Friendly, clean, great breakfast.

10.0

Fantastic hosts, super friendly and helpful (made good recommendations for eating out and things to do with my teenager). The guest house is really fresh and clean with stylish decor. Close to seafront and town about a 10min walk (but far enough away that noise isn’t an issue). Parking available and parking is expensive in Torquay. Lovely home cooked breakfast that is really good and you can have a 3 course breakfast if you want to. I would recommend The Sandpiper Guest house to anyone staying in Torquay.
