The owner was extremely welcoming and helpful throughout my four night stay. He was interested in my stay without being intrusive, making suggestions about eateries and places to visit. It was much appreciated.

Ideal for a weekend stay
Pros:

Lovely hotel with a great view of the sea. Staff were amazing and always had tips and helpful ideas. Parking was a bonus. We had an early check out and Peter ensured that our breakfast was ready and that we were able eat before we left.

Cons:

For us, the bed was a little uncomfortable but that is probably personal preference.

Grosse Enttäuschung, Abzockerei!
Pros:

Die Einrichtung, die Lage.

Cons:

Es wurde als 5 Sternhotel deklariert, in Realität ist es ein Bed & Breakfast. Kein Lift, der Hausherr nahm den kleinen Koffer, mein gehbehinderter Mann musste den grossen Koffer in den 2.Stock tragen. Weil wir das Frühstücksblatt am Vorabend nicht ausgefüllt haben, bekamen wir am folgenden Morgen nichts zu essen. Was für ein 5 Sternhotel!!!

Heaven
Pros:

I was travelling solo so I had a single room which was small, but perfect for me. I had a side-view of the sea and the coast down towards Brixham and Berry Head and a beautiful window seat which allowed me to take it all in. It was exceptionally clean and the bed was comfy. Shower and toilet were spotless and the shower was a rainfall shower which I did not expect. It was brilliant. I ate at the restaurant the first night and had breakfast both mornings and the food was delicious.

Cons:

My stay was faultless, apart from the weather and I won't blame Peter for that.

Tranquil location and very relaxing
Pros:

The location was absolutely stunning right next to the beach and easy walk to a few coves.

Breakfast was nice outside but do prefer to choose in the morning rather than the night before on what we would like to eat. Overall loved the mix of options (pancakes really nice!) and only wish the cooked breakfast was bigger as the food was very tasty.

Cons:

Bathroom in room 10 is small, which was fine for me (5ft 2) but a squeeze for my husband at 6ft 1.

Pros:

if your stuffed on an attic, with no proper sink, very small, unbearably hot with limited ventilation options, that has NOTHING to do with a 5* hotel. We will make a formal complaint, customers are misguided! Its 3* at best.

Cons:

live up to the 5* hotel, and not just want to make money

Lovely hotel, with great facilities and amazing staff
Pros:

Quiet, wonderful location! The staff were amazing, Peter was very friendly, helpful and approachable. The room was lovely with a fantastic view, food in the Bistro was incredible.

Cons:

The only downside was the pillows were a little soft and the duvet thick, when the weather was hot. There was however a portable air conditioning unit in the room which was very much appreciated

Short, excellent break
Pros:

The whole trip from start to finish was amazing. The hotel was clean, comfortable and relaxed, staff were attentive, friendly and helpful at all times. The food was exceptional, and variety for breakfast was perfect. As a sole traveller, I felt included and looked after. My room was amazing and felt more than 5 star. It sas spacious and not like other single rooms ive stayed in.
Tea and coffee and biscuits in the room were plentiful.
A big thank you.

Cons:

There was nothing to dislike.
