We received a warm welcome on arrival. Our room was comfortable and clean with a nice view of garden. Shower was great, top quality towels and toiletries provided. Breakfast was so enjoyable with good choices, including Wendy’s blueberry pancakes which were delicious. Decor throughout was very tasteful and good quality. We would definitely recommend and would certainly stay there in future.

Wow what can I say perfect location and perfect hosts. Our 1st visit to Torquay and we loved our stay. Steve & Wendy are so welcoming and gave great recommendations. Breakfast was really lovely and we could have not chosen a better place to stay. Highly recommend and a cute front garden to relax and watch the sunset. We will be back to stay again soon..
