We just come back from a holiday in the UK, amongst which two nights at the Longhouse in Sidmouth. We were so happy we chose this place to stay, as it is just wonderful! We will not repeat everything that is already said before in reviews (like a super comfortable and clean room, great view, lovely garden with many nice... More

The Longhouse is perched on top of the hill overlooking Sidmouth and the beautiful Jurassic coast, and it was here that we spent an amazing couple of nights in May 2012. We were greeted with a friendly chat and cup of tea by Lynn and Pete which was perfect after a long drive. We were then shown to our room... More

We found them by chance on a website. We needed a base to continue the South Coast path Walk. So so friendly and so real. Great advice. Great listeners in conversation. They love thdeir job and their service.

We have just returned from a 4 night stay at the Longhouse in Sidmouth and cannot praise it enough. Peter and Lynne are fantastic hosts and nothing is too much trouble. They made us feel really welcome and comfortable. The Longhouse is a beautiful building with great views over Sidmouth. The bedrooms are modern and equipped with all the essentials,... More

This accommodation and it's owners Peter and Lynne truly deserve to be no 1 in Sidmouth - and the South West for that matter! This is more than just a B&B, it's a wonderful experience in hospitality. From the warm welcome to the little touches that show someone is thinking about how to make your stay as nice as possible.... More

We stayed at the longhouse whilst walking the south west coast path. We arrived just as it was getting dark and we immediately knew we had made a good choice when we were made to feel really welcome and offered a much needed cup of tea and a cake. The room was lovely, with lots of thought put in to... More

This is a quick but genuine thank you for this review and the 60 plus before. The biggest pleasure has been meeting such a lovely bunch of people. If there were ever a web site called GuestAdvisor you would all have an excellent overall rating. More

What a B and B! As like MandCP below and many other before, we gambled on Tripadvisor and it paid off in dividends. Location: Atop the observatory hill overlooking Sidmouth, with Salcombe Regis about three quarters of a mile to the west. Next door to the observatory - a clear night sky helps set the atmosphere. Hospitality: second to none....this... More

My wife and I were planning a long weekend in Sidmouth to celebrate her birthday and of course checked out Trip Advisor to see where we could stay. "The Longhouse" was top of the list and having stayed three nights in the Garden Room in early March we now know why! All the reviews had said how wonderful this little... More
