We had a lovely extended weekend for our 50th Wedding Anniversary in January of this year. Our room was beautifully presented and very clean with a lovely comfortable bed. Breakfast is very good and we also had an excellent 4 course evening meal specially for our anniversary. Hosts Tony & Pauline are very friendly and make you feel very welcome,... More

What a gem of a place! I cannot recommend this B & B highly enough. Perfect for a woman travelling on her own. Pauline and Tony are perfect hosts, friendly and helpful but not too much and their ideas for refurbishment will make it even better. A very pleasant stay. More

FAB-U-LOUS Pauline and Tony were the perfect hosts. The room and ensuite were spotless. The meals were excellant good sized portions beautifully cooked and served. There was such attention to detail with extras on the tea tray, pretty toiletries in the shower room and there was plenty of help and advice on finding your way round the area. Everything you...

I can only echo what others have said about Pauline and Tony - they are perfect hosts. Cracking breakfasts with possibly the best poached eggs ever. The room was very clean (especially the en-suite which was spotlessly clean) and tastefully decorated with a very comfortable bed.. The guest house is well situated with the added advantage of having its own... More

The best Guest house that we have stayed in for many years, clean,fresh and hosts that were available but not hovering. Breakfast was worth getting out of a very comfortable bed for.The personal touch in the room was evident and very much appreciated. During our stay the temperature dropped quite significantly in the evening and the heating cut in to... More

Four dots because nothing is ever QUITE perfect and I couldn't find four & a half! Having said that this pad is extremely welcoming, Tony & Pauline treat you like old friends and provide a super breakfast and comradely last drink in the evening. The rooms are comfortable, well appointed and very clean. All in all a GOOD PLACE. More

I have now been to the Babbacombe Guest House twice this year and on each occasion have been greeted in the most warmest fashion possible. The rooms are as comfortable and clean as one would wish with the added tea/coffee facilities laid on to welcome you. The area is just perfect for the beaches and if you wish, shopping. After...
