My room was very clean and tidy. Nothing is too much trouble. Will book for next year. Overall a very enjoyable... More

With a pink and purple theme this hotel could be considered quirky but don't be put off, Only a rail line between you and the beach (fun, not intrusive), spotlessly clean rooms, great service from the owners, with nothing ever too much trouble (how nice in this day and age) the station a very short walk away, town amenities on...

Everything is all together in a bright spacious area with such great service and breakfast! You are guaranteed a very warm welcome (a cup of tea) and the fantastic proprietors will care for... More

Very friendly place. Superb views of the bay, especially from our room, which had a balcony. Excellent breakfast, which was cooked individually for us and brought to our room. Especially good if travelling by public transport - close to the station and bus stops. Also has its own private car park. Will definitely return next year. Very popular - lots... More

The Blenheim is perfectly situated overlooking the beach and sea, close to gardens, shops, buses and trains. The rooms are well-furnished and maintained, with everything you could wish for on your holiday. Above all, Ann and Alan genuinely care for all their guests - which is why so many return year after year.

Home from home. Had a lovely break last week-end. We visit every year and have stayed in most of the rooms. Clean well equiped, every thing you could possible want. Ann is very friendly and aims to please. Tea made on arrival. Breakfast is brilliant and brought to your room. Can`t speak highly enough of the friendly service.

Friendly owners. Clean well equipped rooms with magnificent views. Great situation for travelling by public transport - bus stop at the door and train station two minutes away. Nice and quiet with lots of regular visitors. Looking forward to my next two visits in June and October. Ann McD

We are obviously concerned to receive such a review, cleanliness is part of our prime priorities here at The Blenheim and with any issue I hope I would have dealt with it in a professional and courteous manner. It is my policy always to ask guests if everything is satisfactory after the first night. Obviously on this occasion there were... More

We stayed in the Puffin which was just spectacular. Lots of room, stunning views over Dawlish and the bay, very well equipped, clean and tidy yet homely. Excellent service, fab breakfasts delivered to your door. Very close to all Dawlish has to offer as well as rail and bus links.
