Stayed here back in September for a short family break. Booked late but got a great deal. I contacted the hosts in advance to check on various things and always got a quick and helpful response. The location is great, a short walk downhill to either Paignton beach on one side or Goodrington Sands on the other. The hosts were extremely friendly and hospitable both on arrival and throughout the visit. We were very impressed with the Covid compliant policies in place and felt completely safe throughout the stay. There is off street parking at the rear of the property. The rooms were very good, perfectly adequate for a short stay. Breakfast was great with good choices. We used the small residents bar on two of the nights. This was nice and the owners were very happy to spend time with us. All in all a fantastic place to stay. Ian and Amanda and his parents were fantastic hosts. Thanks again and we hope to see you in the near future.…

Stayed here for 2 nites. Very friendly owners. Rooms were spotless. Breakfast first class. Loved the decking area in the garden where you could sit and have a drink in the evening. Owners on the ball with Covid, hand sanitizer at the entrance and in the bar/dining area. Lots of useful leaflets about the area in the porch. The only downside was the location, very steep hill back up to the hotel from the town. Don’t let this put you off though. Will defintely stay here again

Due to the current circumstances, we booked this last minute and were certainly not disappointed. We were given a very warm welcome and a full explanation of the COVID measures implemented throughout. There was a small but more than ample free car park. The location was superb and only a short walk from the beaches and town centre. The room was lovely with a sea view. The room was simple but lovely and very clean. The bed was comfortable and a nice clean en-suite. In these strange times, room service wasn’t as normal. Any requests, you simply leave a note outside the door or send a text. A wonderful stay and would recommend.

My daughter and I have just returned from our second visit to this wonderful guest house. As with last year - excellent service, superb cleanliness and the lovely and accommodating family who run it. The very robust Covid 19 precautions were smoothly executed and made us feel very reassured and safe. A truly lovely place to stay - situated equidistantly between two beautiful beaches. Yummy breakfast and reasonably priced bar. Will definitely return! It’s become our home away from home :)
