It was a lovely room, very light and airy. It was very clean with a large comfy bed and we both slept really well. The breakfast was great with a good selection of cereal, home made jams and yogurt. The full English was lovely too. The hosts were very friendly and went out of their way to make you feel at home. We had a great stay and would highly recommend it 👌
We didn't realise how far we were away from the town centre as my partner has bad legs we had to get a taxi or bus into town but it didn't put us out too much as we still enjoyed and on the upside it was peaceful.

Lisa and Christophe were very friendly and welcoming. Room was a dog friendly room but you would never have known, as spotlessly clean and no dog smells. Modern bathroom and freshly decorated. Fresh milk in the fridge waiting and water, lovely touch. Slept very well. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious, lots of choices.Superb scrambled eggs and salmon, compliments to the chef! Ideal location for all Torquay has to offer but not in the hustle bustle part, so nice and quiet, just what we wanted. Lovely lounge and outdoor sitting area, pool and garden. Well done both👏👏
Nothing, all good

Everything!! The hosts were just so accommodating and would help with any request. Having a mobile number to send messages was so convenient. The breakfast- great system and the food was fresh and so tasty. Facilities- we made use of the pool each day and chilled in the garden. The room- we had the ground floor room with a patio that led to the swimming pool. My son absolutely loved this and great to get on the garden and car park. The room was clean and contained everything that we needed. The bathroom was a good size and with a decent shower. The toiletries were amazing- quality and not cheap. Location- short drive from the heart of Torquay.
Nothing- everything was great for us.

The Charterhouse is a gem of a place to stay. It is on a very quiet road which is lovely to come back to after a night out in the busy town. Parking was on site with no problems with coming and going. Lisa, our host, was so very welcoming nothing was too much trouble for her. Our room was beautifully clean and well presented with plenty of tea, coffee, hot chocolate and bottled water on arrival, and replenished frequently. We had one of the 2 garden rooms with our own little patio and table and chairs which was such an added bonus. The swimming pool was lovely, again very clean and looked after. The breakfast menu was exceptional thanks to Christoph. There was a selection of cereals, yoghurt, jams and marmalades all sourced from local farms etc. There is a great bus service at the bottom of the road numbers 12 and 22 which will take you straight into town or the opposite way into Paignton. Thank you again Lisa and Christoph. An absolute wonderful stay.

Myself & my partner had a lovely stay here, we brought our dog with us, and lisa & Christoph went above & beyond to go out of the way for us. to accommodate all that we needed, they made us very welcome. The Breakfast was excellent with locally sourced ingredients, the room & bed very comfortable, shower lovely hot super soft towels & lots of added extras left for us to use ie hairdryer shower gel hair shampoo hand-wash, we would definitely recommend here, and will be back to stay again.

The people running the place were charming and couldn't do enough to help us, from suggestions of great local places to refills on the complementary tea coffee and milk. The room was charming and clean with decent facilities and plenty of storage space. The pool was unfortunately closed as we visited in the off season but I can imagine that being a real treat during the summer months. The location was superb, an easy walk into town along the shore front and right next to the main bus lines if you were travelling further.

The Charterhouse is in a lovely location and is a beautiful property within easy reach to the town and surrounding areas. Our hosts were really welcoming. Felt really homely and nothing was too much trouble. Facilities were good and they also offer relaxing spa treatments. The breakfasts were fantastic quality and cooked to perfection. My son absolutely loved playing in the pool and gardens. Will definitely be back and would highly recommend.
There no negatives really, the room/hotel had everything that we needed.

The location was ideal with lovely hospitable owners Lisa and Christophe. Our room had everything we needed including a huge bed, fridge with fresh milk, tea/coffee making facilities, ensuite bathroom with large walk-in shower. We had a wonderful freshly cooked breakfast each morning. We cannot think of anything at The Charterhouse that could have been better.
There was nothing to dislike.

We return to the Charterhouse a couple of times each year. This is the Best Guest House in Torquay! Lisa and Cristophe are always welcoming, and the location is superb! You are a short walk from the Sea Front where you can walk into town or jump on the bus to other locations as the bus stops are situated there. Breakfast is always amazing with a wide selection of food, which are from local suppliers. Lisa and Cristophe also supply free parking, and they have gardens where you can sit and relax. The Charterhouse also has a pool.
