We hadn't been to Torquay for some 16 years but after watching the Portillo train journey from Exeter St Davids to Torquay we decide we had to try that very trip. I vaguely remembered Cockington village and found the Lanscome situated there and booked in. The hotel is immaculate and Leon and Paula are excellent hosts. The breakfasts' really set... More

For anyone needing a quiet break in South Devon, Lanscombe House should definitely be on your short list. Leon and Paula are role models for any small hotel owner. They were both very hospitable and welcoming with a fund of local knowledge, invaluable to a first time visitor. The hotel is in a quiet location in Cockington village, which is... More

We have visited this hotel on many occasions and have found the hosts and the hotel to be of a very high standard. What we like about it is that it is away from busy Torquay and you can totally unwind in the very comfortable rooms and surroundings. The hosts look after you very well and gave us very good... More

My wife and I had to visit Torbay at short notice as the result of a family bereavement. We sought B&B accommodation on the web and fortuitously stumbled upon Lanscombe House Hotel. On arrival we received a warm welcome and a courteous tour of the premises. The accommodation was ideal for our purposes with a comfotable room with en suite... More

Thanks for choosing us and making the time to give us your review. We are glad we provided a high standard which hopefully helped through a difficult time. The notes about the squeeky hinges and lights are also very welcomed as we like to get the details just right - the hinges are one thing we must have forgotton to... More

This Hotel was perfect to our needs. My husband and I took my mother in law aged 86years, she loved it, so did we. We were made so very welcome from the minute we arrived. The bedrooms came up to our expectations, indulged in the soaps and hand creams, dressing gowns and of course tea making facilities. The breakfast was... More

The owners are first class and do all possible to make your stay a happy one in a very traditional setting with quality furniture and wonderful bedrooms with quality fittings and the finest bathroom you could ever ask for. The breakfast is just wonderful with a... More

Following a search on the English Riviera Tourist Board web site we found this gem of a place. However we found out from serching the hotel's own website that if we booked direct it would be cheaper. We rang up and it was considerably cheaper than what the tourist board website were charging. What we didn't realise was, although the... More

We stayed for two nights at Lanscombe House and have nothing negative to say about it. The room was lovely and spacious, spotlessly clean and very comfortable with lovely views over the garden. The breakfast was fantastic. We booked there as we have family in the area and would not hesitate to book again. More
