For a taste of the Med upon British shores, there’s no place quite like the English Riviera. One of its fabulous waterside towns is Torquay, a haven for foodies, sun worshippers, and surfers alike. Just a mile inland from its bustling marina, and around a ten-minute walk from Kents Cavern Prehistoric Caves, you’ll be delighted to call this peaceful mews home. From the outside, the honey-coloured stonework and floral window boxes create a picture-perfect scene. Quaint and delicate, the unassuming, homely vibe continues indoors.
