| Hotel Description: |
Probably one of the best located small NON-sMOKING 4 Diamond hotels in Torquay; Only children OVER 5 accepted.
Guest Accommodation offering quality value for money B&B in comfortable accommodation - walk to many Torquay amenities
NO ONE NIGHT STAYS. Holidays & short breaks in a comfortable, friendly & relaxing environment. Visit Britain has awarded The Buckingham Lodge a 4 Diamond (Guest Accommodation) grading. The Buckingham Lodge is probably one of the best located small family run hotels in Torquay. It s conveniently located in a quiet tree lined road, close (walking distance) to the beach at Torre Abbey Sands, Railway Station, Torre Abbey (with its Agatha Christie Room), Conference & Leisure Centre and shops. Also within walking distance are the Princess Theatre, Harbour and main shopping centre of Torquay.
This small hotel is run on Guest House principles by the resident owners who aim to provide a 'home from home'. The quality, value for money B&B provided is often at prices below that charged by similar & lower graded accommodation -so why go elsewhere?
For the comfort and safety of all guests the Buckingham Lodge operates a strict NO SMOKING policy throughout the building. All rooms are ensuite and many have BOTH BATH & SHOWER which is a feature not usually obtainable in this grade of accommodation.
Prices are on a B&B basis. A licensed bar lounge is available for residents only. There are no facilities for children under age 5 or for babies. IMPORTANT NOTE - Off Site activities are not owned or managed by the Hotel. The Buckingham Lodge has no control over the terms and conditions of use or the opening times and availability of the facilities. A local charge is payable to the operator for the use of most of the off site facilities.
Ideally placed for all Torquay attractions and the whole of the Torbay area, the Buckingham Lodge's location is convenient for visitors to travel to other parts of South Devon. The beauty of Dartmoor is only a short drive away. | | Room Information: | Single Room
