A wonderful B&B, the best nights sleep I've had in a long time! Wendy is fantastic - nothing was too much trouble. Her homemade Irish soad bread in the morning is not to be missed; she even emailed me the recipe. Remeber to ask about the health and beauty therapies available during your stay. Don't hesitate, book today! ;o)

Thoroughly recommend. We went last year for our anniversary. Wendy is lovely and does amazing treatments. Still trying to get back down there. Rooms were all clean and fresh. Just nicely off the main streets but Wendy very kindly drive us to the seafront. 10/10

Set in the heart of Torquay amidst tranquil greenery. Perfect location to get to the evening ambience of the town or a short distance from a number of perfect Sunday strolls along the beach or rolling hillside. Merlewood House really has it all. A beautiful house with sophisticated, chic decor, spacious clean ensuite rooms and a hostess providing not only... More

We had cause to find an 'out of office' location to conduct some development work and have a team meeting. Merlewood House provided everything we could have wanted, warm hospitality, great service, excellent rooms. The atmosphere really helped us relax and get some great work done. I'd recommend it to anyone wanting to get away for a couple of days... More
