The Radcliffe Hotel

Located on Paignton’s seafront overlooking Tor Bay, The Redcliffe Hotel is one of the English Riviera’s best-known coastal event hotels, combining traditional seaside hospitality, flexible function facilities and panoramic sea views within a prominent waterfront setting. Positioned directly on the South Devon coastline, the hotel has developed a strong reputation for weddings, private celebrations, conferences and group events, offering a more relaxed coastal alternative to city-centre venues.

Set within landscaped grounds above the promenade, the hotel blends classic hospitality interiors with versatile event spaces and extensive leisure facilities, creating an event environment that feels welcoming, accessible and distinctly Devon. Its position overlooking the bay gives many of the event spaces uninterrupted sea views, adding a strong destination feel for both daytime and evening events.

The venue caters for a broad mix of corporate and private events, with flexible function suites capable of supporting conferences, dinners, networking events, weddings, exhibitions and social celebrations.
