Spacious town house with commanding views over all of Torbay.
The View is a spacious town house with panoramic coastal views of Brixham and the whole of Torbay. The property boasts sea views from 3 of the bedrooms as well as the terrace which is a fantastic viewing spot from which to watch all manner of boats and trawlers head out to see. At certain times of the year its possible to see dolphins in the bay and the resident seals in the harbour are easy to spot year round.

Property was comfortable and clean. Stairs are rather steep so not for someone with problems walking.Location of house beautiful views around the bay. As high up with wonderful views it keeps you fit to walk back from the harbour and shops only 10-15 minutes BBQ and fire pit available,
Great stay for a couple of days catching up with friends.
Location and view amazing, accommodation clean and beds very comfortable.
We very much enjoyed our break.
Great house in a great location. Bedrooms were of a good size. House well equipped. View's were stunning. Communication from host was great. Would definitely stay again.
The house was fabulous , spacious and clean. The beds were already made up and there were plenty of towels .This was a nice surprise as we read that we had to take our own .The lower stairs aren't suitable for toddlers or people with poor mobility ..Paul the owner was easy to contact .The views are spectacular spectacularspectaculaspvery easysuit

Amazing views, spacious and clean house
Easy to deal with the owner, the views are amazing, a few minutes walk to the harbour, clean and well presented
Lovely stay, steep stairs would be difficult with young children or older people but we were fine. 6 minutes walk to harbour with lots of dining and drinking. We all had a fabulous time here.
We’re here for a long weekend break with the close family. The Property looks small until you get inside - it’s huge, modern but keeping its quaintness - warm, clean and in a great setting. Fantastic views of Brixham Harbour and Torbay. The kids loved it - Will be back.
What a find! We had a wonderful time, the location of this property is perfect with amazing views and a short walk to the harbour side. The property is well stocked and we were able to park right outside. The stairs down to the kitchen area are very steep which might be of consideration to elderly or very young visitors. Would highly recommend
Nice property, some parking available on the street but may be harder in the summer months. Nice size for all of us to fit in and the downstairs room, kitchen diner was good for socialising. The steps down to the kitchen are steep and may cause issues for people with mobility issues or little kids but all good for us.
Brilliant stay, views amazing, stairs very steep so not suitable for people with mobility issues. Host extremely helpful would definitely recommend to friends and family. If you want an excellent meal go to The Prince William across the harbour.
The house was very large and suited out larger family
Needs . Wonderful scenic views of the harbour and very quiet and peaceful. It wasn’t easy to get parked near the house and it was a busy season, so that’s understandable.
Overall we had a really nice time.
Stayed over the New year, great property for a group of 7. Fantastic views over the harbour and quiet location. Easy access to the restaurants, steep walk but only takes 5mins. Parking was ok despite being in 2 cars, managed to park less than 100 yards away. Great comms from the owner with super clear instructions.
Amazing views and a 10 minute walk down to the harbour. Lots of large green open spaces great for the dog within seconds of the front door. Very handy having a parking space behind the chain link fence because the road is busy. Overall loved the holiday and will never forget those views. Thank you.
Fabulous views from this property which was chosen to suit a family of 10, 3 generations, and our dog. There was everything we needed and more. Limited street parking immediately outside but don’t let this put you off as plenty further up the street just a short walk away. We were lucky enough to see seals and dolphins. Great communication from our helpful host
Brixham is beautiful.
The property has amazing views.
Shower over bath, ok ISH, but the tap leaks. It also leaks in the kitchen.
No recycling and the outside bin was full to the brim.
We paid extra £100 for linen and was expected to strip beds on vacating.
Think this is a bit much to ask when you have to vacate at 9.30am and the fact we paid extra £100 for this service.
The stairs are extremely steep, but you are advised about that.
Having said that. Paul the host and VRBO were very helpful.
Brixham is such a lovely place and the views especially at night,were just lovely.

Had a great time in Brixham
House was in a great location, just a few minutes' walk from the centre of Brixham, though the journey back up the hill takes a little longer! Being able to park for free nearby was a real boon. Views from the rear patio were as good as you could get anywhere and the nine of us were very comfortable.
Paul was extremely flexible with check in and check out times, which was much appreciated.
I would recommend the property for a large group, though the interior was a bit dated and best described as 'functional' in places. It was clean enough for our group and had everything we needed.

Disliked: Communication
Owner cancelled when they realised we had booked for the Pirate festival. Said he was having builders in, this didnt appear to be true when we went to look at the house
Very nice and clean, modern kitchen and bathroom. Great views and good location. Good wifi and kitchen supplies, and kids games.
Poor TV aerial, no wardrobe in 4 rooms. No hangers anywhere. No bins in any toilets. We found cloths belonging to others in drawers. Steep stairs are ok for young adults but not for elderly.
Lovely cottage with amazing views over the harbour
Lovely cottage with all mod cons spread over 4 floors. We explored the area with very little driving. Within 10 mins walk is the beautiful Fishcombe Cove, at the bottom of Battery Gardens. The museum was a small gem, with very helpful guides. Free entry on 3 afternoons a week. Other places to visit include Greenway House, Berry Head and Totnes. There is much more but we ran out of time.
Parking is in the roadside, we had 3 cars and always found a spot easily within 2 mins walk and often much closer. Park almost opposite was great to exercise the dog in the early morning and late at night. 5 min walk into town, probably nearer 10 min as it's a steep hill.
The cottage itself iscompactGo down to the main living space with up to date kitchen with all that we needed to cater for ourselves. Large fridge with freezer under, cooker and hob, dishwasher and washing machine. Tea towels and dishcloths provided.
