Reviews for Bay Tree House
Review 1:The very friendly welcome, attention and information about places to visit given by our hosts. Delicious and varied choice of breakfasts. Also the little extras - tea and home-made cake upon arrival, the bathrobes, and the wine glasses and corkscrew in our room.
Review 2:Everything, from the friendly welcome with a tray of tea and cake, to helping with our bags as we left ! Beautifully equipped room with everything we could possibly need including robes. Delicious breakfasts with local foods and GF items. A great place to stay with wonderful hosts.
Review 3:Nothing
Review 4:Hosts David & Sue were extremely helpful in pointing out places of interest in the surrounding area and where to eat. Breakfast was superb, in particular the home made granola. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Review 5:Warmth and friendliness throughout our stay from Sue and David. The fabulous freshly cooked breakfasts and the lovely clean room with comfortable beds.
Review 6:Everything!!! Sue & David were the perfect host who serve tea and cake on arrival. Spacious, clean room, nicely decorated with comfy bed, tub chairs in bay window and excellent bathroom facilities with hot fast running water. Pleasant location with views across public park and clock tower out towards the sea. Breakfast was superb with plenty of choices, locally sourced cooked perfectly by David and served with a smile and cheery word by Sue.
Review 7:Sue and Dave were the perfect hosts. We were welcomed with tea and cake brought to our room. Spacious, clean & comfortable bed. Tea & coffee in the room with fresh milk kept in a fridge. Excellent, plentiful breakfast with wide choice. On leaving, we were presented with a bag of fudge, lovely gesture. Would certainly stay again. Thank you Sue and Dave for a lovely stay.
Review 8:Welcoming, helpful and caring hosts. Beautifully furnished comfortable room with generous sized en-suite. Delicious breakfast. Attentive but not intrusive hosts. Thank you Sue and David for a perfect stay.
Review 9:The location was ideal as it was in a quiet street but within easy reach of places to eat and places to visit. Hospitality was faultless and the friendliness and interest of our hosts made us feel very welcome.
Review 10:This excellent b&b is run with great professionalism... everything was done well and with thought. The owners went out of their way to facilitate my need for an early arrival - and were trully most helpful.
Review 11:Many thanks to Sue & David for the very friendly and relaxed stay. The accommodation was first class, breakfast first class, good views and very quiet.
Review 12:Our hosts were friendly and helpful. The local apple juice at breakfast was very good - and of course the fudge as we were leaving was a bonus! Small fridge available for guests to use plus fresh milk.
Review 13:The position of the guest house is superb. We were in room 3. The comfort and cleanliness of the room is as good as a top class hotel. There is tea, coffee and chocolate sachets provided and fresh milk in the fridge on the landing outside the room. We also used this for our canned drinks. There is a good television and free wi-fi. The bathroom had a good sized bath and a power shower. There was shower gel, shampoo and hand and body lotion provided. There are ample enough towels and a heated towel rail. There is also cotton wool balls and cotton buds provided, one of the little extras Sue and David provide. There is a chest of drawers, wardrobe and bedside cabinets in the room. The bed is a large one with a very comfortable thick mattress. Extra pillows are also in the room. Breakfast is cooked to order and cereals, fruit and juice (try the russet apple) are also there. The toast comes in various breads with tea and coffee.
Review 14:Only one tiny thing bed a bit uncomfortable on one side
Review 15:Sue and David were excellent host room was spotless and the breakfast was second to none and cooked perfectly by David and the produce was locally sauced and of outstanding quality
Review 16:Lovely welcome from owners who take pride in the B and B and add some personal touches such as tea and cake on arrival and a bag of local fudge on departure. Very clean, and great breakfast.
Review 17:Great room with a view. Greeted by a very friendly owner. Superb dinner recommendation. Short walk to the beach. Fresh cooked breakfast as you like it. What could be better?
Review 18:My partner and I stayed two nights for his birthday. Before we had even arrived Sue had been amazing and not only recommended somewhere to eat but booked us a table for our arrival night and text me with the details. The room was huge with an en suite and a lovely view to the sea and the clock tower. Everything was pristine, the breakfast was fully laid on and wonderfully tasty, David has breakfast down to a fine art, the presentation was of the kind you get in those adverts where it never actually looks that nice...but this did and it tasted amazing, it was made even better by the fact that as much as possible was sourced locally, promoting all important small, local businesses. Everything was thought of, even more than in some much larger and much more expensive hotels, but Sue and David have the perfect blend of professional and homey, its like staying with extended family! We will be going back, for the whole experience, and for the 'thank you for staying' bag of local handmade fudge they give to all their guests on departure! Thank you Sue and David for a wonderful weekend :)
Review 19:The owners went out of their way to assist us with everything! The room was lovely and clean and the bed Comfy. Excellent location within walking distance of local amenities and of course the sea! Food was locally sourced and the owners cooked a high standard of breakfast including various choices. We would definitely visit again!

