    The property was warm and well maintained, the themed rooms were found to be an interesting touch as with the artefact’s, Unique Boutique is apt.

    I wish we had stayed in the India room, the bathroom was out of this world. There are 6 rooms and they are all named after a country e.g; India, Bali, Tuscany, Egypt.

    The breakfast was superb, the fruit was delicious, fresh and beautifully presented. The full english was delicious, very well cooked piping hot and lots of toast too. The house itself was fabulous, the owners a husband and wife team were very helpful and friendly. They had great pride in their beautiful home, the room where you had breakfast was wonderful, we were there over the Christmas period so we got to have a Christmas tree and very tasteful decorations to see. Good location to walk into Torquay.

    The fact that we had to leave to catch the ferry

    Everything, Elaine and Martin are such lovely, friendly hosts. A cup of coffee on arrival, explaining where restaurants are, how to get around on the map. You can tell they care so much about there home and guests. Our bedroom was so lovely and spotlessly clean. The bed was so comfortable and we had a really good nights sleep. Plenty toiletries in the bathroom. Lots of information in the bedroom where to find things eg hairdryer (which is a nice touch) Breakfast is good,lots of choice, cereals,yoghurts, fruit salad and of course a good old English breakfast if you want. There are also lighter options to choose from.

    can’t fault the property they even moved their own personal car so our van could be parked safely. it is located up a hill or you struggle walking but they even explained a shortcut way back to avoid the larger inclines.

    lovely quirky design. very comfortable bed. all the amenities you could possibly need. the staff were 10/10 friendly with great recommendations on places to go and places to eat. breakfast was also very nice.

The room was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need and more. The breakfast was great, delicious fresh fruit salad and a good full English.

    Nothing everything was absolutely perfect

    The owners Martin and Elaine were very friendly, attentive, easy going, very nice and relaxed easy to talk to, we were welcomed in with a pot of tea straight away which was lovely. They helped by giving suggestions where to eat and places to go and explore, how to get to our friends, all round very lovely couple. The hotel was immaculately clean and smelt so fresh, the nice smell of breakfast in the morning was delicious. The décor is absolutely amazing and so beautifully maintained too. Lovely views and very peaceful. The room was a very decent size double room with an equally very decently sized ensuite with a walk in shower all beautifully designed and had everything we needed, we were asked if we required anything more which was also so nice and thoughtful. Breakfast was absolutely delicious and had a great choice from the cooked menu and the continental breakfast menu too. Will definitely stay again 100%
