About Tusker Lodge
Torquay's stretch of the English Riviera coastline is best explored from a base that's close enough to the marina and town centre without sitting in the thick of it, and Tusker Lodge on Babbacombe Road fits that brief well. This is a small guest house with 11 rooms, set in a quiet part of town, offering straightforward comfortable accommodation rather than anything grand.
Rooms come with free WiFi, and breakfast is included and consistently well regarded, making a good start to a day out along the coast or into town. Practical extras include 24 hour reception, luggage storage, and free on-site parking, useful for anyone arriving by car or heading off early. Pets are welcome too, so dogs are not a problem here.
The hosts are known for being attentive and generous with local knowledge, happy to point guests towards nearby attractions and the best routes down to the marina. With the town centre and seafront within easy reach, Tusker Lodge works well as a low-key, well-run base for a Torquay stay.

I had a very comfortable stay! The location, service, and cleanliness were all excellent. The staff was also kind enough to provide helpful local information. A new Sushi restaurant is set to open inside the hotel soon, so I’m really looking forward to my next visit!
