    So ideal location to Babbacombe beaches, good for visiting Torquay. Again, walking distance to a life-sized Victorian shopping street.

    friendly staff
    delicious buffet
    engaging entertainment
    limited family entertainment

    We had a really nice stay, enjoying the lovely restaurant with delicious buffet options and friendly staff who always went the extra mile for us. My dad particularly loved the entertainment. One evening featured a great singer who really engaged the audience.

    For dads, it would be great if there were more kid-friendly entertainment options.

    good breakfast
    heated pool
    awkward stair access

    We had a nice stay, and the breakfast spread was surprisingly good with perfectly cooked eggs. Relaxing near the heated swimming pool and soaking in the jacuzzi really helped us unwind after a busy day. The stair access was a bit awkward for our luggage, but it didn't ruin our overall experience. 😊

    comfortable stay but minor issues

    The check-in process was swift, with a friendly receptionist who provided all the needed info. Our room offered ample space, was well-maintained, and had good tea-making facilities.

    The parking situation could be improved.

    The family room was spacious and bright.

    The room smelled fusty and had creaky floorboards that disturbed sleep.
