Torquay, a prominent seaside town in South Devon, has been drawing tourists for over two centuries due to its sandy beaches, piers, palm palms, and plenty of attractions. Torquay is a wonderful destination for families and couples alike because to its variety of things to do for kids of all ages, regardless of the weather, as well as its scenic coastline walks, delicious dining options, and lively nightlife. The village of Cockington is home to the ancient Cockington Court and a craft centre that features glassblowing. Visitors may also take a boat ride to nearby Brixham or Paignton to see the abundant marine life, and those interested in nature can visit the Paignton Zoo. The Dartmouth Steam Railway and River Boats, the River Dart, and the English Riviera (a unesco Global Geopark) are all within easy driving distance.

Bed was comfy and kitchen well kitted out. Convector heaters were useful for chillier evenings and the off road parking was a boon. Great location for walking into Torquay but be prepared for an uphill walk back! Unfortunately the WiFi connection was very flakey and we did feel the house could benefit from an end of season cleanup.
