exceptionally well furnished with top notch fittings. Quirky and brilliant use made of every area to maximise space especially top bedroom with cute ensuite. Good facilities, including Wi-fi and TV, washer and dishwasher. Luxurious main bathroom with roll top bath and free standing shower also. Spotless clean and well looked after. Quite a few narrow stairs but we soon got use to them. Lovely green close by . Poppy loved to win grandad at football there, and visit The Golden Hind pirate ship on the harbour. Good exercise. Brixham is a lovely harbour town, plenty of restaurants and lovely walks. Beautiful coastline, easy walk to town, though quite hilly, soon got used to it, several ways to it , broadsteps best way. Berry Head is a must to visit, lovely little cafe, great views. Good base for Paignton , Goodrington Sands, Totnes, Dartmouth, Torquay, Broadsands Take the bus if you don't want to drive. Plenty of boat trips also. Very friendly locals and well looked after clean streets with lovely flowers everywhere. To top it all , after a cold start the weather turned out to be fantastic for April .Will definitely be back .

  Location of the property is excellent, just behind the main street.

  The road to the property is VERY narrow so if you have a big car like us be careful. The property is on 3 levels with the kitchen on the ground floor with the dining room. Bedrooms on the top floor have fantastic views across the harbour and are comfortable. The main issue we would say would be some parts of the cottage need updating or a very deep clean. The sofas are dirty, the heated towel rail in the bathroom is badly rusted at the bottom and the floor needs re-grouting as there are a lot of loose tiles. Window frames around the property were full of cobwebs and grime. Dining room on the ground floor needs laminate flooring not carpet, and needs brightening up as it’s a small area with very dark furniture in it. Kitchen is small but more than adequate with new cupboards and appliances which is a plus. The furniture on the balcony is old and rusted so we didn’t use it which is a shame as it would be a superb place to sit on an evening and relax watching the boats come and go. Overall, this property could be so much better given some attention and thought. Location 10/10, cleanliness 3/10.

  Sea Breeze provided a very comfortable base for our stay in Brixham. We were 2 couples visiting friends nearby, and the entire stay was faultless. From the easy and friendly reservation phone call to leaving the property, it went very smoothly. We unloaded the car at the top of the property and easily found parking just one street away. Inside, the house is lovely, fully equipped with top quality furniture and fittings, very clean and comfortable. Outside, there is a selection of sunny sitting areas. The view from the lounge is amazing. We walked everywhere the throughout the weekend - up to Berry Head, and down into town (eating at the Wine Loft and Beamers), and picking up supplies from the high street and the fish market. I appreciated the communication both by phone and email - it was exceptional. Thank you for a lovely, memorable stay.

  As other reviewers have said - be sure to read the listing for Blue Horizon so as not to be surprised on arrival - except perhaps by the simply amazing views from virtually every window which you might not be prepared for.

  The property was originally a fisherman’s cottage, close to the the working harbour - Brixham is still a working fishing port with all the associated sights and sounds that are part of that canvas. Previous comments about the parking are correct - and some cars are not ideally suited to using the space - especially if lower to the ground as there is a danger of scraping the underside of the car. There is either long stay parking (£8.50/24hrs - Sept 21) or free on road parking nearby which we used as do many locals. Arranged over three floors the cottage is well equipped, and proved to be an excellent base from which to explore this part of South Devon - on foot, by sea and by car. The WiFi was excellent and the SmartTV and DVD player were appreciated. There was plenty of hot water for showering, towels were provided.
