Elmington House- Adults Only

Lisa was a very gracious host. She looked after us very well. The hotel was convenient to walk to restaurants and good recommendations made. Very clean. Steep Stairs and no lift. Didn’t get to use the pool or grounds as only there two nights. Very very quiet so good nights sleep.

Love this hotel. We’ve just come back from our 3rd visit and the rooms just get better. Lisa, the host and owner is lovely and so bubbly. The garden is huge and stunning and they have a nice big pool too. We overlooked the sea and the fair was in town which we had a slight view of. Breakfast is a large tasty helping. Well cooked and the waitress is a sweetie. This is our first choice of hotel when we go to Torquay and will no doubt go for a 4th visit. Nicely tucked out the way up behind the railway station so not noisy or crowded. Very relaxing. A definite must if you’re thinking of taking a holiday in Torquay. Which in itself is a beautiful place to stay. There’s a very sweet little ginger and white cat that hangs around who is very friendly and that’s always a plus. Fantastic hotel.

What a lovely hotel. Liza the owner cannot do enough to ensure that your stay is perfect. The hotel is quirky, spotlessly clean and like a home from home. The breakfast is freshly cooked to order with all the normal full English items. Great location to visit the local area. We will definitely be returning.

We first stayed at the Elmington Hotel with owner Liza back in July 2022. So positive was our experience that we vowed we would return at the first opportunity. This opportunity came just over a week ago and we were not in any way disappointed. Our planned two night stay became three! The Hotel was quiet and this provided us with the opportunity to get to know the owner Liza a lot better. She has been at the Elmington for many years and therefore knows all there is to know about how to run a hotel and treat her guests. She is a kind, considerate and warm host. The Elmington is well positioned with some rooms looking out over Torquay bay. It has a lovely swimming pool and well kept and extensive gardens. It has generous private car parking and is within walking distance of the railway station and major bus routes into Torquay, Paignton and Brixham. If you feel like walking into Torquay along the water front then this is easily achievable in about 15 minutes or so. The Hotel and rooms are well kept and very clean and the breakfasts are excellent. We had been visitors to Torquay for many years, staying at various guest houses around the town. Although many of these were very good it wasn't until we discovered the Elmington and Liza that we got what we would term the 'full package'. Once again Liza thank you for a most enjoyable stay and experience. We will be back again as soon as possible.

This hotel was a good hotel value for money. Located in a quiet Lane not far from the station and close to the sea. The hotel boasts of a heated swimming pool. With sun loungers on the pool surround, unfortunately there were only 8 of which 2 were you should take towels for the pool as an are provided. The bedrooms very clean and tidy, but lack in in The Small Things you would expect for this type of hotel e.g. refrigerator and a fan. The bathroom consists of a sink a 90 cm shower and a toilet if you're on the large size it will be difficult to get into the shower. The breakfast was very good hot what and fresh with selection of fruit and cereals as well as the traditional English breakfast

Having stayed here before 4 years ago and met 2 couples, who we stayed in touch with. Covid put paid to us all meeting up again. This year finally we had our reunion and of course it was like there had been 4 days not 4 years between visits. Not least because as previously, our dear Treasured friend Liza made us all welcome and we had a wonderful 5 days. As before the breakfasts were PERFECT, the room comfortable and the pool, heated. Liza is the most wonderful lady. An astute business woman with a kind touch and an amazing sense of humour. Thank you again Liza, you're amazing!! See you again soon hopefully.
