A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Absolutely lovely little guest house, the owners are just the loveliest people and really take pride in their little home from home. Spotlessly clean and lovely breakfast,,cannot fault. Been twice in 3 weeks and will definitely be going back.”
“I’m just back from a 3 night stay at the Sefton Lodge. What a lovely surprise! Great location near the beach, town, shopping, bus and train. Generous English breakfast included as well as tea and coffee in the room. My room was extremely clean and very comfortable. Many thanks to our friendly and welcoming host Steve and his wife for making this stop on my trip from Canada so pleasant.”
“We had a last minute 2 night stay at this fab b & b. We were lucky to have a front balcony double room which was just perfect. The location couldn't of been better, right on the front overlooking the green. The front has entertainment throughout the summer, which we could enjoy from our balcony. Pat sharp was on on the Saturday night. So, after our day enjoying Paignton. We could relax on our balcony listening to the music . On the Sunday morning we went to the car show ( also on the green ) before our return trip home. The room was spotlessly clean & the breakfast was very good too. Would highly recommend. Thanks for a great stay.”
