- Andrew (10/5): - This B and B was spot on
- Vanessa (10/5): Vanessa's stay - Very comfortable room. Would prefer a room on a lower floor.
- Thomas (10/5): Merridale guesthouse - I stayed at the merridale guesthouse for 4 nights whilst on a 4 day getaway in paignton.
The room I was in was on the top floor hence had a good view over the park. The bed was comfortable and I slept really well. The room had a small TV and had tea and coffee. The bathroom had the usual facilities you would find in a bathroom, the shower was powerful which was nice. I had a fan also as the temperature was very hot during my stay. Full English breakfast and cereal free which was very nice. Janet and Bryan are very friendly and do their upmost to ensure you're stay is good, highly reccomend ed.
- Graham (8/5): - A good place to stay.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very comfortable and well located guest house with friendly and helpful hosts.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Paignton usual - Needs a bit of updating but is fine
- Sandy (8/5): Close to beach and park , parking facilities - Everything ok except for breakfast issues. Was asked what we wanted for breakfast before we even saw the room. Preordering didn't make things go quicker, one of our party was told it would take longer because he had ordered poached egg on his breakfast, and it did. I didn't want cooked the first morning and asked for toast. There was cereal and fruit juice but no yogurt or fruit of any kind,so I literally only had toast! on the second morning I decided to have cooked and was informed she didn't think they had catered for an extra breakfast. The cook said it was ok but she made me feel uncomfortable.
I wouldn't return because of the breakfast issues because I don't always know the day before what I would like. Shame really because otherwise it's a great little b&b and very friendly.
- Pete and Polly (10/5): Local facilities easily accessible

- Sarah (10/5): Quiet location-walk everywhere. - We enjoyed 3 nights here. The location is quiet and overlooks the park,yet it's walking distance to the beach,restaurants and train and bus stations.
The owners are friendly and helpful. The English breakfast will keep you going well into the day.
- Lynda (8/5): Nice guest house close to the shops and beach. - Good hosts, gave us keys for front doors and room. We opted for a twin room which was nice and clean with comfortable beds, maybe slightly on the small side.
- Tracie (10/5): Fantastic place - Great place
- Tim (10/5): Paignton - well worth a visit. - Lovey couple who met me on reception and looked after me. Room excellent and breakfast was perfect.
- Karl (10/5): Top Guest House - We have been 3 times now to Merridale, and as Guest houses go this one is one of the best we have stayed in. The location is great for the beach, the town and all sorts of local entertainment, there are plenty of pubs around and lots of varied places to eat. While Sandra & Mark are at Merridale we will not look to book anywhere else for a stay at Paignton, their hospitality is 1st class and they are always trying to get even better as we have noticed on our 3 visits.
- ian (10/5): - We had an excellent stay and we welcomed on arrival. Breakfast was very good and lots of it. My wife asked for poached eggs which was no problem and the owners were genuinely interested in our day. Would definitely stay again.
- Robert (8/5): Our own - Very helpful proprietors - we enjoyed our stay!
- Bernard (10/5): - Very nice and clean. Room was a bit on the small size for a double.
- Graham (10/5): - excellent, good food, very welcoming couple. will stay again
- Mrs Thelma (10/5): - Very clean and comfortable bed. Breakfast very nice and filling. Sandra and Mark very nice people and work hard. Would definitely stay there again close to all amenities.
- Jo (10/5): Wonerful. Home from home. - This was my second stay and will continue to do so. Mark and Sandra are wonderful and I was gutted that I didn't get the time to have a good lengthy natter this time. Sausages are still amazing and if nithing else a return visit for them alone is worth the M4!
- SR (6/5): Short break - friendly, car space very tight but apart from that very enjoyable. I had separate shower and toilet facilities shame but very clean and tidy breakfast good choice and well cooked, a big thanks to all Sandra and mark.
- JOHN (10/5): paignton - enjoyed our stay
- di (10/5): Lovely place fab owners - Mark and Sandra cannot do enough for you, very nice room and very clean. Fantastic breakfast. Full English and/ or toast and cereal.

