At the rate being charged, this is a good deal. Don`t be expecting too much more though than a good clean room and shower area with not much space, but a top firm firm mattress. The owners are progressively moving towards room only so I cannot comment on breakfast. 40 minute walk to the centre of Torquay and well placed... More

Had a great night stay this weekend. We are in Torquay a lot due to our son and grandchildren living down there. We have stayed in lots of B&Bs over the years and this is one of the best we have ever stayed in. Spotlessly clean.... will not hesitate in staying here again. :)

My daughter and I travelled from Singapore to the UK for her entrance into university. We love Agatha Christie, so we had a mother/daughter retreat in Torquay. Fairways was our home base. Lovely breakfasts, including my gluten free needs, a clean room, and walking distance to everything we wanted to do. And some nice restaurants just up the road when... More

My husband and I stayed at Fairways for 3 nights, Aug 4th 2012, for my up and coming 60th birthday! Susan and Anthony are new owners from May 2012. They are doing an exceptional job! I had phoned a couple of days before for a double room, none were available, but Anthony offered me the family room for the same... More

We stayed at fairways during the august bank holiday weekend. Upon arrival we were given a warm welcome and shown to our large and exceptionally clean room. Being first time visitors to Torquay we were unsure of where to go and what to do, the guide in our room told us the best places to eat out as well as... More

We booked this as a quick break when the business was under previous ownership and had above average reviews. For a hotel that describes and sells family rooms we felt with our 18 month old son uncomfortable. We were given a box to place our sons nappies in although we used nappy bags and received a comment that they smell,... More

This is the first time and me and my Fiancee have stayed in a B&B so we wanted to see how this was. We found it homely and very personable :) The breakfast was really nice and they remembered what you liked and didn't like. We found the owners friendly and pleasurable. The location was great and the rooms were... More
