Budleigh Salterton Ladram Bay Beach Hotels

"Lodge was comfortable, albeit slightly cold even with the heaters on. Note, lodge checkout is 10am, not 11am as advertised when booking. Even on check in, the member of staff said 11, but there’s a sign in the lodge saying 10. We checked with staff on our last day after noticing, and this caused a last minute panic and curtailed our time together in the pool. The reception staff weren’t particularly understanding despite the avoidable confusion being caused by their mixed information. Following our stay, we did spot that they email you after booking with the small print to say check out for lodges is at 10. So be prepared for this. The property and lodges are in nice grounds. It’s clearly kept going by members, which seem priority. The pool is nice and was a big draw for us, but family swims were a challenge with all the exercise classes (families are limited to a narrow single lane). The pool changing rooms were having a maintenance issue, so everyone had to get changed in the dry changing rooms, and only the gents wet changing was open for people to walk through. This lack of changing caused an issue at the busy periods of classes leaving/arriving. They also ran out of towels and asked us if we could go back to our room, when we said we in the lodges and needed to walk back, staff did then go and get some more. Overall an ok base to explore the area. The ‘nice’ aspects of the property and expense (pool, etc) was let down by not really feeling welcome. "

"Room spacious, lovely clean bathroom. Breakfast fresh to order. I have coeliac disease so they provided me with a gluten free cereal. All the staff were very helpful. We travelled by train so no need for parking but there was ample space. Few minutes walk from the seafront. I would recommend this hotel and would definitely stay again. "

"Had a fantastic stay at this lovely hotel. Staff were fantastic, room was immaculate, food was delicious, views were great. A perfect short break "

"Excellent Hotel. Great staff and good parking onsite if available. The breakfast was really good and a reasonable price. Terrific place if you want to do the Coastal walk as the bus stop is just up the road and the walk brings you back past the hotel. Evening food was a reasonable price and good quality."

"Nice room looking out to sea."

"Yes to both questions. Though a busy Saturday afternoon mean there was only one parking space when I arrived available because someone was just leaving!"

"Clean,warm and comfortable. Helpful and friendly staff. Excellent cooked breakfast, Convenient free parking at back of hotel."

"We really enjoyed those holidays, wonderful place fot family"
