Warm welcome and hospitality from hosts Matt and Lissanne, decor of the room was wonderful, comfy bed with lots of cushions, delicious breakfast with daily specials and plenty of suggestions for things to do and places to eat provided in the room and communal areas, as well as before we arrived via helpful links from the hosts. The building was nice and rooms were all spotless and well-maintained. Easy to get to, and walk to the waterfront.

Check out could be a little later (11 rather than 10am, to allow a bit more time after breakfast) and hairdryer cord didn't stretch enough to use at the dressing table (but we managed to perservere). Otherwise, everything was great!

The property was situated in a quiet area of Torquay, within walking distance of both the town centre, local restaurants and the beach. The friendly couple running the Cleveland were very accommodating and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was of the highest standard. The traditional home-cooked breakfast was amazing, with both my partner and I agreeing that the scrambled eggs were the best weโ€™ve ever had! The room was spotless, vibrant and very spacious, with the bed being extremely comfortable and relaxing. We both had a great nights sleep and very much appreciated the complimentary tea, coffee and other special touches provided to us. We would definitely return and would definitely recommend this bed and breakfast to others! Thank you to Lissanne and Matt for making your bed and breakfast feel like a home from home. :)

We stayed in the king suite, where there TV was quite far away from the bed, so we ended up watching a film on my laptop. However, this didnโ€™t affect our stay and wouldnโ€™t stop us from returning!

Lovely greeting with tea and homemade Banana Bread, very helpful with directions and I had a call before arriving saying that the room was ready if we arrived earlier which was brilliant and i left a little earlier. The room was very comfortable, the bed was amazing and all the facilities were very modern and well kept. Some fudge as a gift in the room was beautiful. And a lovely choice for breakfast which tasted amazing. Nothing was to much trouble and I will definitely be staying again.

We came to Torquay for a lovely weekend and it did not disappoint. The Cleveland is a lovely family run bed and breakfast. Lisanne & Matt were so friendly. Breakfast was definitely a five-star rating. The rooms were nice and spacious, and the bed was comfy. Nothing was too much for them. They accommodated us when needed to. I would highly recommend The Cleveland to my friends and family. Torquay is a great place to visit when not so cold.

We were met by Lissanne, a lovely, friendly lady who greeted us with a cup of tea and a piece of Banana cake which was a lovely way to welcome guests! Our room was comfortable, clean and spacious; I loved the colourful wallpaper! The Cleveland was pleasantly decorated with an easy to use staircase and strong banisters. I have osteoarthritis and that is really important to me! The ensuite bathroom was clean and well designed with soft towels and toiletries if you needed them. Our host Matt was a pleasant gentleman who was also friendly and helpful. Both my husband and I enjoyed a very comfortable night's sleep, a good shower and an extremely tasty breakfast. All ingredients were of good quality; the provenance of each was listed on the back of the menu. We knew of each location too! Lissanne's jam, marmalade and fudge are all homemade. I recommend a purchase of each of them! Have a good Easter Archie!!

Just be cautious when entering or exiting the steep drive as you might catch the under cover/splash shield(?) on the drive surface. It's not a problem if you are a careful driver!

Where do I start.. the hosts were amazing from the moment we booked, right through to check out! We booked last minute, and messaged straight away to ask if we could check in a little earlier so we could enjoy our last minute break and not be governed by check in times. Matt promptly called me to discuss our message, where he was completely open to changing the check in time for us, as the room was ready, as well as taking the time to ask about our trip, travel time and plans, which was a really nice touch. Upon arrival to The Cleveland we were greeted by both Matt & Lissanne, who were both friendly and welcoming, showing us around the house and then promptly to our room, which was absolutely stunning, spotlessly clean and was made even better by having a few extras such as home made fudge, cold bottled water and fluffy dressing gowns.. lush! Our sleep was perfect, the bed was comfy, the blind blocked the outside light well and the temperature of the room just right, so, we had a lovely rest (too much actually, sleeping through our first alarm), and then woke to an amazing breakfast.. honestly, this was restaurant quality, and itโ€™s clear Matt is a trained chef! We cannot fault anything about this place, so if youโ€™re looking for somewhere special, somewhere that feels like home from home, yet a 5* hotel, you canโ€™t go wrong here!
