This was our second stay and once again it was faultless. Beautiful room and spotlessly clean. Yet again viv and Peter could not be more welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was fantastic especially the eggs benadict and florentine which we both enjoyed so much. I do not it would be possible to find a better place to stay in Torquay and... More

Again...a pleasure to have such interesting guests to stay with us. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay and that the room excelled. Definitely no cockroaches here! ....and even if there were I would make sure they had a clean hanky and had washed behind their ears that morning! We wish you well with your new venture. It sounds...

This is by far the best guest house we have stayed in. Nothing was too much trouble from the moment we stepped in until we left. These owners care passionately about their guests - and it shows. Fantastic cream tea when we arrived, superb breakfast - all you can eat and a wonderful experience all round. Peter even took care... More

I hope you gave the lovely piggies a cuddle from us when you got home! Sorry that herring roe was not available but maybe we can get it ordered for you next time. We are both pleased that you enjoyed your stay and the breakfasts. You were lucky with the weather. Wasn't it just glorious! A little more overcast now... More

We enjoyed our stay here very much even though we had a problem with the shower. We were offered a cream tea on arrival. There were sweets and fruit in the room. The bed was very comfortable.

Very nice and clean house, very elegantly decorated and comfortable bedroom, great breakfast, but more importantly - very cheerful, polite, and helpful staff. Plus off-street parking. Not located at the beachfront, but only a short drive away from it. What more could you want?

We hope you enjoyed your trip on into the depths of Cornwall and found a few more fossils for your collection, although Tin and Copper is more likely in those foreign parts.
