Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Another comfortable stay at this beautiful bed and breakfast, just a three night stay this time (we had seven nights in June). Anita and Dave are perfect hosts and so helpful with any requests you may have. The hotel is spotlessly clean and our room "the medium suite" was absolutely lovely and the bed so comfortable. We will of course be staying again next year as this place is so good .Thanks again Anita and Dave and Thankyou for the Prosecco. Neville and Karen Beech

Another great visit to the Abbeyfield and once again made to feel very welcome. Spotlessly clean, comfortable beds and a delicious breakfast, make sure you have a good breakfast as it will keep you going all day. My sister and I always look forward to our time there.

Just back from a very relaxing 7 night break on the English riviera at this most beautiful bed and breakfast. Our hosts Anita and Dave were absolutely brilliant and very helpful and polite and nothing was ever too much trouble. The hotel is situated in a quiet part of Torquay and about a 10 minute walk to the sea front but has a number of bus stops nearby if you don't fancy the walk! Our room (No 2) was spotlessly clean and had a really comfortable king size bed as well as a fridge with fresh water and milk which was replenished by Anita every day. There were also tea and coffee making facilities and a good selection of biscuits for that nice treat when you get back from a long day. The breakfasts were amazing with a great choice to suit all tastes and all cooked to perfection, there is also fresh fruit and a good selection of cereals. We cannot recommend this hotel highly enough and will definitely be returning. Thanks again Anita and Dave. Neville and Karen Beech …

Absolutely perfect B and B! I feel we were so lucky to be able to book this at late notice. Spotlessly clean, gorgeous room, incredible breakfast - lots of choice. The room had a mini fridge with 2 litre bottles of fresh water and a glass bottle of fresh milk. There was a Lavazza coffee pod machine, biscuits, selection of teas and coffees, fresh fruit, and fresh flowers! A beautiful bathroom. So clean and smelled so fresh. Anita is a lovely host and went out of her way to make things perfect. Thanks so much for a perfect stay! Emma and Chris G

A return visit to the Abbeyfield B&B, our favourite place to stay in Torquay. We always receive a warm and friendly weclome from Anita. The room was warm, super clean and comfortable. Our mini fridge was stocked with fresh milk and water. There was a coffee maker with pods and cofee bags, tea, hot chocolate, fresh fruit and biscuits in our room. Each morning we had the most delicious choice of locally sourced produce for our breakfast all cooked to perfection by Anita. Fresh home cooked bread was also available along with freshly prepared fruit salad and pastries. Parking outside the propety is also a bonus. Anita is a wonderful host and we will definately be returning again.

We have had the opportunity to make a return visit to the Abbeyfield after almost 5 years. This has always been our favourite place to stay in Torquay being within walking distance of the town’s restaurants and transport links. The new owners have made a number of subtle changes which have improved the decor and layout and have created more space in the dining room. There is a wide and varied breakfast menu which includes Anita’s freshly baked bread. Hopefully we will be back again before too long.
