Paignton's lovely beech, shops, food outlets and pubs is a lively place. For the Air Show, on the green was the Fair, open air concerts with singers and groups. Right next door is Preston's beech, beautiful with little beech huts and it's own green

Paignton is a great place to stay to explore the wider South Devon countryside. The buses to Torquay/Brixham go every 10 minutes and go as far as Newton Abbot or Exeter. The train links are even quicker, and you take the steam train to Dartmouth

Like most seaside towns it has its noisy area, but thankfully we where away from that. Highly recommend the Harbour Inn & area to visit eat/ drink & the other bars, plus the coastal sea trip was relaxing & enjoyable couple of hours.

Paignton is a town of two halves. The beaches, promenades, harbour etc are all beautiful and offer amazing options for families or couples. The town itself is sadly in massive decline and is best to be avoided.

So much to do within 30 minute drive. Loved Cockington which was just up the road. The Pier has new machines on them, first in the UK, loved every minute
"Lovely hotel, nice sized room, nice sized bar with lounge area and pool table, central location close to town centre, harbour and pier, lovely indoor pool, staff really friendly and helpful, evening entertainment as well, really good value for money, i will book again at some point in the near future but will make sure im not staying right next to the lift as its noisy up until 12am and again from about 6am the following morning."
"We had a very comfortable stay at the hotel and were impressed with the facilities and friendly staff. We returned for the 2nd time having also enjoyed our first stay. Love the views of Torbay and the internal architecture and furnishings of the hotel. It was a shame that the outdoor pool was closed but enjoyed the indoor pool / spa facilities."
"Had a great short break in Paignton staying with Sarah and Paul at the Rowcroft Lodge.
The guest house is well located with a short walk to the town centre, including the Dartmouth Steam Railway station, and even shorter walk to the beach.
Sarah does a very nice freshly cooked breakfast and the room and bed very comfortable.
We were made very welcome and thoroughly enjoyed our stay."
"First time away with my partner on holiday for one night, the rooms were wonderful, nice spacious area and comfy beds. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Just wished the check in was before 3pm but overall wonderful hotel to stay in for a night away or two. Definitely coming back again. "
