This should not be discounted due to the low price. The thing that makes this hotel special is the proprietors. Lovely people, and nothing is too much trouble. The breakfast is lovely and PIPING hot and freshly cooked. I was a single traveller for business, but would not hesitate taking my partner if wexwere visiting the area again. Could have stayed with a chain, but glad i didnt. I totally understand the rating 😀

Great quiet place
Lovely tucked away place so very peaceful, not too far a walk into main Torquay. Room was very clean and tidy, lots of nice little touches. Was cleaned and replenshed every morning. Cath was a great host, very personable, chatty and friendly. It was my partners birthday so she put up a little birthday banner in the morning at breakfast. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was fantastic, plenty to offer. Would highly recommend and go back.

We had a fantastic stop over at the Brantwood. Room was spotless and lovely comfy bed. Cathy did us a wonderful vegan breakfast; filled us to the brim. Really obliging about parking. B&B is well positioned and only a short walk to the harbour front. Looking forward to our next stay.

I'll be back
This is now the third time I have stayed, twice last year and once this year. The Brantwood is an excellent B & B with everything you want from a B & B, great welcoming attentive hosts, spotlessly clean rooms and ensuites together with really good breakfasts, lovely omelettes and delicious full English's, really comfortable beds AND they have a car park. You really could not ask for more
