What fantastic weather you had for your few days here in Torquay. There has been so much doom and gloom this year about the rain but actually it has been lovely here when it has not been elsewhere - that's why the Torbay was so popular as a resort and somewhere for the wealthy Victorians to come for a rest...

Viv and Peter were friendly and very helpful. As we were only staying one night, Peter recommended where we should go to make the most of our stay. Our room was clean and the wifi worked well. A good breakfast to top it off. Very enjoyable and would recommend to any other travellers.

After a long journey,we started our stay with a delicious cream tea-what a treat! Viv and Peter were wonderful hosts and our room was superbly clean and fresh.

At least the weather was good enough for you to enjoy the views from your window. The room you were in (Mallock) is ideal for that, being one of the bigger ones on the first floor. We are glad that you enjoyed the complementary cream tea. It is glorious today for that, our incoming guests have taken advantage of the... More

Would thoroughly recommend the Villa Marina if looking for a small hotel in Torquay. The proprietors Viv and Peter are so friendly and helpful. It is so obvious they want your stay to be enjoyable and pay so much attention to detail. The rooms are spotless and well furnished and the breakfasts are superb.

This is by far the best guest house we have stayed in. Nothing was too much trouble from the moment we stepped in until we left. These owners care passionately about their guests - and it shows.

Very nice and clean house, very elegantly decorated and comfortable bedroom, great breakfast, but more importantly - very cheerful, polite, and helpful staff. Plus off-street parking. Not located at the beachfront, but only a short drive away from it. What more could you want?

We hope you enjoyed your trip on into the depths of Cornwall and found a few more fossils for your collection, although Tin and Copper is more likely in those foreign parts.
