What a Gem!

A lovely clean and friendly place to stay. Very comfortable beds, nice decor, ample amenities for us. Lin, who runs this business is incredibly warm and attentive. She offered additional fresh chilled milk or water from the fridge conveniently located in the pretty dining room and asked if we wanted breakfast or some lunch. This hotel is so well placed for short walk to St Marychurch attractions or Babbacombe Theatre and restaurants. Also close to sea and famous Oddicombe Beach with cliff railway. We will be back!!

Trip to home town with disabled mum

Stayed for 3 nights at this lovely guest house in Babbacombe. I booked the twin bedded room on the ground floor as mum is disabled and finds stairs difficult. It was spacious and tastefully decorated. Mum loved the luxury hot chocolate and biscuits provided! Towels were super soft and toiletries were available for us to use. Room was spotless too! Our hosts, Scott and Lynn, could not do enough for us during our stay and it was the little touches ( sweets at reception - naughty mum 😋 and an honestly bar if we had wanted to help ourselves to drinks!) The breakfast was amazing every day and kept us full until the evening. The hotel is in a very good location, minutes walk from Babbacombe Downs and all the facilities on offer including a small theatre. There was lots of “things to do and places to visit” literature available if we needed it. We will definitely book this hotel again for our next visit. My fussy 87 year old mum could not pick fault! Hopefully next year!

The breakfast was excellent, a lovely dish of fresh berries and other fruits plus good quality muesli and other cereals and yogurts. They use good quality fresh produce for the cooked breakfasts, all cooked to order. Another thoughtful touch was they offered more toast, fresh coffee etc. nothing too much trouble to them.

We have just come back from 2 nights staying here with my dog, his 1st time staying in a hotel and we couldn't have been made to feel more welcome than we was kirsti an paul are so lovely. The room was a great size, very clean and it had everything we needed. The bed was so comfy after a day out i slept so well. The Breakfast was delicious and there was plenty of it that i could start the day off right.
The hotel is a great area as well its close to the main attractions of babbacombe like the mountain train, model village and bygones all a must to see, a little bus ride to the harbour and back and all allow dogs.
Parking was no problem we was able to park a little further up the street for free and could pull up to load an unload just outside. I would 100% recommend this hotel to anyone especially all my family and friend's if they plan a trip to Torquay.

We had an amazing break at this wonderful little B And B hosted by the lovely Paul and Kirsti . From the moment we arrived we felt completely satisfied and happy with our choice. Paul welcomed us and showed us to our lovely room which was spotlessly clean and ample room for 2. At breakfast they both made a real fuss of us both and our cockerpoo Lexi , even made her scrambled egg for breakfast.
If your staying at Babbacombe in our opinion this is the place to book you won't be disappointed . We will certainly be back when we are at this area again .
Thanks Paul and Kirsti 😊

Excellent place to stay

Babbacombe palms is a lovely little guest house. The room we had was big enough for me and my son and there were so many little personal touches to make our stay pleasurable. Decor throughout was modern and immaculate and the room, breakfast room and communal areas spotlessly clean. Hosts were great - gave us information regarding best places to go nearby and how to get to other places, asked about our day and remembered the drinks etc we had for breakfast! Very friendly couple. The whole place has a calm and very friendly atmosphere. We loved our stay, thank you.

Excellent B&B

We received an extremely friendly welcome when we arrived at the Babbacombe Palms by Paul. He explained the covid restriction rules that effected our stay and showed us to our room. The room was very clean and comfortable. All items like the remote control has been put in individual bags to show they had been sanitised.
At breakfast Kirsti is an excellent host and nothing is too much trouble. The breakfast were delivered hot and were delicious. Both Paul & Kirsti were always willing to answer any questions we had and make recommendations about places to visit and where to eat.
Babbacombe Palms is an excellent B&B with great hosts, we will be returning for another stay next year.

Fantastic Stay, Brilliant Owners

We are glad we chose the Babbacombe Palms for our stay in Torquay. The owners are really friendly and really take an interest in their guests and made us feel very welcome, and even spent time playing games with my son. Every aspect is very well thought out to make the stay as perfect as possible, and we had one of the best nights sleep in a hotel bed here. Would completely recommend this location and will definitely stay here when we travel down next year.

Outstanding Guest House in Babbacombe, Torquay.

This is an outstanding guest house with a tremondous welcome, superb rooms and excellent breakfast. Paul and Kirsti are 5 star hosts. It is situated close to the Babbacombe Downs and near many good eating places. It is also a little set back from the main road and therefore we found it lovely and quiet. For those wanting to visit Plainmoor and Torquay Utd for the football it is less than a 10 minute walk to the ground.

Lovely stay

We had a lovely weekend break. Babbacombe Palms is a lovely guest house run by a really lovely couple - nothing was too much trouble. It's nice and close to the seafront and all of the local attractions. The cliff railway is a must! We walked down to the beach, had a coffee overlooking the sea and took the railway back up. We had a really relaxing time there.

Lovely B&B, near the beach

Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the proprietor having already received a text message telling us our room was available for early check-in if we arrived earlier than planned.

The family room we reserved was lovely - roomy for a family of four, with nice seats for relaxing, which I prefer up having to sit on a bed. The room and en-suite bathroom, and indeed the whole hotel, was spotlessly clean. The only slight downside in the room was the poor wi-fi signal. Not a huge problem, but kind of expected in this day and age, so rather frustrating. I don't think this would necessarily be a problem in all of the rooms - the signal was fine on the ground floor, but our room was located in the basement.

The hotel does not have its own parking facilities, but this should not put you off. The on-street parking was perfectly adequate with no restrictions or cost, and we never once failed to get a space near to the hotel.

Breakfast was great, with a good choice, and the proprietors will even let guests use the breakfast room for a takeaway meal with prior arrangement.

Nothing was too much trouble for the proprietors, and they clearly work really hard to make their guests feel welcome and enjoy their stay as much as possible. They were great with the children, and we would not hesitate to stay there again if planning on being in the area. Thank you!

Me, my partner and children age 6 & 10 had a fantastic time at Devon. The hotel was lovely, the owners were really friendly and helpful and we had a great time down at babbacombe beach on the last day and Paignton zoo the day before. The zoo is great, it's got a vast amount of animals and is a great day for the whole family. We also caught the bus down to Torquay, which again was lovely with plenty to do. All in all a fantastic break.
