Stayed here for 4 nights with my wife and both of us were really impressed, we were welcomed immediately and was given some good locations to explore that I’d have never considered. Breakfasts were also very impressive and though small were just enough to start the day. We will definitely be returning to this guest house l, though I’m not a fan of Paignton

From arrival host was great and friendly. All weekend he went out of his way to help. Rooms nice and clean some smaller than others but still good for the price u pay. Good selection for freshly cooked breakfasts. Five min walk to beach area and free parking will be back when we come next year.

Hans was very accommodating to facilitate a late check in due to a train delay. Excellent Menu options and breakfast was of a high standard. Room fully equipped with everything I needed. Would recommend and would certainly stay again if back in Paignton. Railway station is less than 10 mins walk and the seafront less than 5 mins very central location

Excellent.

All of the praise given in the other reviews is well deserved and I booked a stay here on their experience. My room was clean and comfortable and quiet, with the tea/coffee tray topped up daily. The breakfast can be any combination you prefer and is very filling, cooked and served promptly with care by Hans. He is a friendly host, who is generous with his time and local knowledge. I have no hesitation in recommending a stay here, indeed, I may well return to the Waverley, if I holiday in Devon next year.

From arrival to departure Hans was extremely welcoming and attentive. His hospitality was second to none. The facilities were very clean and the breakfast was excellent. Nothing was too much trouble for Hans and this was a safe and comfortable place for my 6year old and I to stay. Bedding including mattress could do with replacing but everything else was perfect. Our room with shared bathroom actually had a sink in it and the shower room was a matter of steps away from our room and was not actually shared with anyone else. We hope to be back next year :) thank you!!!
