Attending a conference in the busy seaside resort of Torquay, I was delighted to find a quiet place to stay at the Hillcroft.

Arrived after 9 pm on a Friday night to a warm welcome and a pot of tea and cake. How better to start a weekend in Torquay?

Everything was totally groovy. We have no hesitation in recommending these super hosts and their very unique offer. If you like different this will be for you. The booked treatment massage that was arranged for me was awesome. Nothing was too much trouble. We loved it and will defo return when next in the area.

We had an excellent weekend at The Hillcroft; the building is full of character, the room was fantastic, all the comforts for a weekend getaway. Hospitality was fantastic, nothing is too much trouble, and the proprietors have excellent knowledge of the area (where to eat/drink). Already booked to go back for New Year, excellent getaway, thank you

Everything to do with our stay was really positive. Stuart was incredibly friendly and hospitable and gave us good advice on how to spend our short stay in Torquay. The hotel is lovely and we were very impressed and pleased with our room. The breakfast was great too. I'm recommend The Hillcroft to anyone. Many thanks,Tim & Mary
