I had a great stay at The Clydesdale. Diane & Tommy were fantastic hosts and nothing was too much trouble. A quiet clean room with comfortable bed, and a cracking full English in the morning. Only a short walk to the town/sea front. I will definitely stay here again when in the area.

the welcome was lovely. As soon as we arrived we were offered a cup of tea. Both Diane and Tommy were very welcoming and friendly. The room was very clean with tea and coffee making facilities and a small fridge. The Clydesdale would certainly be my first place to book if and when we revisit Paignton.

To be welcomed “would you like a brew” on our arrival completely made my wife’s and myself mind we had chosen the correct place. Lovely couple run this guest house. Was spot on for location and also benefitted from being in a quiet road. Easy walk to the beach and town. Look forward to going back.

A Wonderful Stay

The people who run The Clydesdale are fantastic. Nothing is too much trouble and they genuinely want your stay to be comfortable and memorable. I stayed the night before my birthday and even had a birthday card on the breakfast table in the morning! The room was spotlessly clean, the bed was comfortable and I had a superb sleep. Breakfast was a real treat with quality ingredients used in the cooked food, plenty of toast, hot drinks and juices, yogurts etc. A wonderful start to my birthday weekend. I cannot fault anything about my stay and would highly recommend this place if you want quality accommodation at a sensible price.
