Room was really clean and nice, perfect for what I needed. Facilities were great and I had everything I needed for a couple of nights. Owners were fantastic hosts, kind and professional, and the breakfast was brilliant.
There is nothing I disliked.

Tina and Arthur made me feel really welcome in their lovely home and are so friendly and helpful.The bedroom and bathroom were both spotless and the bed was really comfy. Nothing was too much trouble. Tina even offered to make me a sandwich for my trip home. They have a great knowledge of the area which was great, as it was my first visit to Torquay.

The guest house was in easy walking distance to the train station and very quiet. We were greeted by Tina who was very cheerful and friendly and very accommodating. Our room was lovely and comfortable with its own little seating and tv area. It also had a fridge with a proper bottle of milk for the tea/coffee in the room which was a nice touch.The breakfast was freshly cooked with lots of choice and filled us up for the day. There was a small seating area with snacks/coffee machine for extras during the day. We were made to feel very welcome.

Warm welcome on arrival. Comfortable, spacious and quiet single room with plenty of storage, a small fridge, hairdryer, Freeview TV and tea & coffee making facilities (hot chocolate available from a machine downstairs for £1). Shower with plentiful hot water although not the strongest water pressure. Supplied toiletries included shower gel, shampoo, cotton buds and a shower cap. All kept very clean with the room being refreshed daily. An iron and board were available for use in an adjacent room. Unfortunately I was not offered a cooked breakfast since I needed to leave relatively early for work. This is only available between 08:30-09:30 so instead I had my daily breakfast tray in the room, encompassing various fruits, cereal, packaged pastries, some yoghurt and orange juice. The owners were accommodating of this without any bother and the tray was always there waiting for me when I returned in the evening. There was also a snacks area in the downstairs lobby, with an honesty bar for soft drinks and confectionery.
It was a pleasant and comfortable stay with little to dislike, but it certainly would've been nice to have had the full breakfast. I didn't see the owners again at any point after check-in but had been advised that this would likely be the case and it didn't bother me since I was travelling for work therefore not in need of any particular input from them (about places to eat/visit etc).

Breakfast was excellent with a great choice for all appetites and dietary needs. A very quiet location which wasn't to far from the town or seafront.

The room was spotless. The hosts had thought of everything possible to make your stay comfortable. I liked the idea of a mini fridge and also a sitting area in the room. The breakfast was stunning and the hosts couldn't have been more accomodating..
There wasn't anything not to like.

The bedroom size,view bed comfort and cleanliness.We were provided with lots of towels a small fridge with fresh milk and water.
The breakfast has a good selection of cereal,fruit,yoghurt and a cooked meal.
They were understanding of our needs and the service was good.
I would have liked more space for parking ok if leaving your car for the stay but awkward if you need to come and go.

Location is good, fine to walk to town and close to Torre Abbey. Breakfast is good; service with a smile and with a good level of information not to much but just right. I’d go back 😊
I’m being picky, the internal doors aren’t that nice. That’s about it
