Once again we had a wonderful stay at this hotel. We stayed 5 nights half board. Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in Paignton. Just a short stroll from both Paignton and Goodrington beaches. Julie and Tony are great hosts and offer a warm welcome and tea and biscuits upon arrival.

We stayed at Sonachan House for 3 nights, family of 4 and mother-in-law in a single. We had no problems and were very pleased with our rooms and facilities. Wonderful breakfasts and a good location into town. Thinking of returning to Paignton if we get a summer this year, and Sonachan House will be the first place we try when... More

We spent three nights for valentine get-away and wished we stayed longer. Good food and hospitality, we found no faults during our stay and will be back again for frequent visits. We enjoy Paignton so much and could not stay at usual choice - which we called our "second home"- as under new management alterations not suitable, so we are... More

We spent 4 nights at Sonachan House and couldn't really fault it. The room was a little small but everything else about Sonachan more than made up for this. Julie and Tony were the best hosts,, so friendly and helpful. They couldn't do enough for us. I don't think we've stayed anywhere else where the room was so clean, bright... More

We only stayed for one night, but felt very welcome. Our host had a lot of good suggestions for activities and where to get dinner. From the B&B, it's only a short walk to Paignton beach and harbour. The rooms were a bit small but comfortable and clean. Breakfast was good and plentiful. A very nice place to stay in... More

The owners afre freindly and welcoming and mix with the guests and reely put themselves out to make the stay as enjoyable as possible. Breakfasts were very good and I gather they also do evening meals if requested although I have not tried them. The Sonachon is... More

Fantastic family-run business. Very friendly, just luck being home from home. The accommodation has very comfortable, smartly decorated en-suite rooms from family, double, single and ground-floor. All rooms have freeview televisions, radio, tea/coffee making facilities and more. A huge choice of delicious home cooked meals at breakfast with choice of menu also available for optional evening meal. A well-stocked bar... More

After reading several reviews we deciced to book a room and found everything to be as the reviews had said. Tony and Julie were excellent hosts, the room was spotless and the breakfast was, as mentioned in the review i had read, "to die for" we will certainly be booking Sonachan House on our next visit to Paignton.
