Torquay Stay
Good first impression and really pleased with the facilities on offer. The kitchen was very well equipped and there were some nice welcoming touches, such as the dish of chocolates. Although the property was used just by adults on this occasion, it would be very suitable for a multi generational group, as there were different games and sports equipment available.

Family Holiday in Torquay
Great property with a fantastic homely feel, all the comforts you would need for a long or short stay. Amenities were fantastic with plenty to keep the kids occupied. Beds were super comfortable and the layout was perfect for our group, our only criticism is the tri bunk room with the ceiling fan is a bit of a concern as it is very close to the bed if you forgot you could easily hit your head. All in all the property and the owner were wonderful to deal with and we had a great stay (albeit too short!) And the complimentary chocolates on arrival were a lovely touch
