We had a lovely stay thank you. Would stay again. We have friends that live just down the road so it was a good location for us & just a short walk into town & our favorite beer garden at the Prince William.

We had a fabulous stay at Forrest Cove over the Christmas period. The house was decorated very nicely. We cannot fault the cleanliness and facilities. It was a short walk from Brixham Harbour and town. We would highly recommend this house to friends and family and hope to return in the not too distant future.

We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely and well equipped cottage. Comfy beds and a nice deck area to sit out when the weather allowed. The location was great for us, about ten minutes down to the harbour.

We loved the house it was ideal for our stay . Beautiful views from the living room ,all nicely maintained and spotlessly clean . Issues if you struggle with steps ,steep up to the top bedroom and to the sitting area outside.Great location in Brixham very convenient for the town but parking is hard in high season .

Lovely house, great location, a very short stroll from the harbour, comfortable in every way. Loved the view from the swivel chair in the bay window- one way was Hollywood hills, the other way was Torbay! Fantastic walks in both directions and the sea was lovely for a dip.

My family & I really enjoyed our stay over Christmas. The house was lovely & warm. The downstairs shower is heaven. If I was going to be pedantic, cooking scales a pastry brush & a bluetooth speaker for the kitchen diner would have made it a home from home. No provision for recycling as the waste is commercially collected. Parking is at a premium.
