We really couldn’t fault our stay. Yes it’s budget but the people, food and comfortable beds bely the price. Don’t even think about, just book and have a wonderful stay!

Stayed in room 415. Pros, lovely uninterrupted views of Paignton Harbour, Brixham, Torquay and Thatchers rock. No matter the weather it is a glorious view, especially at sunrise and sunset.

Joe&Cynthia

Lots to do & great choice of restaurants. Excellent walking trails along the Torbay beach. We walked to Goodrington Beach one afternoon, but our last day was rainy. Still, we took a train to Torquay, explored the town, and returned by public bus.

2/5 - Disappointing

ADR

Took the Round Robin Steam Train, Dart River boat cruise to Totnes, bus back to Paignton. Stream train to Kingswear nice but rest of trip not worth it. Nothing to see on river trip. Walked to Dartmouth Castle but not much there except high fee.
