• "The property was lovely inside and had everything inside for our stay and complex was lovely it was a shame the pool had closed."

  The only problem which needs addressing is locking patio door problem with locking was inside and outside.

• "This property may be small, but it is very comfy and well equipped."

  It was spotlessly clean and well furnished. Brixham is a shortish walk along the cliffs and it is absolutely delightful. Can't wait to go back!

  Thank you for your lovely feedback. I’m delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Egret. It certainly is a great location for exploring the coast and enjoying all that Brixham has to offer. Property Owner

• "The site was perfect, close to Brixham but not to close."

  The accommodation although only one bedroom was more than big enough. Although tidness is essential!. The accommodation is also very well stocked with all equipment needed.

• "Egert was compact but perfect for one person, its well equipped and easy to get your bags loaded and unloaded, especially if you arrived/leaving on a rainy day."

  I'd read reviews about the smell from drains in the property, but never experienced this even when you could smell the drains when in the car park. Also, some saying its noisy as its next to the car park, which isn't entirely true. There are some car park spaces next to Egert and yes I heard cars but nothing to write home about, I heard more noise on the Saturday night from the Caravan site clubhouse behind! But even that wasn't an issue, as it went quiet after about 11.30pm. Having the pool was lovely, I was lucky to have it all to myself every evening as I think most people used it earlier in the day. The view from the pool out to sea was stunning! The gentleman who was looking after the pool and site maintenence was very friendly and The Cove was very well kept. Beautiful views and so peaceful. Egert does sadly lack that uninterrupted view due to its position, you do get a little view, but it just meant I had to go walking around The Cove and into Brixham to enjoy a better view, which wasn't a bad thing for me. The only reason I haven't given 5 stars to comfort is that I found the settee a little uncomfortable. The cushions were no help either to squish in behind me, as they appeared to be feather and I'm sure my itchy eyes were a reaction to them. I also think the bathroom could benefit from a little storage cupboard next to or under the sink, but you can easily manage without. Cleanliness inside the property and on site was 5 star, the reason for only 4 stars was the large amount of cobwebs on the outside furniture and decking. Too many to have appeared in the time from the previous guests leaving to me arriving on the day. First impression from the outside wasn't what you get inside.

  Hello Thank you for your feedback. It is really helpful to me to enhance my guests’ experience. Since your visit, I have had the outside area repainted and I am replacing the garden furniture next weekend. The soft furnishings will be renewed, without the feathers. I do hope you will come to stay again. Property Owner

• "We had a lovely stay at the Egret, this is a true hidden gem!"

  The whole place was spotless & in such a beautiful setting. We had everything we could need to make it a home from home, even a dishwasher. We didn't need to use our car at all whilst staying. We walked along the coastal path to Brixham everyday where you can get about by bus or boat. We would highly recommend staying here, thankyou for a wonderful holiday!

  Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. I do take great care of Egret and try to make sure it has every convenience for my guests to have an enjoyable holiday. It makes it all worthwhile when this is appreciated. Property Owner

• "Yes re holiday property: lovely cozy chalet, would recommend, enjoyed the stay very much."

  We stayed during the week of the water issue with South West Water, and wondered if there would be any compensation due to this? Many thanks

  Thank you for your feedback. I am delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Egret. I have taken up your question of compensation from South West Water with the property management company who look after The Cove. There is only one account and one water supply to all the properties at The Cove and it is expected that there will be one compensation payment of £115 for the whole site. The Directors will decide how to deal with this. If you have suffered a loss due to the situation and have holiday insurance, you may be able to make a claim. Property Owner

  Ideal for a couple and well equipped for a comfortable stay. Even in February the property was nice and cosy.

  Thank you for your lovely feedback. I’m delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Egret, as my first guests of 2024. It is in a perfect location, right on the coastal footpath, if you enjoy walking. Property Owner

• "A delightful apartment, beautifully clean and well equipped, in a pleasant gated development just a short walk from Brixham."

  A great location for exploring the delights of the Devon coast. The only problem was the presence of feather cushions, (like many, I am seriously allergic), so had a couple of uncomfortable days until these were removed. All in all, a great holiday, and would love to return in the future.

  Thank you for your feedback and the positive comments about Egret and the location. I have taken on board your comments on the feather cushions and, I will have them replaced when the property is redecorated at the end of this month. I hope you will return in the future. Property Owner

  Kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans and gadgets so we could cook in if we wanted. Lots of leaflets for local takeaways. Informative information folder. Good parking. Great base for either a walking holiday as lots of walks close by. Numerous places to visit in Devon/Cornwall. We would visit again.

• "One of the best places me and my partner have stayed at, clean and well managed, in fact a place I'd like as my home, the one and only drawback to us was, because my wife suffers a mobility problem, we could have done with the car space being closer to the property, in fact it was the worst space possible, in a corner difficult to drive into, even though there were cars parked each side of the property we were in, but otherwise, well done everyone for making it a great holiday."

