An outstanding bed and breakfast. Everything was very clean thought through and done meticulously. The breakfasts were delicious. Charlie and Julie-Anne were helpful and friendly. It was however a 20min walk (mainly flat), to the main waterfront Cafe/restaurant/marina area. Parking in front of the property was easy. The air conditioning in our room was a god send. Definitely highly recommended.

I would recommend Briarfields when staying in Torquay. The room is just as it is in the website photos. The whole place is spotless and everything you need for a short stay is provided. Breakfast is delicious with plenty of choice and the little extra pastry for afters is a lovely touch. Charlie and Julie-Ann couldn’t be more helpful. Their restaurant recommendations are spot on. Julie-Ann recommended Cockington when we said we were going for a walk and she wasn’t wrong as it is well worth a visit. I would definitely stay here again.

One of the best places - the subtle details and the very thoughtful touches created an incredible sense of delight. The hosts thought of everything, literally everything (thank you for the champagne glasses!). The attention to details was amazing. A fantastic Bed and Breakfast, very clean, and the breakfasts were incredible. Julie-Anne and Charlie, thank you so much!

What a lovely place! Spotless, well appointed room with simple, fresh decor. Bathroom also nicely done, with fabulous fluffy towels. Breakfast was super tasty with a great selection of options. And the hosts are really lovely; helpful and friendly without being overly attentive. Not far from either Torquay and Torre stations so great for those not using a car, though parking was also available. Highly recommend and will be staying again next time I’m down in Torquay.

Modern B&B in a history house. The room was large enough with a comfy bed, modern bathroom/shower, and a mini fridge available. Reasonable walking distance to the restaurants, waterfront in Torquay.

The perfect B&B…. The owners were lovely, room was spacious with everything you need and more, including a mini fridge & 2 tv’s! The food was outstanding with lots to choose from including a lovely Spanish breakfast which hubby loved. Everything was spotlessly clean could not fault anything.

We've stayed in Torquay 2-3 times, and this B&B is outstanding. I've traveled a significant amount all over the world and this is the best B&B I've stayed in. Charlie and Julie are lovely, lovely people and it felt like we were being invited into their home. It's convenient, wonderfully clean, the breakfasts are outstanding and get the day off to a great start. We will be back next year!

An excellent 3 day stay away at the Briarfields

Charlie and Julie-Ann made the experience at The Briarfields relaxing and very welcoming during our 3 day stay. The room was superb, spotless and clean with a comfortable bed. Charlie is a superb cook and takes pride in his culinary skills. The breakfast was excellent supported by Julie Anne. We felt very welcome and at ease and would recommend others to stay at The Briarfields which is an easy walk to the harbour and other amenities.

A very positive experience

Can't fault this lovely B&B in any way. It's clean, nicely laid out, and the owner is a real gent. He helped me with my kit from the van, made a lovely breakfast and was professional and friendly. The room was quiet, has everything you need and the decor is simple and modern throughout. This B&B offers very good value for money when considering the service I received. Top place!

What a superb find. Charlie and Julie-Anne are friendly hosts with bright, light and very luxurious welcoming accommodation. They provide all those important small things often missed by large hotels, like fresh milk in the fridge. Genuinely interested in their guests and extremely helpful with information about the local area and amenities. Highlight of our stay was the impressive choice of food offered for breakfast, all freshly cooked and served to very high standard. Only disappointment was that we only had a brief stay whilst visiting the theatre. Definitely a place to bookmark for future, hopefully longer, visits
