Excellent value, most people there, have been back multiple times.Posted on Tripadvisor Annette HApril 25, 2026 Our second home, brilliant hotel. We stayed on the 17th April, absolutely brilliant weekend once again, we have been many times before and it is lovely that the staff recognise you. Our driver John picked us up from Cosham, he was very friendly and helpful, also it was lovely to see Dean the welsh coach driver again, he is a star with his passengers. Our sea view room was spacious and very clean. All the staff are vey friendly, in reception and Karen, Jason in restaurant and Mari in housekeeping, we never want to go home after our stays. Compliments to the kitchen staff the food is superb. Steve and Laura are a great team, we love watching their performances. Only downside was the coach trip to Babacombe, it was very boring not a lot to see, Teignmouth and Torquay was great. We look forward to visiting again soon, keep up the good work!Posted on Tripadvisor Mair PApril 20, 2026 Great weekend at Templestow Hotel Lovely hotel except for all the steps to get to our room.
