Before arriving, the image of English B&B's still conjured up memories of Only Fools & Horses in Margate but the brilliant Elmdene couldn't be further from that. With it's excellent location, cleanliness and attention to detail it really put the 'break' into our short 3 night stay. The hosts, Andy & Carol were great and ensured everything was spot-on. I've returned to work today and really do feel relaxed although a little heavier thanks to probably the best full English breakfasts i've ever had.

Thanks again guys and Andy, good luck next season ;-)

This is a beautiful hotel which is in a prime location just a few minutes walk to the sea front.The owners Andy and Carol are very welcoming and the room we stayed in was really lovely,bed was very comfortable and everything was spotless.There is ample parking so you do not have to worry about your car.The breakfast was very good with a wide choice to suit everyone tastes.There is also a bar area so if you do not want to go out of an evening you can have a drink there,they also serve bar meals at very reasonable prices.I f we go back to Torquay I would not hesitate in going back to the Elmdene Hotel.

Our third rear with our hosts Carol & Andy. This year we had the added pleasure of good weather! At the time of our stay only one couple had not been before, in itself a perfect RECOMMENDATION. As usual the Hotel is kept very clean, rooms are spacious and very well appointed. Sould the Breakfast be not so varied and well cooked, If the Hotel lacked its Character, Charm & Cleanliness, would we still go? Most certainly because, in Carol and Andy you have the perfect hosts. unobtrusive friendlieness. You can't beat it.

This was the third time we have stayed at Carol & Andy Gibbs' great 'home from home'.
Everything was 'spot on' from the comfortable, spacious and well furnished room to the excellent and varied breakfast menu.

We travel to Torquay regularly. We now have no decision to make about where to stay.
