Karen an absolutely amazing host, so calm and friendly, everywhere so clean, Karen and southbourne villa would win top marks on 4 in a bed! The breakfast was much needed after a few drinks the nights before, we stayed 3 nights and did not want to leave, we were in rm 7, the shower was a double shower, but the shower was not overly powerful, all rooms were en-suite, the walk into torquay was so nice but I would recommend a taxi back, we used bay taxi's at a reasonable price around £7-£8, our room was a nice seaside theme, the mattress was a little soft for me but i slept, the radiator was fully adjustable and plenty of windows that could be opened, our view wasn't the sea but the little courtyard with lots of greenery and bird song, plenty of parking, little fridge in our room which was handy, the breakfast was the best we had ever had! Fresh cut up fruits, seeds, nuts, yogurt, cereals, porridge, all the jams and sauces, Karen had handmade whisky marmalade and lemon marmalade both tasted amazing, you could have a choice of a few breakfasts and smaller breakfast items too, absolutely nothing to complain about! Southbourne villa felt very homely, Karen likes her ornaments/antiques and pictures, with some quirky items thrown in to look at, thanks Karen we will definitely be coming back!
