Reviews for Tor View

Review 1:Lovely welcome from the owner, most comfortable bed I've ever slept in! Excellent breakfast. Umbrellas, a torch, water, fresh coffee and milk provided if required ( at no extra cost) and lovely toiletries in our room providing the essentials. Would definitely reccomend a lovely place to stay. Free parking and less than a five minute walk into padstow.

Review 2:None I can think of

Review 3:Fantastic little guesthouse. Clean & comfortable. Decent double room. Good breakfast choice and quality. Lovely owners. Honest description of the property so we got exactly what we expected, which, for the price, was excellent.

Review 4:The views were lovely, the location was good, the bed was comfortable and the breakfast was delicious and Lisa and Paul were very friendly and helpful.

Review 5:Nothing

Review 6:The place had a stunning view. The decor was excellent every little detail was thought about. The breakfast was excellent fresh with good choice. The water and milk in the fridge and being able to help yourself was wonderful.

Review 7:Owners very friendly. Everywhere extremely clean. Nice touches with tea/coffee facilities, fresh milk, biscuits & water. We had standard room as only one night, which was a little small, but cosy, comfortable and spotlessly clean. En-suite was a little tight but everything worked. Breakfast yummy & first class. I'm not one for a full breakfast, however my husband thoroughly enjoyed. I equally enjoyed lovely individual fresh fruit salad, natural yoghurt + poached eggs on toast. Great tea and coffee. Couldn't fault.

Review 15:Very welcoming hosts. A stylish and immaculately clean room with added extras, eg, a range of fruit teas, a couple of 'pillow' chocolates. The limited sea view was a bonus. On our arrival we were brought tea/coffee with shortbread biscuits and a strawberry. The breakfast was excellent with a wide range of cereals, fresh fruit and cooked options served in the upstairs dining room which has expansive views over the town and sea beyond.
