This stylish flat with peeks of Torquay Harbour is the perfect seaside escape. Here, the seagulls will organise your morning wake-up call, so treat yourself to a cup of tea and an extra thirty minutes in bed. Lie back and listen to the sound of lapping waves and the gentle knocks of butting moored boats; breathing in the salty sea breeze that drifts through your open window. After a hearty breakfast whipped up in your own kitchenette, it’s time to explore the English Riviera. You’re a ten-minute walk from Torquay Beach and a hop, skip and jump from a clamour of continental cafes, trendy boutiques and waterside cocktail bars. When you return home salt-tinged and worn out, fall back into that sumptuous chocolate brown sofa before tucking into hot fish and chips on the balcony, watching the sunset melt across the port.

About Torquay

Torquay has a long creative history, with Agatha Christie born in the town and Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s former home visible on Vaughan Parade.
