Not happy at all. Breakfast slot very limited, no options or whatsoever. Central heating was not working, WiFi as well. Shower cold. Never coming back. For this price - very disappointed.

Stayed last month for 3 nights. Room 19. Small room, very small bathroom & the shower was so small that we were hitting the walls with elbows & I am a size 12 ! Window had been painted shut so could only open the bottom & that led straight onto a flat roof so became a security risk. Furniture old & worn. Breakfast was good

Nothing to complain about. All excellent from owner, staff and accommodation. There are more expensive places to stay in Torquay that wont make you feel welcome and comfortable.

Nearing the end of my weeks stay and I can honestly say that I will be back next year. Very comfortable bedroom with good size ensuite. Owner and staff very friendly and attentive. Great pool with plenty of outdoor seating as well. Excellent unlimited breakfast , veggie sausages on request. I have found it a quiet, relaxing hotel which is just what I wanted. I have slept extremely well every night and will be sorry to leave.

Lovely little hotel. Very clean with a lovely full English breakfast including cereals. The gardens are every bit as good as the photos and Liza , the host, is extremelt friendly. Don't take any notice of the negative comments on here as it pretty much BS. The only thing i would say on a slight negative note is that the bathroom in our bedroom was a bit compact. We stayed in room 22. Other than that its superb.

What a rude disorganized so called bed and breakfast...the host lisa had double booked our room which was booked and deposit paid months ago...she blamed it on booking.com saying she had no control of the bookings...my elderly mother and I could not unpack after a long drive as being moved the following day. Locked out of hotel...no one on reception to answer the door...hotel guest answered the door.
.waited...half an hour for lisa to appear to give us new keys to our room...she accused us of being trouble makers and not accepting it was her fault that the booking was mismanaged by her. To be
