- Evidence: 2 pet-mention guest reviews sourced from major booking platforms - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.

Pet-friendly summary
Old Mill Court is a charming mews house tucked just off Bolton Street in the heart of Brixham, and it works well as a dog-friendly base for a couple who want to be within easy walking distance of the harbour, shops and coast. It is a whole-house rental with its own parking, so you have the place to yourselves and somewhere to leave the car - handy in a busy harbour town.
Dogs are accepted for a fee of £35 per pet per stay, and the owners ask that you let them know in advance if you are bringing a dog. Guests travelling with dogs have found the house a good size and perfectly located for exploring Brixham on foot, with the town's dog-friendly corners and coast path all close by.
There is one important caveat to weigh, though. The property has no enclosed garden or courtyard, and a guest who arrived with a dog expecting one felt it made the house less dog-friendly than they had hoped. If your dog is happy pottering indoors and heading straight out on the lead for walks, that may not matter - but if you rely on a secure outdoor space for quick toilet breaks or letting a dog off the lead, this is not the property for that. The parking space is also tight, so a larger car can be awkward to manoeuvre.
Old Mill Court suits an easy-going, lead-walked dog whose owners want a central Brixham base and don't need a private garden. The pet feedback is mixed - warm on location and size, but clear that there is no enclosed outdoor space - so weigh that up honestly and confirm the current pet terms with the owners when you book.
