I have stayed at the Glendower several times now. Located not far from Torquay seafront it is an ideal location. The room is very roomy with a lovely comfy big bed and a separate seating area which includes tea and coffee making facilities as well as having a separate en suite bathroom and toilet which is always spotlessly clean, the...

A lovely place run by lovely people.They were so helpful. The room was very nice; the bed was probably the most comfortable we've ever slept in..... and the breakfast was amazing. All locally sourced food. Great location too. Bus stop was close to the door, 5 minutes from the beach, 6 minutes from the train station. A thoroughly enjoyable holiday... More

The Glendower ticks all the boxes when it comes to food and comfort in your room. Our room was clean, spacious and a lovely shower room. The bed was enormous and very comfortable. The one downside of our room was that it was at the front and very dark which was not the owners fault. Although having large windows the... More

They were very helpful and booked us in with no fuss or problems. An email arrived on Friday morning giving us very good directions as... More

Spent a very happy week at this B&B during September 2012 (with an unexpected heat wave thrown in to boot at no extra charge). Room vacuumed daily, lovely complementary body washes, shampoos and conditioners in a very clean shower. MASSIVE comfy bed, well stocked room beverages, within walking distance of all local attractions and I can honestly say that the... More

This B&B never fails to impress, I have stayed here on numerous occasions from when I was young with my parents and now I bring my little boy here once a year. The rooms are clean and modern, the beds are very comfortable, we had clean towels and our room cleaned everyday. The homemade breakfast has to be the best... More