- RICHARD (10/5): First class - Really enjoyed our stay at Merriedale, very friendly hosts
everything lovely and clean, super breakfasts, and perfect position.
- richard (10/5): ANOTHER GREAT STAY AT THE MERRIDALE - This was our second stay at the Merriedale and it was equally as good as the first time.
Sandra and Mark really have got everything spot on, from the welcome when you arrive to the goodbye when you leave.
This place is immaculately maintained, and cleanliness is second to none.
The breakfasts are very good with a variety of cereals, yogurts, juices, toast, tea and coffee and of course the excellent full English which is very well presented.
The property is in an excellently location, which includes parking in a very quiet location but littery only 5 minuets from the beach and town centre.
The Meriedale has free WIFI which all adds up to a great package at a very reasonable price.
Do not hesitate to book this great B&B you will not be disappointed.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great service, great location, will definitely return.......
- Bruce (10/5): Clean; comfortable guest house. - Excellently run guest house with charming hosts - Sandra & Mark. Clean, comfortable room with all amenities. Easy 5min. walk to town centre or beach; and 10min. walk to train & bus stations.
Provided me with thoroughly relaxed holiday I needed!
- Davis (10/5): An absolute must - Impeccably clean, impeccably friendly and welcoming. Travelling as a single person I didn’t feel uneasy, in fact quite the opposite. Parking was right out front, off road with plenty of local amenities and in a quiet location. Oh and the cooked breakfast was to die for. Although I had read good reviews before booking, if I had really understood how nice the proprietors and my stay would be I would have booked an extra day. I certainly plan returning next year if not this autumn/winter.
- pascal (8/5): tres proche autoroute mais sans bruit - pratique
- Jeff Cherie (8/5): Pleasing hotel - We found the hotel to be a very comfortable experience, the owners are very friendly and helpful with an excellent breakfast. Ample free car parking and free Wi-fi . The only thing was the room was a bit small. The hotel was well situated close to beach and town centre..
- Gunnar (10/5): Et lite men veldig hyggelig hotel - Rommet er ikke av de største, men tilstanden er meget god. Personalet er kjempetrivelige og tar godt vare på deg. Beliggenheten er fantastisk, bare et par kvartaler til resturanter, butikker, og strand.
- PeterL (8/5): Good Quality - The owners are very friendly, the breakfast very good, the hotel very clean and welcoming. Recommended

- Jessica (8/5): Family break - We had a lovely little holiday. Brilliant location. Sandra and mark were so welcoming and lovely, would highly recommend this guest house if you are looking for a nice break. Will be going back.
- c hughes (8/5): good location short walk to shopping street & beac - pleasant & clean hotel room short walk to shopping street owners very pleasant & welcoming
- JBH (8/5): Very welcoming - I booked this as a last minute thing as my Mother was taken ill. The accomodation was fine & the breakfast huge. I would use them again
- satisfied holidaymaker (10/5): great location - When arriving at this hotel we found a very warm welcome, a pot of coffee and a very friendly chat about the area and where to go and where to eat. The room was clean with plenty of space and storage. breakfast was very good with full English or any variety we chose to have. Location is great with a nice park within 50mtrs, shopping centre 5mins walk, sea front 5 mins walk and railway station 5mins walk. Will definitely be returning to stay at Merriedale Guest House in the future.
- Kerry (10/5): Fantastic trip - We had a wonderful stay at merriedale. The host and hostess were absolutely lovely friendly and welcoming. The hotel was clean and comfortable. The food was excellent. Overall fantastic stay would def recommend and would go again
- davies (10/5): happy customer - Very pleasant few days. Friendly staff. Good food.
- N & S (10/5): Nice Guesthouse - Decent sized bedroom, powerful shower, hearty breakfast, great location (close to the beach) and very friendly hosts.
- Bikerboy (10/5): Fantastic service - Would certainly recommend a stay at this B&B. Everything was top-notch and the service was excellent. Will be booking again.
- Sara (6/5): Wouldnt come back but did the job - Our room was absolutely freezing! There was one little radiator to warm the entire room and it just didnt do the job. The guest house was what you would expect from a guest house really. The staff seemed friendly, and the breakfast was served quickly (although wasnt the best). The parking wasnt ideal and we had to move our car to a loading only bay to let other cars out (as you have no choice but to block cars in). The "ensuite" was pretty terrible too, just a toilet & shower squeezed into a cupboard and the sink on the other side of the bedroom. Overall it did the job, but I wouldnt be booking a night here again.
