Where to Stay in Teignmouth, Devon

Hotels in Teignmouth We Could Confirm

Teignmouth sits on the north bank of the River Teign estuary, about 12 miles south of Exeter. The town grew into a Georgian-era resort, and many seafront buildings still show this history. Today the lodging list leans toward guest houses and apartments. Large chain hotels are rare here.

We checked each property below against at least two sources, usually the official website and a regional tourism listing. Where we found only one source, we say so. Phone numbers and addresses come from those listings. Call before you book, because small properties change hands and rules often.

The Cliffden Hotel

The Cliffden Hotel is the best known of the hotels in Teignmouth. The address is 20 Dawlish Road, Teignmouth, Devon, TQ14 8TE. Call 01626 770052 to reach reception.

The official site lists 47 bedrooms, and some have sea views or balconies. Guests can use an indoor heated swimming pool, a restaurant, and a bar. A terrace with sea views serves afternoon tea. The hotel sits in about seven acres of gardens and offers free parking for guests. Both the hotel and the South Devon tourism listing describe the property as family-friendly and pet-friendly.

Both sources place the Blue Flag beach about 200 yards away. The official site also mentions a pool table, accessible facilities, and 24-hour reception. We could not find check-in and check-out times, so ask when you call.

The Ness (Ness House) in Shaldon

The Ness is a hotel with a pub and restaurant, and the address is Ness Drive, Shaldon, Teignmouth, Devon, TQ14 0HP. Note the location. Shaldon is a village across the river mouth from Teignmouth. Many booking sites list the property under Teignmouth, so we include the hotel here with a clear label.

The hotel website gives the phone number 01626 873480. The site describes rooms for walking holidays and short breaks, and a seaside pub and restaurant serving classic pub meals and Sunday roasts.

An Expedia listing adds more detail. The listing shows check-in from 3:00 PM to 10:00 PM with no after-hours check-in, and check-out at 10:30 AM. Free parking and free Wi-Fi appear on the same listing. Dogs are allowed for a fee per stay. The listing also puts Ness Beach about two minutes away on foot and Teignmouth Station about a ten-minute drive away.

The hotel site says Marine Parade is closed for roadworks until 20 November 2026. We found this notice on one source only. Confirm your driving route when you book.

Riviera Apartments on Den Crescent

Riviera Apartments offers five penthouse apartments on the Teignmouth seafront. The tourism listing gives the address as Den Crescent, Teignmouth, Devon, TQ14 8BD. The official site gives no street address, so confirm the exact entrance when you book. The phone number is 01626 772660.

The official site lists a private entrance with a lift, a private car park, and private balconies with sea views. Each apartment has a full kitchen with a dishwasher, a washer and dryer, and underfloor heating. We could not find check-in times or a pet policy. Ask both questions by phone.

This is a good fit for couples and small groups who want to cook their own meals. The tourism listing describes views over Great West Bay and the Teign estuary.

Guest Houses and Smaller Places to Stay in Teignmouth

These properties each appear in only one source we could use. Treat the details as unconfirmed and call the owner before you plan around them.

Lynton House

Lynton House is a family-run hotel at 7 Powderham Terrace, Sea Front, Teignmouth, Devon, TQ14 8BL. The South Devon tourism listing says the hotel sits between the sea and the River Teign, with a bar and home-cooked meals. The listed phone number is 01626 774349.

The hotel website showed only a holding page when we checked. We found no second source for rooms, parking, or check-in times. Call first.

Brunswick House

Brunswick House is listed at 5 Brunswick Street, Teignmouth, Devon, TQ14 8AE. The tourism listing places the property in the town’s Arts District and mentions comfortable rooms and a locally sourced breakfast. The listed phone number is 01626 774102.

A warning applies here. The web address printed in the listing redirected to an unrelated site when we tested the link. Do not trust any website for this property until you reach the owner by phone.

