Guests say

Midhurst cottage in Brixham is generally praised for its spaciousness, comfortable furnishings, and convenient location within walking distance to the harbour. While some guests encountered issues with cleanliness and maintenance, the majority enjoyed their stay, highlighting the property's suitability for large groups and families, and its proximity to local attractions.

Most guests found the property clean and comfortable, but there were some concerns regarding mould and dust. These issues seem isolated but did impact the experience for those guests.

The location is highly praised for being within walking distance of Brixham harbour and convenient for public transport, making it an ideal base for exploring Devon.

Guests generally found the property comfortable, with ample space and comfy beds. However, some noted that the garden furniture was insufficient for larger groups.

The property is well-equipped for large groups, but some guests felt the kitchen was too small and lacked sufficient utensils and fridge space for the number of guests it accommodates.

There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

  • Sally

    A damp house with no means of drying clothes. Broken toilet. Owner did offer to reimburse launderette charges but we were reluctant to spend our holiday in a launderette. We left a day early and would not return to this property. It was however very clean.

  • Elizabeth Joan

    The property is well equipped, comfortable, within easy walking distance of Brixham town and on an excellent bus route.

  • Catherine

    There was space for us all to spend time together but also room for some quiet time when needed. It was only a short walk to the main shopping street and the Marina. The housekeeper met us on arrival and showed us around, she was very helpful and friendly and we had contact details if needed. We had a very enjoyable stay at Midhurst and would certainly consider booking again for another family holiday in the future.
