Communal areas were a bit tired, but the room itself was in good condition - clean and comfortable. Food was really nice, and the location was good for local walking and visits. Very friendly staff too!

Good base for Brixham
Good base for Brixham and close to the park and ride. By the steam train so easy to walk across to that. Good restaurant menu and very helpful staff. Was quiet at night. Comfortable bed.

Stayed here for work. The room was very dirty. You can see the cleaner did bare minimum. Didn’t get to try the breakfast as it did not start till 8:30 and I left at 8. I did mention this to the staff member and there was no offer to accommodate. I didn’t eat here I ate somewhere else. Trying to get out on the main road was also a nightmare.

Clean but not enough shower gel and the room door was a fiddle to lock properly. Parking was good and felt safe. Food was good but having booked and paid for breakfast to find out if wasn’t served until well after I left for work was irksome. On my checkin night at 9pm, I was ‘encouraged’ to leave the bar and take my drink to my room. This alone is enough for me to avoid booking this accommodation again despite the good proximity to my office.
