The Charterhouse is in an excellent location in Torquay, close to Cockington Gardens, which is a beautiful setting as well. Les and Marion work very hard to make guests feel welcome and at home. The breakfasts are superb - we would add our praise to the long list for Les' marmalade but also for the overall quality of the breakfasts.... More

We had a lovely 4 day stay at the charterhouse staying in the Riviera room. Our hosts Marion & Les, couldn't have been friendlier or more helpful. Our large room was spotless with a large bathroom and a sea view. Breakfasts were wonderfully endless and full of homemade produce. We shall be back.

The Charterhouse is a great place to stay. Marion and Les are extremely welcoming and helpful - the restaurant suggestions for dinner were top notch. The situation is ideal - in a lovely area on a quiet road but within easy walking distance to the main centre. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable - we loved our spacious bathroom.... More

There is only one place to stay in Torquay and that is the Charterhouse. We spent 5 nights there last week and we had an amazing time. We were greated with an extremely warm welcome and were looked after exceptionally well during our stay. The room was spotlessly clean and nothing was too much trouble for either Les or Marion....
