Neighbourhood information

The Wentworth is located opposite Youngs Park, which is a conservation area, with Goodrington Sands Beach 200 metres away! It is a beautiful, peaceful location, a fantastic base from which to explore. Goodrington is located between Paignton and Brixham, on The English Riviera. We are about half a mile outside of Paignton itself, away from the hustle and bustle of the town centre. Wentworth Guesthouse is less than 200 meters from Goodrington Sands Beach and directly opposite beautiful Youngs Park. The stunning cliff walk follows the coast from north sands beach down to Paignton harbour and along to the famous Paignton pier. The walk has been planted with exotic vegetation and flowers from around the world.
