Polly’s place is a very special house. The views from
The terrace are just ‘Wow’
The facility’s are great, you have everything you need.
It is clean inside and like a home from home feel. It’s stunning!
The location is amazing we’ve been coming to Brixham for years and this house is perfect to explore it.
There is a few issues I want to raise.
We couldn’t find the plug to the vacuum cleaner to charge the battery. When we went to use it, the hand held vacuum cleaner wasn’t charged. Having twin girls with us and a dog, it wouldn’t been ideal to be able to use it for crisp explosions and pet hair.
The bed on the first floor bedroom with the double bed needs a new mattress. You can feel the springs through it. We woke up with terrible back ache.
The window in the same bedroom is broken too and we had to change the light bulb as when it turned dark, the light wouldn’t work. The bin issue is a tricky one, we would have liked to be able to recycle as we have quite a big family. When the bins were emptied, they were full again upon our check out due to us having boxes and food waste. It says in the guest book to just bin all bottles and card into the red sacks. Seems a shame really.
The decking area outside wasn’t clean, I had to swill it down as there was some animal waste there. We have a dog ourselves and would never leave anything that would smell especially in a home that isn’t ours. The decking is looking tired, I know it’s by the sea and the elements are not kind in winter months to decking but there is a hole where a tree stump has been, it’s not very safe and a bit of a sight. The decking hasn’t been brushed prior to our stay so there was dog hair from past stays and bits of material from the gulls on it.
The front door area hasn’t been brushed for some time either.
For anyone staying in the living room at the back with the blue pull out bed, there is no blind on that window so you wouldn’t be able to sleep past 4am in there as it goes light in the summer months.
Little things and attention to detail really do go a long way and could make this special place such a more memorable stay especially with the price that is paid during the height of summer.

Love this place - we've been coming for years as a family so it's like a home from home! Great location above the harbour with lovely views from the rooms and terrace. It's not a 'perfect' house which I think some of these reviews expect: it's a modernised fisherman's cottage with all it's quirks and foibles! Built into a harbourside cliff and designed to be travelled to by donkey! :D But that's the character of the place and it's authentically Brixham. The house is quiet, comfortable and the patio is a wonderful place to drink your morning coffee and watch the harbour. (And the weather is always nice!)
The windows need attention: we had to stand on chairs to close them each time and it took two of us (but we are short!). The one in the bedroom particularly is very heavy and 'drops' very quickly if you are not careful: mind your fingers!

Wonderful views
2 nice lounges
Well equipped
The access could have been described more fully. The Broad Steps came as a shock.
The rubbish bin collection was difficult as both bins were already full and no spare red sack
