About
Ashleigh Guest House is a family-run guest house in Paignton, South Devon. We are ideally located in a quiet road overlooking Queens Park rugby and cricket ground. There are delightful views of the charming Dartmouth Steam Railway which starts in Paignton and journeys along the delightful English Riviera coastline through Goodrington (1.8 miles) and Broadsands (2.9 miles) towards Kingswear (7.5 miles) on the River Dart. We are conveniently positioned within a short, level walk of the seafront, town centre, harbour and all local amenities.
We have received many industry recognised accolades including Visit England’s prestigious 4 Star Award and Tripadvisor 2019 Certificate of Excellence.
We have a spacious, relaxing guest lounge with comfortable recliner sofas, board games for your enjoyment and we often have relaxing music playing. Our bright and airy sun lounge and outdoor sun deck provides additional space to relax and enjoy the local scenery and the mild micro-climate.
The dining room is bright and roomy and leads into our rear garden area. We have received the Visit England Breakfast award for the high-quality standard of the breakfasts that we serve. We offer a wide choice of menu including the hot section with traditional Full English, pancakes, porridge, continental and cold buffet, vegetarian and healthy options. Start your day in the comfort and good company.

Ashleigh Guest House is an eco-friendly accommodation and we steer away from single use plastics and sachets.
Paignton Green (0.7 miles) hosts a number of events and festivals all year round including English Riviera Air Show, Torbay Carnival, Children’s Week and Paignton Regatta. Paignton is such a fun-filled destination for all ages and is one of the UK’s top seaside resorts. We have award-winning sandy beaches, lively waterfront bars and pubs, family-run cafes, national brand restaurants and a wide selection of high street and independent shops selling holiday gifts and souvenirs.
The English Riviera has 22 miles of stunning coastline with 20 beaches including Fairy Cove, Preston Sands, Goodrington Sands, Hollicombe Beach and Broadsands Beach, all within easy reach from Ashleigh Guest House. The famous, South West Coast Path runs from Babbacombe (4.5 miles) in Torquay (2.2 miles), through Paignton to the quaint fishing town of Brixham (7.7 miles). It is ideal for keen walkers and ramblers. The unique landscape is of significant geological interest and has designated UNESCO Global Geopark status, one of only 7 geoparks in the UK and 140 in the whole world. There are lots of interesting locations for bird, wildlife and nature lovers and photographers. Berry Head National Nature Reserve (8.7 miles) is a gateway site to the Global Geopark with a Napoleonic fort, lighthouse and breath-taking panoramic views across Tor Bay and beyond.
The area has some of the best visitor attractions in the country with Paignton Pier, Paignton Zoo Environmental Park, Palace Theatre, Splashdown Quaywest, Living Coast Aquarium and Coastal Zoo, Kents Cavern Prehistoric Caves on the doorstep.
There is something to do for everyone in Paignton and the English Riviera.
We want you to really enjoy your stay so that we may look forward to welcoming you back to our guest house in the future.