Review 23:Nothing bad to report apart from the weather the day we were going home!!
Review 24:the very warm welcome with a cuppa and offer of cake brought to our room, a nice friendly chat with both Sue & Dave, information on what was available in the area we were staying and other places to visit. but most of all we were treated like family and nothing was too much trouble!!!

Review 28:Didn't like Seaton, rather run down but no fault of the hosts Baytree
Review 29:Lovely welcome by the hosts. Room very comfortable. Greeted with a cup of tea and a piece of cake, nice touch
Review 30:Sue and David made us most welcome. The house was spotlessly clean but comfortable. The breakfast menu was outstanding, served and cooked to perfection.
Review 31:Just to explain my only down on facilities is because I found the flights of stairs difficult that's because I am less able to climb stairs others would be perfectly ok with them.
Review 32:They made us tea and biscuits on arrival and gave us a gift of fudge as we left. A lovely smell of homemade granola pervaded the house and the granola at breakfast was delicious, they gave us the recipe.
Review 33:All good!

Review 40:- some skill needed to get warm water shower, - wi fi a bit flaky, - car park is rear of building, so walk through lane to front of builders - 50 yards

Review 42:There is absolutely nothing bad!
Review 43:From the moment we arrived Sue and Dave couldn't have been more helpful and friendly or knowledgeable. Incredibly comfy bed, cleanliness best I have ever come across and probably the best breakfast in Seaton especially Sue's homemade Granola which was utterly divine. We celebrated a special anniversary during our stay and it will always be even more special because of our wonderful stay at Bay Tree.
Review 44:Sue and David went over and above to make our stay enjoyable. Our room was clean and spacious and the breakfast was first class and beautifully presented.. Attention to detail was excellent and we would choose this lovely B & B again if we returned to Seaton.
Review 45:Just the perfect place to stop over. "Mine Hosts" so helpful and friendly. Accommodation first rate and a superb breakfast. Will be back. Doreen and Den, St Leonards on Sea, East Sussex.
Review 46:Lovel guest house, lovely people nothing to much trouble, we had an issue and did not arrive until late phoned to ask if this was a problem, not an issue even when it was 10.15pm when we got there. Hope return to spend a little longer in their lovely place.
Review 47:Sue & Dave are excellent hosts, every little need catered for and nothing is too much trouble. Cake and Coffee on arrival and superb choice and home cooked breakfast. We will definitely be recommending and returning asap.
Review 48:Sue and David will go out of their way to make you feel welcome and their little touches (apart from the fabulous breakfast) made it a very special long week-end in a beautiful part of the country.
Review 49:The SHOWER really let this place down - just insufficient pressure to rinse down - definitely not good enough to wash hair!! Such a shame as the facility looked terrific. Breakfast - Never put baked beans in a separate dish urghhh - a small thing but spoils the plate - too clinical for us. No green tea so used our own.
Review 50:well-decorated , spacious. Attention to detail in type of décor, dressing gowns, use of fridge, wine glasses and opener. Wi-Fi terrific.
Review 51:Bed head a little squeezing , but nothing really important .
Review 52:Everything .Hosts were smiling and very helpful . The place was immaculate and so nicely re furnished . Congratulations . First B&B to offer a small gift before letting s go !
Review 53:Made to feel sincerely welcome. The property is so clean and rooms well equipped and decorated. It was like staying at a relaxed 5 star hotel. Other B&B's could learn so much from Bay Tree House.
Review 54:We were greeted on arrival with a cup of tea, local cake and shown to our room, from that moment we knew we were going to enjoy our three nights stay.
Review 55:Nothing!

They even went out of their to put my medicinal icepack in their freezer for me during the day. Thank you David and Sue we really enjoyed our stay!

