Simply the best!!
Gorgeous house with stunning features. Rooms are well appointed and immaculately clean. Nothing is too much trouble, we would heartily recommend Harmony House. Its peaceful and relaxing, a short walk from the bay and attractions. The hosts Michelle and Paul are welcoming and professional. We would love to return .....

A fabulous B&B
Our hosts Michelle & Jamie were very welcoming. Our room was ready before the check-in time & we were offered a choice of rooms when we arrived. Breakfast was excellent, with plenty of choice, along with a vegetarian option. The information folder gave great options for days out, eating & much more which was really helpful, along with personal recommendations from Michelle & Jamie. All in all, a lovely place to stay

Travelling for work and I had the place to myself due to the pandemic. Felt a bit guilty for putting out the owner, Michelle, just for me but she was very welcoming. I travel quite a bit for work and when you stay in an independent guest house, it can be a bit hit and miss, but I felt immediately comfortable here. The room was well appointed and spotlessly clean, the breakfast was good and they have a well stocked ‘honesty’ bar with reasonable prices. Recommend

Home From Home.
Booked three days at this guest house, was welcomed by James who checked us in and showed us to our room, we booked the superior double it was very spacious, had all your stuff like kettle tea/coffee, free bottles of water. Also some special touches like cotton wool balls, s/poo, s/cap, tissues, lavender sleep spray mist, and a lovely cooling fan which to say we used every night. The tv has a lot of channels to choose from plus you even have an alarm clock. The bathroom is lovely with a good shower and lovely fresh towels. Our bed was made everyday so was lovely coming back to it all made. James and Michelle have done a wonderful job here, and will definitely be back when in the area again, hopefully not too long. Keep up the great work and see you all very soon.x

Dear Eileen, I do wish that guests would check what they are booking before making a reservation. You requested a twin room that clearly states with a shower en-suite. However upon arrival you asked for a room with a bath. We upgraded you for free to our largest King Room with a bath. With regards to the bed, you talked at length about for fully adjustable electric bed that you have at home in Canada. Sorry, 4 star B&Bs in the UK aren't quite there yet. Thanks for the positive comments but perhaps a 5 star boutique B&B would have been more suited to your needs for your next one-night stay.

This is a wonderful guesthouse. Rick and Able are so welcoming and nothing is to much trouble. Ricks mom was also lovely and friendly. It was our anniversary and they made it special for both of us. The breakfast is first class with top quality ingredients. The town centre is in walking distance, an ideal location. Looking forward to going back.

Fabulous
A fabulous, quaint B&B, The couple who own it are very welcoming and cannot do enough for you. Breakfast was amazing, a large variety and the cooked breakfast was delicious. It's a short walk, roughly 10 minutes into Torquay town, where you will find lots of bars and restaurants. We will definitely be returning to the Harmony. 10/10.

The staff were so friendly and went out there way to make you feel comfortable through things such as a free nightcap before bed, lovely breakfast etc The room was lovely with again free little bits like sweets, was clean and had a tv with a DVD player in ( you could also get DVDs to watch in there little guest room where you could also buy drinks and play games). It is also just a short walk to the beach, shops and other things such as golf and a leisure Center :) I definitely recommend to others!

Best in toquay
An excellent hotel, relaxing, quite and very clean. A nice breakfast including a vegetarian option. Monica and Hans the owners were a delight, they went out of their way to ensure you enjoyed your stay. Ask for a rear room its really quite, had a good sleep, comfy bed. Ideal location for visiting area, Paignton Zoo, Plymouth shopping, model village, and local scenery. Ten/fifteen minutes walk from beach and town centre. Close location, but quite away from any night life. Definitly a hotel to stay, we will be back.

Nachdem wir London und Fallmouth bereist haben, war Torquay unser nächstes Ziel. Mit dem Harmony Guest House haben wir eine tolle Unterkunft gefunden. Vom freundlichen Empfang und der Begleitung während des Aufenthaltes waren wir begeistert. Die Zimmer sind sehr angenehm eingerichtet, wir haben sehr gut übernachtet. Das Frühstück und auch die Bar haben den Aufenthalt abgerundet. Absolut zu empfehlen.
