The Cliffden Hotel

On the Devon coast in Teignmouth, set inside 7 acres of landscaped gardens and a short walk to the seafront. A Blue Flag beach sits roughly 200 yards away. Steps from Pavilions Teignmouth and the Grand Pier, and within easy reach of Dartmoor National Park — ideal for family-friendly and pet-friendly coastal stays.

This compact hotel has 47 modern guestrooms, many with garden or sea views and some with private balconies. Rooms feature flat-screen TVs, desks, coffee/tea makers and private bathrooms with bathtubs or showers and complimentary toiletries. The vibe is relaxed coastal — think simple comforts, clean lines and easy access to the beach. Housekeeping is provided and the property welcomes families and pets.

Take a dip in the indoor heated pool or sip something chilled on the outdoor terrace overlooking the gardens. Stroll straight to sandy shores for sea-breeze mornings or unwind in the grounds that lead down to the waterfront. Free on-site parking makes car travel simple.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property. Practical services include dry cleaning, laundry, luggage storage, a 24-hour front desk and a banquet hall. An elevator provides accessibility to guest floors.

An on-site restaurant serves satisfying meals and a complimentary buffet breakfast each morning. The bar/lounge is handy for evening drinks, while the outdoor terrace is perfect for afternoon tea and casual al fresco sipping.
