"Wonderful :-)"

9.0

Ed was extremely accommodating when we arrived at the property. He was patient and kind and even took the time to chat with us whilst we enjoyed a coffee. We were made to feel at home almost instantly and nothing was any bother. The room was clean and comfortable and the views from the front were fabulous. Ed accommodated a lovely breakfast before we left, which consisted of fruits, pastries and a mixture of juices. We also had a cooked English breakfast, which was delicious! My partner was feeling a bit delicate before we left (too much beer the night before) and Ed even made sure we were well equipped for our journey home! Thank you Babbacombe Downs. You made us feel very welcome.

"Very good, great location, peaceful"

The location beautiful views and walking distance to the theatre and other restaurants. Fantastic evening meal and breakfast. Generous portions.

The hotel was a bit dated and the room was a little bit cramped but cosy and homely.
