A wonderful little gem that we happened upon by chance.All the very best qualities of a traditional BandB spotlessly clean lovely food and very friendly ownes. As a female who sometimes travels alone this would be a lovely place to stay although in this instance I was with my husband you would feel completely comfortable staying here on your own.We... More

We were looking for a suitable B&B for our family and could not have asked for more. The family room suited our needs and was very comfortable. The view of the outer harbour was lovely and our son loved watching the boats come in and out of the harbour. Parking was easy and lots of space to unload all of... More

On arriving in Brixham with no planned accommodation we happened upon this little gem. Lovely couple who were very welcoming, freindly and helpful and made our stay extremely memorable. Would recommend to anyone with plans to visit the surrounding area. A joy and pleasure. Nick and Kirsten More

This was our first stay at Ranscombe House. We arrived four hours early from Worcester relying on our satnav and met Richard, our host, who made us very welcome and booked us in. We were in the two rooms with the sea view which made it all the more inviting. The stay throughout, with our breakfasts was first class, nothing... More

We have been staying at the Ranscombe House for the last 5 years and have found it to be the perfect location to stay whilst in Brixham. We book religiously each year - and this year we returned for a second stay! We have seen all of the rooms available and although I do prefer room 6, myself and my... More

Although beautifully clean and welcoming, with great breakfast and lovely setting, we found our inland view rooms just a little too snug for comfort. The shower room was basic but adequate but with toiletries not replenished on our 3 night visit it was fortunate that I had spare shampoo, shower gel etc to hand. We would return to the Ranscombe,...

Unfortunately, my wife and I had the opposite experience at Ranscombe to everyone else who has commented on trip advisor. Perhaps it was because of the room we were allocated. We were given Room 7 (to be avoided at all costs!!) and moved out after our first night (we had booked in for 2 nights) to other accommodation. No doubt,... More

We were saddened to see the negative comments from this guest who we remember well. He checked in at about 4.30pm and we made it clear that there was somebody around to be of service if needed.He did not indicate that there was a problem and we were surprised at his actions the next morning in that he left.

This was our third stay at Ranscombe House and was as good as ever. It is a lovely period house and we booked our usual room which has a view across the bay. Richard and Moira are very welcoming and full English breakfast is very good. Off road parking is immediately in front of the house and is a real... More
