This was our first trip to Torquay and we wanted a place that was equidistant to town and the seashore. The room was very spacious with a large bathroom complete with soaker tub and a separate sitting room. All in all it was great value for money.

The owner is very friendly and welcoming. The property provided us with a bedroom, lounge and balcony so there was plenty of space to move around in. Personalising your breakfast requests was a nice touch. As there are a few stairs to enter the premises don’t take large cases. There is an easy walk downhill to the seaside and back up a gradual incline through the main part of town. Poor Torquay itself looks very depressed with lots of places closed.

For the price the hotel is excellent value. Beware that the car park entrance is via a shared driveway with one other hotel who have installed bollards making it very tight, especially up the steep drive from the relatively narrow main road. Any car without a good turning circle and being long will not be able to get in. We stayed in the "Gothic Suite" as an "upgrade" to the room that we had originally booked. It was clean and comfortable and had a balcony. The view from the balcony wasn't spectacular but it would be a nice place to sit on a Summer's evening. The shower room is adequate and the shower worked well. It should be noted that the building isn't really suitable for those with a disability as it requires stair climbing to get anywhere, even up to the entrance. We were given a brief tour of some of the other rooms by the host and they all looked nice. If you don't mind walking up a large number of stairs then the "Seaview" suite seems very nice and almost like an apartment. It also has a beautiful view over Torbay. The breakfasts are fine, especially for the price.

Nice, spacious,very homely and clean rooms. We had a large suite, a new large living room, bedroom with king size bed, and a nice big spacious bathroom. The host was very friendly and helpful. As for breakfast we had English breakfast that was brought to our room, the following day we decided to have breakfast in the dining area.

Amazing hotel, lovely hosts. Couldn't do enough for you. Excellent location. Close to the town. The only downside of this hotel is the steep driveway, it was a real struggle getting in and out with the car. But we will definitely recommend this hotel! Lovely place.

Fabulous hotel with a very friendly owner who will happily help at any moment. We got a great welcome upon arrival and Lana was there whenever we needed anything or had any questions. We had a full english breakfast which was hand made by Lana and was fantastic, definitely recommend! The rooms are very spacious and have everything you need - we had the gothic suite with the lovely terrace. The only thing is that parking is quite tight but nothing can be done about that. We will definitely be back for future stays and couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and relax!

Ascot House Hotel

Upon arrival met by Grace, (owner,housekeeper and cook) with one of the friendliest smiles. Upon entering accommodation tourist information readily available on the right hand side of the entrance, taken to the room by Grace (nice to have done rather than just being told where it is). Room was a deluxe room (number 3) consisting of a lounge, bedroom and en-suite , plenty of storage available, two tvs one in lounge and one in bedroom. The room was spotlessly clean with a large very comfortable bed, a settee and four chairs, tea, coffee and milk was provided in the room along with a fridge. We were asked what time we would like breakfast, breakfast in our case consisted of a good quality thickly cut rasher of bacon, a good well cooked sausage, fried egg, beans, half a tomatoe and mushroom, two slices of toast, butter and choice of jams along with tea, all cooked freshly. I was a little concerned that previous reviews had mentioned a steep drive leading to the hotel but I drive a large family saloon and had no issues going up the drive. Whichever way you leave the hotel to go into Torquay on foot left or right you walk downhill (10 minutes for able bodied) which obviously means yo have to walk uphill to return although there is a very close bus stop to take you into Torquay

We arrived early and were greeted by Lana, who gave us a key to get in when we returned and said that our room would be ready for us in 2 hours. We returned a few hours later and let ourselves in with the key fob given at around 3pm. NO TOWELS, NO HANDWASH, NO Information about breakfast which was extra per person. Curtains hanging from poles, broken hooks. fridge, no fresh milk as stated or water ! After contacting Lana by phone we were told there was no towels because they were still in the tumble drier, and we had to order the breakfast we wanted for a set time. Next morning, no sign of breakfast, other guests told us similar had happened the day before. We left hungry to our AGM without having any sight of Lana or our breakfast. Despite trying to contact her several times, we did not manage to see Lana until we were leaving the next morning, having made alternative arrangements for breakfast. We were basically 'accosted' in the car park by Lana. She had not replied to any email or text message, or answered her phone when i rang when i was available. She should have checked us in on the day and made us aware that we had to pay at the property, we always pay on booking but this was not done, she was trying to make us give a good review saying it was all her fault things went wrong, not the hotel. We were offered things free of charge and a free stay. We won't return and do not recommend this hotel. read reviews first, it has had a fair many hosts it seems - WHY ????

Unfortunately this property did not meet my high expectations. The property is accessed by a very steep drive and steps, not expected. The property is a 30 minute walk to the seafront up and down hills whatever route you take, again not expected. The room contents were dusty on arrival. There waa no fresh milk in a fridge that was not turned on in readiness for my arrival, there was also no water as denoted in the welcome notes. The shower ran cold when first used shortly after arrival and there were hairs in the bath with the shower over. When I asked after two days for clean towels it seemed to be met with inconvenience and my bathroom towel was replaced with a hand towel. I was also accused of a missing item that was not missing at all just moved to dry my towels in the sunlight as it was a towel rail. I didn't partake in breakfast during my stay. The bed wasn't comfortable overall and the duvet way too hot even with a fan provided and the pillows too soft for me. In conclusion this property was not for me due to difficult access, distance from the seafront, a not particularly clean room and uncomfortable bed and bed linen hence only 3 stars awarded. Disappointing Experience.
