    limited dining options

    The hospitality at Shirley Bed & Breakfast was exceptional, with Nick and Chen going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. The breakfast served daily was remarkable, featuring a hearty full English that provided a great start to each day, along with a selection of cereals and fresh fruit. My room was clean, cozy, and well-appointed, allowing for a restful night after work commitments.

    Had to deal with a minor plumbing issue.

    incredible hosts
    comfortable room

    Perfect for a relaxing family stay.

    The hosts were just incredible, always there to help, like when they made our breakfast exactly how we wanted it every morning. And the room had this fridge stocked with fresh milk and biscuits, what a nice touch, it felt like they really cared about our comfort.

    It wasn’t cheap, but considering the hospitality and comfort, I’d say it was reasonable.

    spacious room
    noisy environment
    thin walls

    The welcoming hosts made us feel at home, and the breakfast options were certainly commendable. The room was spacious and remarkably clean, yet it was a bit noisy at times, possibly due to the thin walls. a nice stay with areas for improvement.

    definitely coming here again

    Such a lovely stay! The room had all the essentials like a flat-screen TV, electric kettle, and a mini fridge stocked with water and milk. Daily room service kept everything spotless. The breakfast was amazing with locally sourced ingredients. They had homemade marmalade. It's just a short walk to the harbor which was super convenient!

    warm hospitality
    delicious breakfast

    Solo traveler absolute gem

    The best part of my stay was definitely the service from Nick and Chen, they made me feel welcome right from the start. The breakfast they serve is unbeatable, a full English that really hit the spot after a long day of sightseeing.

    It wasn't exactly a bargain, but honestly, the experience was worth every penny.

    Exceptional Hospitality and Breakfast

    Nick and Chen are the most wonderful hosts who truly go above and beyond to ensure your stay is comfortable. The breakfast they serve is a standout feature, especially the delicious homemade marmalade that adds a personal touch. Our room was clean and cozy, providing the peaceful retreat we needed after exploring Torquay. A small drawback was the steep steps leading to the entrance, which might be challenging for some guests.

    I adored the beautifully appointed dining room, adorned with charming architectural prints and elegant decor. The gentle slope to the town made it accessible for my walks, allowing me to enjoy the surrounding beauty of Torquay.

    Steps at the entrance may pose a challenge.

    Exceptional Stay with Charming Hosts!

    We spent four delightful nights in a cozy Budget Double Room. The hosts went above and beyond, with breakfast that felt like a special occasion each morning. A lovely stroll to the town includes a stunning sea view, just watch out for the hill back! Park your car and unwind.