Hylands Holiday Apartments

Hylands Holiday Apartments stands at 27 Barnpark Road, Teignmouth, Devon, TQ14 8PJ. The tourism listing says the apartments sit in their own grounds, a few minutes’ walk from the seafront, the beach, and town facilities. The listed phone number is 01626 772883. We found no second source, so confirm availability and rules by phone.

Old Listings We Dropped

Our earlier version of this page named three places we could not verify. We removed them rather than guess.

The Royal Hotel: We found no current listing for a hotel by this name in Teignmouth in the sources we could reach. Do not book by name alone. If a booking site still shows the property, call the number on the confirmation and check the address.

Woodlands Park Hotel: We could not confirm a hotel of this name in Teignmouth. The earlier text described pools, tennis courts, and bicycles. We found nothing to support those claims.

Archway Apartments: We found no current listing in the tourism sources. Skip this name unless you can confirm the address and phone number directly.

The old page also described a general category of holiday lets. Holiday lets do exist in Teignmouth, and the next section covers how to find them.

Self-Catering and Motels Near Teignmouth

Teignmouth has very few motels in the American sense. Travelers who want a roadside stay with parking at the door will find more choice in nearby towns. Within Teignmouth, apartments and cottages fill the gap.

The South Devon tourism site lists several self-catering options. These include Estuary View in the Grand Banks development, with access to an on-site gym, Dunholme House, and Sunshine Cottage, a former fisherman’s cottage with room for four. Each listing is single-source for us, so we do not recommend one over another. Ask each owner about minimum stays, because many self-catering places set their own booking rules.

Holiday parks sit just outside town. Coast View Holiday Park on Torquay Road in Shaldon is an AA-rated holiday centre with views over Lyme Bay. The listed phone number is 01626 818350.

Best Area for Hotels Near the Beach and the Den

Where you stay shapes your trip more than which room you pick. Here is how the main areas compare.

The seafront and Den Crescent: This area faces the sea beach and the grassy Den. Riviera Apartments and Lynton House both list seafront addresses.

Dawlish Road: The Cliffden Hotel stands here. You get gardens, a pool, and a short walk to the Blue Flag beach.

The Arts District: Brunswick House sits here, so you stay in the town’s arts quarter.

Shaldon: The Ness and Coast View sit here. You stay in a village across the river from the town.

Things to Do Near Your Hotel in Teignmouth

Teignmouth has a long sandy main beach and a sheltered Back Beach on the estuary side. The Back Beach overlooks the harbour and its moorings, with views up the estuary toward Dartmoor. The South West Coast Path runs along the seafront toward Dawlish and Dawlish Warren, and across the river to Shaldon.

The Grand Pier was built between 1865 and 1867 and holds an amusement arcade and rides. One source reports Storm Ingrid in January 2026 washed away part of the pier. We found only this one report, so check the current state before you plan a visit.

Other sights include the Teignmouth and Shaldon Museum, Teignmouth Lighthouse, the heated outdoor Teignmouth Lido on the seafront, and the Pavilions Teignmouth arts centre. Den Crescent and the Assembly Rooms date to 1826 and still stand. Walkers can follow the 18-mile Templer Way from Haytor to Shaldon. The town holds its carnival in late July.

A passenger ferry crosses the river mouth to Shaldon. We did not confirm the timetable or winter service, so check the ferry times before you plan a day trip.

Getting to Teignmouth and Getting Around

Teignmouth station opened in 1846 on the South Devon Main Line, between Dawlish and Newton Abbot. Great Western Railway runs local stopping trains between Exmouth, Exeter St Davids, and Paignton. CrossCountry services from Manchester and Birmingham to Paignton also stop twice daily in each direction.

Brunel’s railway runs along the sea wall between Teignmouth and Dawlish Warren. Storm damage in January 2026 caused a sinkhole at Sprey Point and closed the line, according to one source. Check National Rail for the current status before you travel by train.

The Cliffden Hotel offers free parking, as does The Ness. Riviera Apartments has a private car park. Ask other properties about parking when you call.
