About The Sandpiper Guest House

A licensed cellar bar beneath the guest lounge sets The Sandpiper Guest House apart from the average Torquay stay, giving guests somewhere to unwind with a drink after a day on the English Riviera. The property sits on Rowdens Road with just ten rooms, keeping things small-scale and personal, and free on-site parking makes arriving by car straightforward.

Rooms are light and simply furnished, with en-suite bathrooms throughout, family rooms and accessible rooms available, and drinks can be brought straight to your room if you'd rather not head down to the bar. Breakfast is included, and dinner can be added for those who prefer not to venture out in the evening. Outside, there's a garden with outdoor seating and garden views, plus a business services option for anyone mixing work with the trip.

The surrounding area suits an active or relaxed break equally well, with golf, fishing, watersports, cycling and walking routes all nearby, alongside pubs, restaurants and entertainment within easy reach. Luggage storage and free WiFi round out the practical side of a stay that leans on straightforward comfort rather than frills.

Just got home from a 2 night stay, friendly, helpful faces, room was very clean and well stocked, tastefully decorated, loved the honesty bar. At breakfast the food was lovely we were tended to very well for top ups of coffee and toast, it's about a 10 minute walk from the sea front with a bit of a hill. Would highly recommend and visit again.

What a lovely guesthouse. Our room was comfortable, tastefully decorated and very clean. The hosts Debbie and Denise were easy to get on with. We had a very warm welcome. Breakfast was delicious. We would most certainly highly recommend.

Absolutely loved staying here, Debbie and Denise, the owners, are friendly and welcoming. The rooms are spotless and modern. It is very quiet, even though it is near Torquay Bay. Their breakfast is fantastic, so many options and you can pick whatever you want. We are returning next year. Highly recommend.
