I had a great stay at The Clydesdale. Diane & Tommy were fantastic hosts and nothing was too much trouble. A quiet clean room with comfortable bed, and a cracking full English in the morning. Only a short walk to the town/sea front. I will definitely stay here again when in the area.

the welcome was lovely. As soon as we arrived we were offered a cup of tea. Both Diane and Tommy were very welcoming and friendly. The room was very clean with tea and coffee making facilities and a small fridge. The Clydesdale would certainly be my first place to book if and when we revisit Paignton.

To be welcomed “would you like a brew” on our arrival completely made my wife’s and myself mind we had chosen the correct place.
Lovely couple run this guest house. Was spot on for location and also benefitted from being in a quiet road. Easy walk to the beach and town. Look forward to going back.

A Wonderful Stay

The people who run The Clydesdale are fantastic. Nothing is too much trouble and they genuinely want your stay to be comfortable and memorable. I stayed the night before my birthday and even had a birthday card on the breakfast table in the morning! The room was spotlessly clean, the bed was comfortable and I had a superb sleep. Breakfast was a real treat with quality ingredients used in the cooked food, plenty of toast, hot drinks and juices, yogurts etc. A wonderful start to my birthday weekend. I cannot fault anything about my stay and would highly recommend this place if you want quality accommodation at a sensible price.

Weekend in Paignton

I took my mum to Paignton for an overnight stay at the Clydesdale. After being stuck in traffic for what seemed like an age we were instantly made to feel welcome upon our arrival. The room was clean and to our liking albeit a little strange to have the shower cubicle separated from the bathroom. The room had a lovely little private courtyard that we could sit outside in which was a nice touch.
Although a nice stay and a lovely breakfast they were having WiFi issues so could not connect to the Internet but wasn't that big a deal overall.
Would stay again for sure!!!

Average :)

Pretty average hotel, get what you pay for. Hotel staff very friendly and don't make you feel obliged to have breakfast. Room was quite cold at night and you can hear everyone's conversations through the walls. Shower was good though, usually the B&B's in Paignton have rubbish showers that are either boiling hot or freezing cold, but this one was easy to use and very good. Bathroom was small but clean and bedroom was okay sized for what we paid for.
I'd give breakfast a 5 out of 10 as was average. They gave a variety of ways you can have your eggs cooked, although i asked for poached the egg was cooked through so might as well have had a boiled egg. The breakfast times are between 8:30 - 9 however breakfast wasn't actually on the table until after 9. You may also have to share a table with another room. We only had breakfast once.
There is also a sign in the bathroom advising to put towels that you would like washed in the bath/shower, so we put all our towels in the shower and went out for the day, came back quite late and they were still there so had to hang these up to dry which was quite annoying. The next day we didn't bother but when we came back the bin had been changed and the bed made... Overall okay and would stay there again. Just wouldn't have breakfast and won't leave the towels in the bath, haha

A nights stay

On arrival was told we were not meant to check in until after 6 pm but on invoice said 2pm. The owner said it wasn't a problem though and showed us to our room.
The room was ok but not what I would see as a 4 star. Breakfast was good.
Bed was hard and pillows uncomfortable for us but others may like that.
The area is good for walking to town and the sea.
