Adam United States of America

I had a lovely stay at Coastal Waters. The owners are really friendly and helpful and the breakfast is really tasty and very generous. The single room is small, but clean and had a great tea and coffee station! From here, I explored Torquay as well as the surrounding area. Great, central location for a holiday in Devon. Highly recommend Coastal Waters as a place to stay.

Brought two elderly relatives., The owner couldn't do enough to make our stay more welcoming. He was an exceptional host with genuine care for their needs. The rooms were extremely clean. Breakfast was amazing 😊 There are a few stairs to climb but we all managed and he offered us his parking space to make it easier for the elderly relatives.. they managed great and they adored him.
