What a fantastic b&b. Let me start by saying- Sharon the owner is lovely! And made us feel welcome instantly. Plenty of parking out front of the b&b. Breakfast is lovely, and served by a lovely and friendly waitress! The room is SPOTLESS, and I am really picky! Good comfortable bed, great prices. This has to be one of the best B and Bs we have ever stayed in. Torquay is a beautiful place too! If you are thinking about booking the Kelvin house, I would certainly recommend it

Comfortable bed and very friendly welcoming staff. The room lacked those little thoughtful extras one expects in a B&B - box of tissues, cleaning pads, etc. Quite a lot of traffic noise. Unfortunately the breakfast was disappointing - rather poor coffee, and eggs overcooked. Lovely waitress though. Maybe we've just been spoiled in other places.

Such a quaint establishment. The two owners were so friendly and helpful. Our room was cosy and immaculate. Breakfast had plenty of choice and there is also a communal lounge. The seafront is a short 10mins walk away.
