The Millbrook B&B, hotel in Torquay

Located 1 mile from Torquay Harbour, Millbrook House is just a 6-minute walk from Torre Abbey Historic House and Gallery. Fresh local produce is served at this guest accommodation.

We stayed for 3 nights at this lovely B&B with our pet dog. Vanessa and Cameron are exceptional hosts and have literally thought of everything to ensure their guests have a comfortable stay. We especially liked the fridge in our room which was stocked with fresh milk and water every day. Nice quality tea bags, coffee and biscuits in the room. The honesty fridge in the hallway is a great idea with snacks and drinks always available. The breakfast was perfectly cooked with a good choice of options on the menu, and there was a wide variety of fruits and cereals etc. Vanessa goes out of her way to accommodate any additional needs, and our dog was spoilt with a cooked sausage every morning. The hotel was spotlessly clean and in a great location very near to the sea front. This is definitely one of the nicest B&Bs we’ve ever stayed in.

The Briarfields, hotel in Torquay

Just a mile from Torquay's North Quay and Marina, The Briarfields offers boutique-style 5-star gold award luxury accommodation.

Breakfast was really brilliant. The hosts very graciously cooked our food early on the Sunday morning. This was after we had hammered on the door, demanding to be fed. After it was explained that the clocks had gone back, and we had stopped laughing, we ate everything put in front of us. We also left the wedding present on the pavement, they saved it and took it to our venue.
