Pebble Lodge in Paignton offers stunning views and is well-regarded for its spaciousness and comfort. Guests appreciate the property's cleanliness, the number of bathrooms, and the well-equipped kitchen. The location is praised for its proximity to local attractions, despite the challenging steep access. The games room and cosy furnishings add to the enjoyable experience, although some maintenance issues have been noted.

Most guests found Pebble Lodge to be clean and tidy, with a few reports of overlooked areas such as under furniture and a blocked drain. The presence of spiders and webs in one instance suggests occasional lapses in thoroughness.

The property's location is appreciated for its beautiful views and proximity to local attractions. However, the steep steps and uphill location may pose challenges for those with mobility issues, and parking can be difficult.

Guests generally find the lodge comfortable, with cosy seating, good mattresses, and a home-like atmosphere. The presence of a games room is a plus, although there are some reports of uncomfortable beds and a need for more heating instructions.

Facilities are well-received with a few maintenance issues reported, such as non-working light bulbs, loose toilet seats, and a broken towel rail. The kitchen is mostly well-equipped, but some guests noted a lack of certain utensils and the need for more cooking pans.

There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews, so it is not possible to score this category.

    Would be happy to return but in the height of season for better weather.

  • Liz

    We greatly enjoyed our stay. It was especially great to have so many bathrooms! The accommodation was spacious and a welcoming.

  • Robert

    We were contacted by the plumber the next day but we were out and had the key with us so he couldn't get in but no matter it didn't spoil our stay. The only other thing of note was when we arrived we found the bath and window cill to contain several spiders and webs so it wasn't cleaned before we arrived. So we just cleaned it ourselves if this had been the trend then we would have complained but everything else was very clean so we took this small issue to be an oversight..really enjoyed our stay, very comfortable, quiet and well equipped with lovely views of the sea and Brixham plus the surrounding countryside..plenty of places to eat and visit for days out including goodrington sands and broadsands beaches plus Torquay, babbacombe etc etc...the week certainly flew by wouldn't hesitate to book again it certainly pleased the grand kids and my wife so alls well...
