Reviews for Brookside Guest House
Review 1:Leaving ! But we will be back
Review 2:Everything. The suite we occupied is spacious enough, warm, comfortable and well equipped. Staff lovely and a good variety on the breakfast menu.
Review 3:It was brilliant, the host was amazing, he couldn't do anything more for us as he was so efficient at everything he did. Spotlessly clean, all mod cons, lush! We loved it and will definitely be back. Best B&B we have ever stayed in.
Review 4:Great,friendly,host,the room was spotless..Breakfast were amazing,there is nothing negative with this accommodation..It was just excellent,definitely recommend it..
Review 5:Nothing
Review 6:We stayed at Brookside for two nights & found it to be a very comfortable B&B. The room facilities are excellent well kept & extreamley clean which included a very comfortable double bed & fridge which we found useful.. The breakfast provided was 1st class. Richard was very at-tentative & helpfully at all times without being intrusive. The B&B is a 10 minute walk from the town centre with a very good bus service if desired. It is also a great location for those wishing to use ias a base when travelling around South Devon. The customer service is excellent with tea, coffee & cakes provided on our arrival. We will definitely use this B&B the next time we are visiting Brixham. John & Angela Cirencester.
Review 7:No negatives on this property although size of rooms are on the small size but with every amenity, including slippers and bathrobes
Review 8:Excellent host (Richard) going out of his way to ensure we were comfortable-excellent breakfasts-1st class and very plentiful
Review 9:Atmosphere quite controlled and regimented guesthouse far too warm inspite of fan provided, would have preferred more room than fridge with treats and honesty box!.....bathroom too cramped
Review 10:Beautiful part of the country
Review 11:Room 1 ensuite on the small side
Review 12:Fabulous breakfasts. Friendly helpful hosts. Comfort and attention to details. Lovely garden and sunhouse for relaxing in
Review 13:Nothing!
Review 14:Richard and Julie were excellent hosts. Accommodation was spotless, Good variety of food and drink for breakfast and generous portions. Comfortable beds. Lots of little extras in room. 10 min walk into Brixham
Review 15:Nothing.
Review 16:The house & room is very clean. The room (we stayed in room 3) deserves to be described as luxurious and far exceeds many hotel standards. The breakfast was delicious with a good choice. Richard & Julie are lovely hosts. We would stay again.
Review 17:Julie and Richard are great hosts, always friendly and helpful. Lovely touch was a card and chocolates once they knew it was our anniversary. Breakfast is superb !
Review 18:The breakfasts are superb with an excellent choice all freshly cooked to order. Beautifully presented and simply delicious. This is a very special guest house run by a delightful couple. We loved it!
Review 19:The friendly welcome and the little extras which make any holiday special. The choice and quality of the breakfast was excellent - a joyous start to any day.
Review 20:Very welcoming hosts, nothing was too much trouble. As I was very tall they upgraded us to a larger room at no extra cost. Breakfasts were 4*. My wife had a Reiki massage which was excellent.
Review 21:The standard of this B & B is second to none. Definitely the best we have ever stayed in. Richard and Julie made every effort to ensure our stay was perfect. Must try Julie's treatments!
Review 22:Absolutely nothing
Review 23:Everything! From basic expectations of a comfortable bed, an effective shower and good food to the not so necessary overall quality of decor, cleanliness, accessories together with the little extra touches - sweets, complimentary chocolates, tuck box with honesty box, fridge with fresh milk and a host that couldn't do enough to ensure the stay was just as we wanted it to be. Breakfast was top class - included everything you could possibly want to choose from and your request taken in advance and cooked fresh while you wait and/or indulge in the other items available. Add to that a treatment room where you could opt for a massage or Reiki treatment and you have the recipe for a most pleasant stay. Will take a lot to beat such quality and recommend wholeheartedly.
Review 24:The cleanest room/accommodation we have stayed in. We loved the extra touches like water, fridge, cake, dressing gowns, toiletries. The room was really modern and bed comfy. Richard and Julie were really helpful and friendly. The best breakfast we have had.

Review 53:Hosts Julie and Richard welcomed us very warmly and we're most attentive and helpful throughout our four day stay. Our suite was ideal and the quality of the breakfasts was outstanding. We were especially impressed with a number of small but significant ways in which Julie and Richard added to the enjoyment of our holiday.
Review 54:Nothing -however best to check if you are 6 foot or above as one of the shower is built under a sloping wall (which isn't the case for the other rooms).
Review 55:Welcoming and friendly hosts, kindly suggested to book us a restaurant as we arrived late. It took us 15min to walk to the harbour from Brookside which is a lovely walk. Very comfy bed, room was very practical despite not being large. The highlight was definitely the breakfast, we were welcomed at a lovely presented table with fresh orange juice and a large choice of delicious home-cooked food. Richard was very knowledgeable about activities and food places in the area which contributed to making our stay really special. Would highly recommend it!
Review 56:Richard & Julie were very friendly. It was a very relaxed holiday and near to all amenities. Breakfast excellent and room beautifully clean. Would definitely recommend to family & friends. We will be back.
Review 57:Holiday frequently undoubtedly this place could not be faulted.
Review 58:Richard and Julie could not be faulted. They are first class hosts.Many extra treats. Food excellent. Bedrooms and bathroom spotlessly clean. Their garden is lovely, so relaxing. A wonderful break Thankyou we will be back.
Review 59:Searching for a B&B on the Internet can sometimes be the same as trying to pick the winning numbers in a lottery. However on a recent short trip to visit Agatha Christie’s home at Greenway we found this absolute gem of a B&B in Brixham. Under the new ownership of Richard & Julie Cooke we (a family of 3 adults) were warmly welcomed by our hosts and shown to very elegant and well-appointed quality rooms with extremely comfortable beds guaranteeing a great night's sleep. The free Wi-Fi was a welcome addition to help with last minute holiday planning ably assisted by Richard with his local knowledge of places to visit and restaurants. The breakfast at the B&B was a delight with a broad menu on offer including local produce freshly cooked to order and served with a bit of style and panache. While we only had a two night stay the area and this B&B in particular has ensured that we will make a return visit!
