Stayed here for the first time this week. We were later arriving than we said but, as Matt and Rosie had to go out, they made sure keys and information for us were available. Lovely room overlooking the harbour. Matt and Rosie are very accommodating and the breakfast is worth the visit alone. We will be back.... if they have... More

Another year on... we booked for the 3rd time and have already booked for 2014. There is a very simple reason this is number 1, Matthew and Rosie are the most friendly and helpful hosts. Rosie's breakfast is fresh, local produce cooked just as you like it with a great selection. The rooms are beautiful and clean, and all of... More

We were already in Devon and wanted to extend our visit, so booked a night here by walking in and asking if they had any rooms free. Really glad we did, because it is the nicest place we have ever stayed - it's an 18th century building and was full of character and charm. The hosts are very friendly and... More

Stayed here for two nights and had a most enjoyable break with the warmest of welcomes and superb breakfasts. The house itself is steeped in character and history and the views of the harbour are a real bonus. Would not hesitate to recommend the Sampford Guest House and plan to return when we can.

Whether you stay for two days or two weeks, Sampford House and the hosts provide the perfect base to visit Brixham and the South Devon. The Brixham sailing and fishing heritage dates back almost a thousand years. Sampford House is the perfect base to explore this.

We decided to try and find a few days April Sun in Brixham which we enjoyed last October and returned to see Matthew & Rosie at Sampford. Sadly the sun was totally absent for the 3 nights we stayed but just peeped out as we left for home! Still we had another good stay at Sampford this time in Room... More

My girlfriend booked this as a post Easter break. We also wanted to test our new dog in the sea, having read all the reviews this had to be the place to book. All the way down I joked that I was looking for the slightest little thing to ruin the excellent Tripadvisor rating..... Well there was little chance of... More

This really is a lovely place to stay. Fantastic views of the harbour from a really characterful old house. We stayed with friends and we booked the cottage and they had a sea view room in the main house. Both were excellent - comfortable, clean and equipped with everything you need including lovely soft towels. The cottage is lovely if... More

My husband and I stayed for 3 nights. Lovely little place, very tasty breakfast and extremely helpful and kind hosts , Rosie and Matthew. Would definitely stay again perhaps next time I would stay in the cottage as there would be a new addition to the family. Highly recommended.
