Kingston House

From the moment we arrived we knew we were in for a treat! Beautiful accommodation. The cream tea on arrival was such a lovely thoughtful touch too. Our room was clean, spotless and extremely comfortable. The little extras were brilliant too.. From the fresh milk in the fridge, windows that open ( some hotels we have stayed the windows don't open at all!) toiletries and some yummy chocolates too. We also liked the mini bar just incase you fancied a snack or drink. The bed was extremely comfortable too, I didn't want to get out of it Saturday morning ha ha! The breakfast each morning was amazing... Considering we have been and stayed at The Langham in London... The breakfast at Kingston House and our room /overall facilities totally pooped over our stay at The Langham... The breakfast was fresh, delicious and tasty. Michael is a great chef! The setting for the breakfast was lovely too I love the nautical decor. Allison and Michael are such lovely hosts, nothing is too much for them, they genuinely care about their guests ( Langham hotel take note!) and we really enjoyed our stay. I loved how the hotel was only a 15/20 minutes walk away (depends how quick you walk) from the harbour.. the walk was a lovely walk too especially through the Abbey. We will definitely be staying here again when coming to Torquay, wouldn't stay anywhere else as you literally have everything at Kingston House! Thoroughly recommend. Thank you Allison and Michael for a gorgeous welcome and stay X

The breakfast was exceptional, with a wide selection ranging from a perfectly cooked FULL ENGLISH to a good selection of cereals, yoghurts with fruit and muesli, and locally sourced bread, all excellently presented by our lovely hosts ALLISON and MICHAEL, who we very friendly and pleasant, and sociably engaging with info of the local area and activities to do which enhanced the holiday experience greatly. WELL DONE. The bedrooms and bathrooms were of a high standard and serviced regularly. ALLISON and MICHAEL thank you so much you were brilliant, we could not have asked for better hosts and your B and B is fantastic, we will DEFINITELY be returning next year. Michael keep up the good work in the kitchen your cooking skills put Gordon Ramsey to shame ( your fried bread was lovely) and Allison you to were amazing serving the breakfast and ensuring we had all we needed to enjoy the excellent food . WEEL DONE TO YOU BOTH See you both on our next visit, kind regards to you both and the family.

There was nothing I did not like about the holiday, the accommodation, surrounding area and the amenities were excellent, definitely worth another visit next year

We stayed 3 nights at the lovely Kingston House and what a treat! Alli & Michael are the most friendly hosts and I can see why it has 5* ratings. Spotlessly clean, light and airy. Our room was lovely and had everything you could want, hairdryer, toiletries and a little chocolate treat left on the bed to name a few. Such a lovely comfy bed, which we needed after our long coastal walks! Great location with onsite parking, meaning we didn’t use our car at all until we left. Breakfasts were absolutely delicious (thank you Michael) and kept us going for the day. Special mention to Alli’s breakfast sundae, which I loved! You are a fab team! I would highly recommend staying here and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. Thank you Alli & Michael xx

Superb hosting, wonderfully clean, excellent breakfast, nothing too much trouble. From the time myself and partner arrived, to us leaving - even though there were other guests - we were made to feel as if we were the only ones in the hotel. The hotel is spotless throughout, well maintained and clearly the owners will add to the hotel as time goes on. The breakfasts - all I'll say is that you are set up for the day should you so wish. Again, Alli and Michael catered to everything they possibly could. When you go away, every once in a while you will find a diamond. This is a diamond with a platinum outer layer that is well worth the visit.

Nothing was disliked.

Alli and Michael were extraordinarily good hosts. Friendly and welcoming, with a plethora of ideas and suggestions to maximise our trip to Torquay. Nothing was too much trouble. The property is quite rightly 5* rated tastefully decorated and exceptionally clean with an expansively comfortable bed, en-suite, air con and hand made truffles on the pillow. A superb team, Alli and Mike shone during breakfast service with a naturally gregarious style and sense of fun they ensured all the guests were catered for and looked after. The breakfast choices were extensive, tasty and beautifully cooked. An excellent boutique hotel which we look forward to visiting again. Thank you both for welcoming us and providing such a wonderful stay for us both.

Alli and Michael were just the best hosts possible. They are very welcoming and friendly, and have some great local knowledge of the Torbay area. Michael's cooking was outstanding and the breakfasts were top notch. The property is absolutely spotless with all the facilities you need. We had a lovely weekend in Torquay and this made it just that little bit more special. We would 100% stay with them again and would highly recommend the Kingston House to anyone. It's about a 15 minute walk to the seafront and a nice quiet spot.

There is nothing negative to say. We had a fantastic weekend.

What a fabulous stay - would highly recommend. Spotlessly clean in a great location. The Devon tea on arrival was a real treat and the hosts were friendly, warm, chatty and very knowledgeable about the area. Our room was lovely - light and airy with crisp bedding, a stocked fridge and snacks available. The little chocolates on the bed were a very cute touch. The shower was hot and powerful and the White Stuff toiletries a lovely treat. The breakfasts were delicious with plenty of choice - Michael bosses at the full English - perfect eggs and must not forget the moist bacon with a crispy edge (and no fat!) mmmmmmmmmmm. We couldn't fault our stay and will definitely visit again.

I can not fault Kingston House or the hosts. There was absolutely nothing to dislike or complain about. It was perfect in every way.

Alli and Michael were very welcoming. The room was perfect, lots of detail and we were short of nothing. The fridge stocked with refreshments was a welcome treat and more than fairly priced. The air conditioning was a godsend as it was very warm during our stay. Would highly recommend staying at Kingston House. Thank you for everything, New York Amy!

I think to suggest there was anything we didn't like would be very harsh and picky! The stay was perfect and far exceeded our expectations. Lovely presented guest house, can't wait to visit again.

Can honestly say this was the best accommodation we have stayed in. Location cleanliness food owners price and OMG the breakfast was 5 Star. I've ran out of superlatives on how amazing our stay was. We definitely arrived as strangers and left as friends. It was my birthday the week we stayed and the owners Michael and Alison made me feel so special. We are definitely coming back

Going home I'd wish we could have stayed for another week

Michael & Alli were the perfect hosts for our stay in Torquay. So welcoming with nothing too much trouble for them. The house decor was so tastefully done & spotlessly clean. We loved everything about Kingston House. The breakfast is highly recommended. Everything freshly prepared & served with a welcoming smile & interesting banter by Michael & Alli. We highly recommend you stay at Kingston House.

There was nothing we did nt like about our stay at Kingston House
