Just arrived back from the Trecarn Hotel in Torquay what a disaster. The showerhead and taps in our bathroom were covered in black mould,the tile grouting was black,the toilet had never been cleaned. Our friends room had black mouldy net curtains in their bathroom.black rotten window frames.holes in the carpet,no heating or hot water one day. Came back from our... more

Just spent a weekend there with a friend and had a really good time. Entertainment each evening and all inclusive meant free bar so we didn't need to leave the hotel to have an enjoyable time. Room was clean and comfortable but badly in need of upgrade as was most of the hotel because in parts it was shabby and... more

After reading the reviews on here I was a bit nervous of going to the Trecarn. What can I say we had a great time. Food was lovely, hot and plentiful served with a smile. We had a triple room, very clean and comfortable with bath and separate shower cubicle. My Mum had a disabled room on the ground floor... more

Tucked out of the way but in easy reach of buses to Torquay and Teignmouth. Decoration is well past its sell by date and a rubber tap attachment (which doesnt fit the taps) is the only reseblance to a shower. Service in the restaurant is a unhurried affair with 30 mins between courses and a meager menu. Extra toast is... more

Along with most people I looked up this hotel after booking this short break for myself, husband and daughter who is a school teacher (half-term).

In spite of all the detremental reports, that I have read on this site, I can only ask what people expect for their money. My Wife and I, along with our four friends, found this hotel very acceptable, our rooms were clean and tidy,we had room no 223 in the annex. Although the decor of the hotel in general, was... more

I booked with trepidation having read the poor reviews. I was very pleasantly surprised. This was my first holiday with Shearings and the hotel is part of their value range. The hotel seemed to have an ongoing process of updating and we found our room and public rooms of good standard. The hotel is situated in a pleasant area,short distance... more
