Hotels in Paignton that are fantastic for families

From the soft, sandy beaches to miniature golf, you’ll enjoy a fun packed family holiday in Paignton. Look for hotels close to the large, and free, Geoplay Park on the seafront and you’ve got entertainment for the kids sewn up. The Redcliffe Lodge Hotel offers family sized rooms and is just a hop, skip and jump from the playground.

Or stay close to family-favourite beach Goodrington Sands. Here you can look for starfish in the rock-pools, get a thrilling soak at Quaywest Waterpark, or step aboard the steam train. You’ll also find a Premier Inn right on the beach, which offers family sized rooms and a pub-style restaurant for re-fuelling the troops after a busy day on the go.

Hotels in Paignton for history lovers

If you’re a history buff, you’ll love staying at The Palace Hotel, Paignton. This stunning hotel was once the home of Merritt Singer, of Singer sewing machine fame. Thoroughly modern, with outstanding facilities including a leisure centre and two acres of manicured gardens, the hotel has also retained the splendour of many of its original period features.

For history fans, no trip to Torbay would be complete without a visit to Greenway, the former home of writer Agatha Christie.

Places to stay in Paignton with a view of the sea

One of the main reasons people flock to Torbay is to enjoy the wonderful sea air. The family run Marine Hotel, Paignton combines a homely atmosphere with a stunning location on the seafront. Close to the attractions of the town, you’ll also find plenty of entertainment on offer at the hotel itself, with special guest cabarets, party nights, competition games nights, bingo and horse-racing sessions organised.

If you like your morning cappuccino, why not enjoy it with spectacular views of the waves from the terrace of the Redcliffe Hotel, Paignton? This imposing building is right on the beach, so you can dip your toes into the sea as well as look at it.

Cosy boltholes in Paignton

A holiday in Paignton isn’t just about family-fun on the beach or the bright lights of the town. There are plenty of hidden nooks to explore too. With access to the South West Coast Path on the doorstep, Cleve Court Hotel is ideally placed to start your adventure.
