Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, comfortable rooms with everything you could need. Aidan & Mij were excellent hosts and Dexter was a very lovely chap too. Easy walking into Paignton for the beaches, restaurants and lots of activities. Beds were very comfortable, rooms spotless and breakfast delicious. An excellent cooked breakfast and lots of it. Pancakes were a real hit too.
