The Wentworth Guesthouse

The Wentworth Guesthouse Amelia and Chris are the proud owners of The Wentworth Guesthouse, your ‘home from home by the sea’.

The Wentworth is a friendly family run guesthouse owned and run by Nigel and Lynne Wiltshire. Located close to Goodrington's sandy beaches, just 200 metres away, in the heart of The English Riviera. Our quiet park-side location is separate from the noisy, hustle and bustle of the busy holiday resort but we are within a short walking distance of all the attractions. Sitting in the lounge with the w

indows open, listening to the steam train chug by across the park, is a magical moment we havent yet got fed up of !!

How lucky are we?

Today has been a scorcher so has been chilling in the shade.

We waited for the sun to go down and the beach to clear before venturing for a cool dip…

Still warm out but perfect for a bit of beach fun 🤗

‘Home from home’

“Amelia made us feel welcome right from the get go. nothing was too much and breakfast was a treat, especially the home made jam. Would definitely recommend as a great place to stay.”

Calling all nature lovers 📣

If you love the great outdoors as much as we do, The English Riviera is the perfect place for you to explore nature in abundance.

From coastal walks with the most spectacular sea views and delightful coves…

To stunning woodlands and parks filled with wildlife and natural beauty.

Staying here, at The Wentworth, places you in a central location. Just off the southwest coast path, next to Youngs Park nature reserve and a few minutes walk from Clennon Valley and its beautiful lakes.

With fantastic transport links you can be on a bus or train in moments. Visits to the river Dart, Cockington, Babbacombe Downs and Berryhead at Brixham are all just a short ride away.

We are here to help you plan your holiday and make the most of your time here on the stunning South Devon coast.

Where is your favourite natural location to visit on The English Riviera?

Anyone for Afternoon Tea? 🫖

Today we had a trial run with our new afternoon food offering…

Having found some lovely bamboo platters we were excited to see what the savoury part of our ‘Afternoon Tea’ idea would look like.

Our verdict…we love this modern twist on a traditional dish. We also decided it needs less bread, deeper fillings, including salad and definitely crisps.

Oh and the pig in blanket was delicious, most definitely our favourite part!

* Little update….this is a sharing platter for 2 🤗*

What are your thoughts? 💭

Don’t panic!

The sweet treat ideas will follow in the next few days.
