Merridale guesthouse
I stayed at the merridale guesthouse for 4 nights whilst on a 4 day getaway in paignton. The room I was in was on the top floor hence had a good view over the park. The bed was comfortable and I slept really well. The room had a small TV and had tea and coffee. The bathroom had the usual facilities you would find in a bathroom, the shower was powerful which was nice. I had a fan also as the temperature was very hot during my stay. Full English breakfast and cereal free which was very nice. Janet and Bryan are very friendly and do their upmost to ensure you're stay is good, highly reccomend ed.

Close to beach and park , parking facilities
Everything ok except for breakfast issues. Was asked what we wanted for breakfast before we even saw the room. Preordering didn't make things go quicker, one of our party was told it would take longer because he had ordered poached egg on his breakfast, and it did. I didn't want cooked the first morning and asked for toast. There was cereal and fruit juice but no yogurt or fruit of any kind,so I literally only had toast! on the second morning I decided to have cooked and was informed she didn't think they had catered for an extra breakfast. The cook said it was ok but she made me feel uncomfortable. I wouldn't return because of the breakfast issues because I don't always know the day before what I would like. Shame really because otherwise it's a great little b&b and very friendly.

Quiet location-walk everywhere.
We enjoyed 3 nights here. The location is quiet and overlooks the park,yet it's walking distance to the beach,restaurants and train and bus stations. The owners are friendly and helpful. The English breakfast will keep you going well into the day.

Top Guest House
We have been 3 times now to Merridale, and as Guest houses go this one is one of the best we have stayed in. The location is great for the beach, the town and all sorts of local entertainment, there are plenty of pubs around and lots of varied places to eat. While Sandra & Mark are at Merridale we will not look to book anywhere else for a stay at Paignton, their hospitality is 1st class and they are always trying to get even better as we have noticed on our 3 visits.

Wonerful. Home from home.
This was my second stay and will continue to do so. Mark and Sandra are wonderful and I was gutted that I didn't get the time to have a good lengthy natter this time. Sausages are still amazing and if nithing else a return visit for them alone is worth the M4!

ANOTHER GREAT STAY AT THE MERRIDALE
This was our second stay at the Merriedale and it was equally as good as the first time. Sandra and Mark really have got everything spot on, from the welcome when you arrive to the goodbye when you leave. This place is immaculately maintained, and cleanliness is second to none. The breakfasts are very good with a variety of cereals, yogurts, juices, toast, tea and coffee and of course the excellent full English which is very well presented. The property is in an excellently location, which includes parking in a very quiet location but littery only 5 minuets from the beach and town centre. The Meriedale has free WIFI which all adds up to a great package at a very reasonable price. Do not hesitate to book this great B&B you will not be disappointed.

An absolute must
Impeccably clean, impeccably friendly and welcoming. Travelling as a single person I didn’t feel uneasy, in fact quite the opposite. Parking was right out front, off road with plenty of local amenities and in a quiet location. Oh and the cooked breakfast was to die for. Although I had read good reviews before booking, if I had really understood how nice the proprietors and my stay would be I would have booked an extra day. I certainly plan returning next year if not this autumn/winter.

We found the hotel to be a very comfortable experience, the owners are very friendly and helpful with an excellent breakfast. Ample free car parking and free Wi-fi . The only thing was the room was a bit small. The hotel was well situated close to beach and town centre..
