A lovely hotel at a fantastically low price. We went over the Bank Holiday weekend and booked last minute. Initially we went not expecting a great hotel but we were pleasantly surprised and really changed our minds. The hosts are lovely, the breakfast is delicious and the beds are so comfortable. Plus the hot tub is a great addition, it... More

Spotlessly clean B&B in a good, quiet location in Torquay. The service from the owner (Barry) was absolutely superb and we were made to feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. The room was well equipped with a modern en suite bathroom with shower. The bed was very large and extremely comfortable and we enjoyed two great nights sleep... More

Tucked down a side road on the outskirts of Torquay you will find the Southbourne Villa. It says its a B&B / Guest House, try more like a five star hotel breakfast room and lounge. David and Edna make you very welcome with a pot of tea and biscuits on arrival. Rooms spotless, and well apointed. Little etras like fresh... More

We visited Southbourne Villa on a three day break over Easter (2013). We can highly recommend this lovely guest house which puts many a 4 star hotel to shame. Spotlessly clean throughout, lovely bedroom, high quality bedding & towels and many extras i.e. toiletries, bath robes, fresh milk and complimentary water in the fridge etc Delicious breakfasts served in a...

We visited Southbourne Villa with a group of friends for a weekend in February. David and Edna were very welcoming. The breakfast was amazing especially the fresh fruit selection. Oh and not to mention the amazing freshly cooked full English breakfast. David recommended 2 lovely places to eat and arranged taxis for us. The whole house is really clean spotless... More

We stayed for my birthday and were made very welcome. Unfortunately I was ill and stayed in bed, which was very comfy! This is a family run hotel and they gave us lots of info on the area about the best restaurants and pubs. Very clean and breakfast was lovely. Planning on going back in the summer.

A well run large B&B, more like a small hotel. The owner is very welcoming and friendly, the rooms are spotless and well maintained. Very comfortable public rooms and the whole place is bright and well decorated. The breakfast selection is great with loads of fresh fruit, food cooked to order using quality produce. If your looking for a good... More

Spotlessly clean room. Towels changed every day. All the little extras that you would expect to find in a four star hotel. Lovely size room. Breakfast was perfect and nothing was too much trouble. Friendly host.

Easy access on a road running parallel to the main road in to Torquay seafront. Ten minute brisk walk to the seafront. Great welcome, with help with luggage. Comfortable bed, spotless room and en-suite, with robes, lots of great towels, fridge with fresh milk and still and sparkling water. Absolutely anything you want for breakfast with some nice touches with... More
