The owners are very friendly, polite & helpful. They even offered & went on line & printed off a map of the area, to help us find a location! The British Full... More

Booked through Late Rooms at a week's notice - we couldn't have been made more welcome. Lots of little lovely touches noticed during out two night stay. The room, although without a sea view, was nice with en suite shower and toilet, and four poster bed in a seaside style. The whole place is modern yet traditional. There are lovely... More

We just loved this place and Babbacombe itself is a gem with some wonderful walks. We will be back and thanks Helen and Craig for making... More

We visited this lovely little B&B for the bank holiday weekend, after enjoying it so much at Easter. We unfortunately couldn't get an ensuite room, but did get a room with a view. The views are just amazing, and the balcony just large enough for us both to sit on with a glass of wine in the early evenings, or... More
