Its home from home for us now. Marion and Les are the most amazing hosts and greeted us like old friends.We decided to stay in the... More

Have to say that our stay in the Charterhouse was superb. We love the area and had seen the hotel on a previous break, so booked up this time around and werent disappointed. During our 2 night stay, we felt very welcome. Marion and Les have a lovely hotel in surroundings to match. The garden/sea view from an immaculate room... More

We have just returned from a very enjoyable stay with Marion and Les at The Charterhouse, our room was lovely with first class facilities and a WOW bathroom, fluffy towels and bath robes. My husband had a birthday while we were there and Marion put roses and birthday cake in our room, thank you Marion for making it so special.... More

Just had a superb 3 night stay at The Charterhouse. We were escaping the dismal weather in Scotland with our dog for a few days and followed the sun to Torquay. We hit upon The Charterhouse because they allow dogs in their garden rooms and we're very glad we did. Lovely room, lovely facilities and a superb welcome. Marion was... More

Awesome from the start! Arrived after driving non stop 200 miles from Dartford, Kent, we were welcomed by an enthusiastic-friendly-bubbly Marion - the life and soul of The Charterhouse at Torquay. Refreshing pot of Assam tea, Marion quickly planned our itinerary for the next few days. Our family room was fabulous and nice clean rooms and well lit bathrooms greeted... More

This wonderful Edwardian building and the friendly welcome from the effervescent Marion made our two day stay so much better than expected. The Riviera Room is truly worth the extra with its fabulous comfy bed and the double aspect view of both the garden and the sea, plus the huge ensuite luxury bathroom (including fluffy white bathrobes). Everything was very... More

We stayed at the Charterhouse with two of our friends on the 20th April for three nights. The welcome we received from Marion made us feel at home right away. The rooms were homely, and very clean with all the facilities you could wish for.We are still talking about the Breakfasts, superb, especially the home made jams marmalade and bread... More

First, Marion and Les are great. They are incredibly thoughtful, helpful and inviting. They made our stay a real pleasure - and very easy with little kids. I find travelling with kids is tough and few hotels are set up to make it easier. The Charterhouse put us in a room with an adjoining single bedroom, so that the adults... More