Review 62:Most important thing about a stay away from home is to have a great place to stay, in a comfortable place with a great host. Well, Bay Tree House is the place where i am able to call a home, away from home. Good location, great hosts and not to forget, awesome home cooked breakfast. The lovely hosts is always ready to help in whatever ways they can, giving opinions when asked, recommending attractions and sightings and offering help when needed. Couldn't have asked for more from them. Me and my partner love the stay and will be back in the near future. With service standard like this, Bay Tree House will definitely go a long long way! Highly recommended!! *2 thumbs up*
Review 63:This is a lovely b and b with every small detail covered to make your stay perfect. Fresh milk, tea and cake on arrival, high standard of cleanliness, great breakfast and very helpful owners. Would definitely recommend.
Review 64:Sadly for us, this was only an overnight stop en route to Cornwall from Southampton.
Review 65:Being offered tea and home made cake on arrival was just the first of many thoughtful little touches that, along with their open friendliness, make Sue and David wonderful hosts! Everywhere felt bright,spotless, and yet warm and friendly. Not only was our room lovely and the bed comfortable, but Sue and David seem to go out of their way to provide every little extra luxury you could possibly want and to make their guests feel at home. The breakfast was wonderful, with a wide choice of good food; and, a true Scot, David can make porridge! If we're ever in the area again, we know exactly where we want to stay! Thank you
Review 66:We left before being able to try more of the breakfasts.
Review 67:David and Sue could not do enough to make our stay brilliant. They had a great knowledge of the area (restaurants and places to visit) and take a lot of pride in running a beautiful B&B. There was a very homely feel and it was the little touches that made it perfect. Thank you for a wonderful break, we will be returning, if not just to try more of the breakfast options :)

Review 72:Sue and Dave were amazing. The hotel is lovely and welcoming and the room was everything we could ask for. Slept like babies! Breakfast was excellent, just sorry I missed the 'special' of smoked salmon and scrambled eggs but maybe next time. we will definitely be back.

Review 89:We have stayed in a number of b&b's over the years and this was one of the best we have stayed in. This was due to the facilities, the owners and the overall experience. You will find cheaper I'm sure, but you will find it hard to get the same comfort, great breakfast and overall feeling of being special and well looked after.
Review 90:David and sue were so helpful and made us feel very wecome, nothing was too much trouble. It was comfortable and the breakfast was excellant thank you
Review 91:Sue & David are outstanding hosts who are always friendly, helpful and who pay attention to detail. The facilities are of a high standard and it is good to have on-site parking because parking spaces can be at a premium outside the B&B. The breakfast is delightful. Seaton is close to many attractions including the villages of Lyme Regis and Beer and lovely sections of the Coastal Path (although some sections lost through recent landslides). Bay Tree House is a short walk into the centre of town.
Review 92:Sue & David perfect hosts, room light airy and very clean. Breakfasts yummy and nothing was too much trouble. Will return again as soon as work & family commitments allow. Seaton is a lovely quiet Devon seaside town.
Review 93:The hotel was extremely clean and comfortable, David and Sue were very welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. Lovely rooms with fantastic views, breakfast was cooked to perfection, looking forward to returning very soon. Would recommend The Bay Tree House to all.
Review 94:That our itinerary meant we couldn't stay longer!!!
Review 95:Sue and Dave were very welcoming. We enjoyed our individualised breakfasts and great service at all times. We felt very much at home in this comfortable accommodation.
Review 96:Leaving!
Review 97:The wonderfully warm and friendly welcome we received on our arrival and the addition of some superb homemade cake and tea brought to our room. The room was fabulous with amazing views over the bowling green and out to sea and extremely comfortable and tastefully decorated. We stayed for 3 nights but would happily have stayed a week as we felt like one of the family. High class toiletries, biscuits and breakfast. No hesitation to recommend it to others.
Review 98:We stayed one night and booked a double and a twin room. The rooms were spacious and spotless. On arrival we were served tea and cake, and my parents sat in the window seat in their room and enjoyed the beautiful view over the green. Breakfast was cooked to order and delicious. David and Sue welcomed us warmly, were interested to talk to us and were helpful when we asked where to eat. They both came to say goodbye, and we left feeling our paths had crossed over with some lovely folk.
Review 99:It was all quite good!
Review 100:David and Sue are wonderful and truly enjoy haring and pampering their guests. They go the extra mile, like sorting out our visit to the fossil belachelijk. Bay Tree House is a very pleasant B&B.
Review 101:A wonderful place to stay. David and Sue were a delight and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in the door. I would recommend Bay Tree House to anyone!
