 ALWAYS CHEAPER TO BOOK DIRECT

The Carrington is a 3-Star, Silver award-winning Guesthouse ranked in the top 5 accommodations in Paignton (2023 and 2020 Travelmyth Guest reviews) that is positioned nicely between Paignton beach and town centre. 100 yards in either direction can take you to either the seafront, with its numerous restaurants, bars and the multiplex cinema, or the town centre itself, where you can find a variety of shops for almost every occasion or need. There is also a very convenient coach, bus and train station within walking distance of the guesthouse. 

All our rooms can be booked online with immediate viewing of availability and instant confirmation of booking. See left for instant checking of availability.

Arrival/Departure
Rooms will be available from 2.00pm on the day of arrival and should be vacated by 10.00am on the day of your departure.

Central Heating
The Carrington is centrally heated throughout, with each room being individually controlled for the comfort of our guests.

Parking Facilities
Free parking available on Beach Road off-season (1st October-30th April) but from the 1st May until the 30th September a permit in the nearby multi-storey car park is available through the council website - charges will apply.  (Subject to availability)

Pets and/or Guide/Assistance Dogs
Due to potential allergies in other guests, and a lack of facilities within the building itself, we do not allow pets into the guesthouse.

Ironing Facilities
An iron and ironing board are available for the use of guests, and is available upon request.

No Smoking
For the safety and comfort of all our guests, the Carrington Guesthouse is a non-smoking establishment throughout. We would ask all guests to respect this during their stay. Smoking is permitted on the patio at the front of the guest house.
