We had a superb time. Top notch hosts and staff, nothing was too much trouble. Breakfasts were brilliant. Parking a little cramped. We'll be visiting again for sure.

A lovely hotel with some of the nicest hosts I've met; Paul and Sarah were very welcoming, friendly, and accommodating. They were also very knowledgeable about the area, transport and local attractions. The location is a lovely spot, literally a stone's throw from a beach and a very nice restaurant (Harbour Light), and a few minutes walk to other attractions (the town centre with arcades and gift shops, Splashdown Waterpark), and a short train or car journey to Torquay and Babbacombe. The room was very comfortable, homely and welcoming seaside atmosphere without being tacky. Breakfast was lovely
