Cliveden Guest House - Adults-only bed and breakfast with free parking, full English breakfast, and 5-minute walk to Paignton Beach and Pier
Cliveden Guest House offers a 4-star bed and breakfast experience in a family-run setting, with an adults-only policy for a quieter atmosphere. Free WiFi is available throughout the property, and free on-site parking for six cars is a notable feature in this coastal area. Each room includes a flat-screen TV, tea and coffee making facilities, and a private bathroom with complimentary toiletries, bathrobes, and slippers. A full English breakfast with a variety of extras is served daily, cooked to order, and can accommodate special dietary menus. The guest house has a shared lounge, garden, and terrace for relaxation. Paignton Beach and Paignton Pier are both a 5-minute walk away, while Paignton Zoo and Splashdown Waterpark Quaywest (2 km) are nearby. Paignton Railway Station is also a short walk, providing access to the surrounding area. Exeter International Airport is 44 km from the property. A continental breakfast is not offered; instead, the hearty cooked breakfast is a highlight at Cliveden Guest House.
Pros
Guests frequently note the peaceful location with minimal outside noise when windows are closed, despite proximity to the seafront.
The on-site parking is an allocated spot for the duration of each stay, a rare convenience in Paignton.
Rooms are stocked with additional touches like dressing gowns, slippers, and a daily refreshed selection of hot drinks and biscuits.
Cons
The adults-only policy means families with children are not accommodated.
As an older building, some noise from adjacent rooms (e.g., snoring, plumbing) may be audible to light sleepers.
Must-do experiences
Stroll along Paignton Pier for lovely sea views and ice cream.
Visit Goodrington Sands for a fantastic beach day with water sports.
Try the famous cream tea at The Palms Café, a local favorite.
Explore the quirky Paignton Picture House, a retro cinema gem.
Don't miss the Paignton Harbour for stunning sunset walks and photos.
