Our stay at Salmon Leap was truly delightful. The property was well-equipped and incredibly comfortable, providing everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. One of the standout features was the big bifold doors, which were a lovely addition.

While the property met almost all our needs, a downstairs loo would have made it perfect. Would definitely recommend. Hide

We had a lovely stay at Salmon Leap. Very comfortable with everything you could possibly need. Great outside space for a barbecue in the evening and the added bonus of a designated parking space. Just a short stroll to the harbour, not so easy coming back up though. This will be our first choice for our next visit to Brixham.

A fabulous find. Open plan kitchen, dining and living area worked perfectly for Christmas - could cook and be social at the same time. Very spacious, clean and high standard.
