Description

This cottage is perfectly placed for a family holiday in Torquay, the “Queen of the English Riviera” where you can explore South Devon’s superb coastal path or all that Torbay has to offer by way of tourist attractions and wonderful beaches.

Situated in a quiet, leafy part of town, this home is just a couple of hundred yards from Meadfoot beach with tidal rock pools, café and watersports centre. Out of season the beach is great for families with pre school children where they will find sand for building castles, also pebbly areas with rock pools for exploring and boulders to climb on.  It is easy to pop back to base if anything is forgotten. Whilst a few minutes drive, or 15 minutes’ walk sees you in Torquay’s bustling harbour with attractions such as Living Coasts, Cockington Village, A big wheel, the pier and Princess Theatre. Take a ferry to Brixham or Dartmouth or jump on the steam train from Paignton to Kingswear. Heading northwards, takes you past Hopes Nose to Ansty’s cove towards Babbacombe and the Cliff railway, Kents Cavern and Model Village. Other attractions and places of interest in the area include the historic naval city of Plymouth, Exeter, famed for its stunning cathedral and shopping, The Princess Theatre, Paignton Zoo, Dartmoor National Park, Torre Abbey, Agatha Christie’s Greenacres.
