Very clean and well maintained room. Excellent breakfast cooked to order. Lisa was friendly and helpful throughout. A good base to stay, short walk to bus stops for frequent services across Torbay. Easy access to Cockington village. A very pleasant stay.

I can see why The Charterhouse has so many 5* reviews, it’s a little gem within walking distance of Cockington and Torquay. We stayed for a short two night break in one of the garden rooms (Room 1). Spotlessly clean, warm and a comfy bed. The breakfast as previous reviews are excellent. Good selection of cereals, juice, yoghurts and home made jams not forgetting the cooked breakfast which was prepared and cooked to the highest standard. Thank you we will definitely return and can highly recommend

My husband and myself recently returned from a two night stay at this lovely hotel. Lisa and Anais were very welcoming and friendly. Our home had a lovely sea view and was very comfortable. The bed and pillows were comfortable, lovely white fluffy towels and nice toiletries, the tea tray was well stocked with good quality tea, biscuits etc, I especially liked having fresh milk in the fridge . This was also great for wine and beer😀. The breakfast was really nice with a good selection of choices and great quality produce. I especially liked the yogurts and homemade jams . The area has many lovely places nearby to explore.We particularly like Babbacombe, Dartmouth and Salcombe. If you want a lovely cream tea visit Angels on Babbacombe downs you won’t be disappointed. There are many places to eat in Torquay this visit we found a quirky little pub called The hole in the wall , there was a winter deal on two meals and a bottle of wine for 39.95 . It was very tasty . I would definitely recommend the Charterhouse and hopefully will return soon.

We have just come back from a weekend staying at The Charterhouse. Lisa was an excellent host, nothing was too much trouble. Lovely comfortable room with home comforts, thoughtful little touches to the room made it feel warm and inviting. Christophe cooked a very tasteful breakfast. The location was ideal just off the seafront.

A long weekend visit on probably the worst weekend with Storm Darragh hitting…we had the dog with us who usually sleeps in the vehicle which is specially adapted for her…but Lisa said would we like to swap rooms so the dog could stay with us with the storm hitting…she very quickly put us fresh milk, teas & coffee in the other room which was spacious clean and comfortable… We had a wonderful stay with a great breakfast every morning! Would highly recommend a stay here in in a great location and you’ll be very well looked after!!

We had an excellent stay at the Charterhouse in Torquay. We stayed in room 14 which was large with an excellent Seaview. An amazingly comfortable bed. Breakfasts were superb with plenty of choices and all hot food cooked very nicely. Lisa was a fabulous host and nothing was to much trouble. Parking on the property could not have been any easier. We will definitely be looking to stay again on our next visit to Torquay.

Warm friendly welcome from Lisa who gave plenty of information useful for our stay. The room was clean and cosy with a good selection of usual refreshments. Lots to choose from at breakfast. Good coffee and the black pudding was the best I've had! Highly recommended.
