“We thoroughly enjoyed it and we will definitely be back!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 August 2011

We were welcomed and made to feel at home instantly. You won't find anyone better than the Smyth family to run a bed and breakfast as the teamwork was faultless. Our room was immaculate from the moment we stepped through the door. When returning to our room from days out towels had been changed, tea/coffee making facilities had been replenished and floors had been hoovered. Food was cooked and presented to a high standard every time.

Room Tip: All rooms are to a high standard.

“Highly recommended!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 July 2011

Just back from a weekend break in Paignton, staying for the first time at Sonachan House. Everything was perfect. A lovely welcome with a cup of tea, a map and local info on where to eat and drink. A really good room, bright and spacious with a sea view. Shower was good and the bed comfortable. Breakfast excellent. Would definitely stay here again.

“Best value on the south coast!”

There is simply nothing bad to say about Sonachan House. From the welcome pot of tea on arrival, the friendly hosts have created something close to the perfect B&B here. It's a highly competitive area, but Sonachan House wins on both quality AND price, which takes some doing!

As a single traveller on business, I had a pleasant room with excellent WiFi and a very good flatscreen TV with all the channels. The towels deserve a special mention - beautiful high-quality luxurious towels, and even a face flannel! So many touches that I would expect from a much more expensive guest house. Lovely breakfast too.

I shall certainly be returning.

“No better place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 June 2011

We have stayed at Sonachan House several times and have always received a really warm welcome from Tony & Julie. There's a relaxed atmosphere and the hotel is spotlessly clean. Food is delicious, the banoffee pie is to die for!

There is no better place to stay.

The moment you walk through the door is just like being home from home.
The hotel is just a short distance from Paignton & Goodrington seafronts, shops, bus & train stations where you can travel to other parts of the region easily. On site car parking, gardens, Freeview televisions in all rooms, Wi-Fi, fully stocked bar, large comfortable lounge, ground floor bedrooms available, special offers at certain times of the year and much much more.
Take a look at their website and give it a try - It`s Simply The Best.
