Property code: 82540

A beautiful and cosy property in the resort town of Torquay, with an array of restaurants, bars and beaches all within walking distance.

Escape to the English Riviera where palm trees line the promenade, and you can enjoy waterside dining. The pebble-effect electric fire welcomes you back home, or spend time basking in the sun and lounge on the terrace with a drink in hand. You’ll arrive to a thoughtful welcome pack so you can tuck into treats from the moment you arrive.

A fresh feel flows throughout this home, helping you to unwind and relax amid light, tranquil tones and warm furnishings. Light floods into the lounge through patio doors so you can let a summer breeze flow inside or, when there’s a chill in the air, fire up the electric fire and get cosy on the inviting sofa. Great for fun nights in with family and friends, the games shelf is well-stocked, and the open-plan kitchen/diner means you can get competitive at the table and top up your drink with ease. The light, pretty style continues upstairs in the bedrooms where sloping ceilings add character. Take care of internal and external steps.

Take to the water and board a boat from the local marina where you can visit Brixham or Dartmouth for a fun day out. Whet your appetite with fish fresh from the day’s catch before heading back to Torquay and treating yourself to a tipple in a waterside bar. For a stretch of the legs, tread the South West Coast Path which winds for 630 miles between Minehead and Poole or venture 14.5 miles to the edge of Dartmoor National Park.

Beautiful, spacious property with outdoor space , too. The owners have really thought about their guests with welcome basket on arrival and plenty of amenities - toiletries, games, books etc The beds were very comfortable and we all slept well. The owner have though about those with young children and have travel cot and highchair for use, which weRead more thought was lovely. Fairly close to the beach. A little further to the town centre. Thank you so much for having us. Hope to see you again! Hide

We had a pleasant 14 days stay in The Stables. The cottage is very cosy and the host, who lives next-door, is very friendly and helpful. The welcome basket is a great gesture. Torquay town centre is an about 25 minutes walk and the beach about 12 minutes.

Just returned from a lovely week here! The cottage is in a lovely quite area, yet close to all the attractions. The cottage itself is lovely! A very nice touch with a welcome pack, well equipped (even with a fan, which was very much appreciated this week) and information leaflets to plan days out. The outside seating area is lovely and got the sun Read moreuntil late on. A personal favourite of mine was the black out blinds in bedrooms! This was a great to have for sleep having a young child.
