1 bedroom, 1 bed
1 bathroom
Located in the heart of Torquay, just moments from the harbour, this beautifully styled Victorian apartment will bring a dash of modern elegance to your English Riviera getaway. We love the vibrant pops of colour in the open-plan living area that make this space feel instantly welcoming, with cool contemporary furnishings adding to the stylish scene. Our favourite spot though is by the bay window where two armchairs invite you to gaze out onto the harbour – your morning coffee or an evening glass of wine in hand. With a chic bedroom boasting a large, comfortable bed as well as a cute vanity space that can be used as a work-from-home set-up, you’ve got everything you need here for a blissful stay. Outside of your home, you’ve got plenty of charming restaurants, pubs and local shops to explore right on your doorstep, while Princess Gardens is a five-minute walk away. You’re also an eight-minute walk from the English Riviera Wheel and a six-minute stroll from Beacon Cove.
