Thoroughly recommend. We went last year for our anniversary. Wendy is lovely and does amazing treatments. Still trying to get back down there. Rooms were all clean and fresh. Just nicely off the main streets but Wendy very kindly drive us to the seafront. 10/10

Set in the heart of Torquay amidst tranquil greenery. Perfect location to get to the evening ambience of the town or a short distance from a number of perfect Sunday strolls along the beach or rolling hillside. Merlewood House really has it all. A beautiful house with sophisticated, chic decor, spacious clean ensuite rooms and a hostess providing not only... More

We had cause to find an 'out of office' location to conduct some development work and have a team meeting. Merlewood House provided everything we could have wanted, warm hospitality, great service, excellent rooms. The atmosphere really helped us relax and get some great work done. I'd recommend it to anyone wanting to get away for a couple of days... More

Superb boutique hotel, the hotel radiates relaxation! The rooms are beautifully decorated with comfortable beds, something many owners neglect! Nothing was too much trouble for the owner Wendy, who was simply charming!

It was 3 very good days, and we got a lot of very good advice regarding road trips and restaurants in the area from Wendy. The room we had was very nice and clean, and the the breakfast was one of the best we... More

The owner (Wendy) has great local knowledge and was able to recommend a great walk and the best places to eat out. I fully recommend... More
