Very good breakfast and exceptional staff. Even though the building is old, it is immaculate and very clean. The bathroom looked to have been very recently redone. Lack of parking isn't really an issue, it is the same all over in Brixham. It is possible to park free in Higher Manor Road behind the hotel, but even so, the car parks are very reasonable. Would highly recommend and will be back again if we are in the area.
United KingdomWe really enjoyed our 3 day stay at Smugglers Haunt, the staff were friendly, breakfast was perfect, our room was very clean and comfy and it was in perfect position to the harbour. Will definitely stay again!
United KingdomThe room was spacious and spotlessly clean. The welcome was friendly and efficient. The breakfast came fast and was hot. and tasty.

United KingdomGreat location Attentive & friendly staff Great Breakfast If parking overnight would recommend the long stay car park just past the fish market £8.50 for 24 hours.
United KingdomGreat location with easy access to the harbour. Property’s quite quirky, small corridors and tight stairways but what do you expect from a smugglers haunt!!!! We were a couple of hours late for check in but this didn’t affect a warm welcome. Owner couldn’t have been more helpful during our stay. Superb breakfast and the staff were all helpful and courteous.Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends.
United KingdomProperty found easily enough. Check in was quick, room was clean and tidy and big enough for the two of us. Breakfast was nice and hot and freshly cooked. Plenty of choice on the breakfast menu.

The Smugglers Haunt is now under new ownership. Whilst we are currently running as a bed & breakfast only we will be re-opening the bar and restaraunt as asoon as we are able. We have 14 en-suite bedrooms of various sizes over two floors. Parts of the building can be dated back to the mid 1600's and has iver its history been a boarding house, a Carpenters and Coffin shop and later a dairy. The famous Brixham Smuggler Bob Elliott is also known to have resided here . This is a vibrant town which draws young and old back every year. We have been lucky enough to have many familiar faces stay here year after year. What you will get here is a friendly welcome, clean bedroom and a good breakfast.
Our main industry in Brixham is fishing and we are one of the busiest ports in Europe. There is always something going on here from Regattas, Pirate Festivals, Heritage Weeks and Food Fests to name but a few. These events draw thousands of people to Brixham every year and every Summer there are not enough rooms to cope with it all. This is a vibrant town which draws young and old back every year. We have been lucky enough to have many familiar faces stay here year after year.