  Thank you for the lovely feedback. I’m so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Egret. I hope you will stay again? The car parking spaces are allocated to each property and the ones near Egret belong to other apartments, I inherited the corner space. If you do visit again, one of the visitors’ spaces might be easier. Property Owner

• "On initial inspection all looked clean the apartment was smaller than it looked on the photos."

  The bedroom window you couldn't see out for cobwebs we ended up cleaning it as we wanted the window open. Overall it was a great place to lay your head. It had everything you needed although I never cooked once! Great location.

  Thank you for your feedback, I will definitely pass this on to my cleaners, the last thing you should be doing on holiday is housework. I’m really pleased to see you didn’t do any cooking, with so many great restaurants in the area, you don’t need to. I hope you will return. Property Owner

• "Everything you would need for a couples getaway provided."

  Great location for travelling around Torbay area and beyond. Unfortunately the entertainment from the neighbouring holiday park was rather loud every night which could be something to bare in mind if you are looking to make the most of your time away with early mornings. Otherwise, would recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area and will definitely be back.

  Thank you for your lovely feedback about Egret. It is a great area to use as a base for travels around Torbay. I am sorry that the entertainment on the neighbouring site was noisy, it’s usually quieter outside of the school holidays. I truly hope it won’t put you off returning. Property Owner

• "The bungalow had everything necessary for the vacation stay in a small area."

  Washing machine and dishwasher were easy to use. Unfortunately there was no radio. The toilet paper holder was still loose despite the evaluation notes in advance. The freezer compartment of the fridge was not defrosted so there was hardly any space for frozen goods. Unfortunately there was no open sea view when sitting on the small terrace. The other bungalows were in front of it. The parasol and chairs seen in the photos fell victim to a storm. There are 2 wicker chairs and a shelf available for this purpose. The bungalow is in close proximity to parking lots. There was a bit of noise associated with the arrival and departure of cars in the morning hours. There wasn't much storage space for luggage. We were able to put our 2 suitcases in a small closet-like recessed wall in the bedroom. On the day of departure you have to leave the bungalow by 9 a.m. 10:00 a.m. or 11:00 a.m. would have been nicer. The couch is not in the middle of the room as you can see in the pictures, but on the left on the wall and next to it is the dining table. This also seems better for the division in the room. The holiday was otherwise very nice in this tranquil place, especially since you had the opportunity to walk directly to Brixham within about 20 minutes.

• "Lovely position, very easy walk into Brixham."

  Accommodation very well equipped. Only slight issue was a smell of drains in the toilet, came and went but quite strong at times. Would definitely stay there again

  I am delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Egret and I hope you will visit again. The drainy smell seems to be linked to when the wind is coming from the North East, which is why it comes and goes. To be absolutely sure there isn't an underlying issue, I have asked for it to be checked out at the next changeover. Property Owner

• "Egret is an ideal size for 2 people , we did notice a couple of places where the paintwork on the walls could do with a touch up and the top of one of the set of drawers in the bedroom could do with refreshing ( IMO ) , very quiet at night which was nice."

  The only real fault I can find and it's not really to do with the property itself is that if you have any mobility issues it may not be ideal as there is a steep upward hill up to the road if you want to walk into Brixham that way and there is quite a steep climb down if you would prefer to go the coastal path way but either way I would definitely recommend getting taxis back as its to much to walk , there isn't a great deal to do in the area where egret is so you will need to go into Brixham most days to either spend it there or to commute to other places if your like me and don't want to be driving everywhere but all in all we enjoyed our stay.

  Thank you for your feedback. I am pleased you enjoyed your stay at Egret. I have made a note of the paintwork and the set of drawers and will add this to the end of season maintenance. Property Owner

• "We had a lovely time however …."

  .The outdoor heated swimming pool was closed… we were looking forward to that . The bathroom and sometimes the bedroom smelt of blocked drains and when we went to use the hoover it was full and needed emptying. Obviously we would have liked to have known about the pool before we booked … can you please respond to us … thank you

  Hello Paul I appreciate you taking the time to feedback. Sorry to hear that you did not realise the pool would be closed. It is mentioned in the property details as “use of a heated outdoor swimming pool during the season” it’s open from May to October. I am checking with the site Caretaker to make sure there isn’t an issue with the drainage on site. My apologies for the vacuum cleaner being full, that is annoying when you are on holiday and I will follow up to make sure it is checked at each changeover. My phone number is in the property information folder and I would have tried to resolve the two latter issues for you, had I known about them, last week. I hope they didn’t spoil your stay too much and, perhaps, you will come back again, to use the pool in the summer? Property Owner

  Fridge was very loud, especially at night. It was a good base to stay and go out from, which we did every day. Lovely walk into Brixham through the Battery Gardens and lots to do and see around there too. Would have liked to use the pool, but it was always busy, mainly with kids, so didn't get chance to do this. But we had a very enjoyable week, with great weather too. We would love to go again.
