Perfect place for break

What a fabulous stay we had here. The owners made us feel so welcome and the hotel has character and the room was comfy and spotless. The breakfast was also v impressive with a range of juices and lovely yogurt and fruit as well as your usual cooked breakfast (gluten free toast available too!) If we are back in Torquay we would definitely stay here again! Almost forgot the bar is cosy with comfy chairs and bar stools and a great range of local and popular gins!

Stedet er utrolig hyggeligt og autentisk, med virkelig god og lækker morgenmad. Lille pool og udendørs spa er skønt efter en lang dag med vandreture, som området indbyder til. Værterne er meget imødekomne og gæstfrie. Lokalområdet er indbydende og stille, trods den tætte beliggenhed ift. centrum.

Absolutely a great hotel

Absolutely brilliant place to stay the family could not do enough for any of their guests. Our room was very clean and the bed was so comfortable we had a great night sleep. Tea and coffee making facilities in our room which was great also their was a well stocked bar I loved the bay cider.It was really good having a swimming pool and jacuzzi to sit around and relax on a hot day like we did. The breakfast is amazing theirs a menu to choose from and also a buffet with fresh fruit and cereals and yogurt. The hotel is 10 minutes walk from the town centre down one road.Jackie Nick and Pippa are great host we loved staying there so much we have booked to go back in 5 weeks time and we can not wait.
