About The Accommodation
Luxury Penthouse with Balconies and Spectatular Sea Views Overlooking Torquay Bay
The incredible sea-facing penthouse is on the 3rd (top) floor of a modern cliff-top building; its elevated position providing an impressive vantage point. There is something therapeutic about gazing at the glistening sea lapping at the shores of Torquay beach down below. Relax and take in the glorious view. Or, within just a few minutes, you can be enjoying the property’s private hillside garden, with a traditional Victorian viewing platform. Through a private locked gate, the garden also provides you with direct access to Princess Gardens, a stone’s throw from the promenade and all that Torquay has to offer.
With the marina’s eateries and boat tours, the beach, theatre, bars, as well as high street shops, there is something to entertain everybody close by. Bear in mind that if you choose to stroll down, rather than take the car, you’ll be walking uphill to get back. Perhaps seeing as you’ll be on holiday, you might choose to take a cab. The good news is that there’s a lift to take you up to the top floor if you don’t fancy the stairs.
To avoid any surprises, our property does exactly what it says on the tin. We’ve taken care of everything, so that when you arrive you can settle straight into holiday mode or crack on with the workload if you’ve opted for a ‘working holiday’ by the sea.
From a Bluetooth speaker to an egg whisk, we’ve got everything you could possibly need. In keeping with Devon tradition, there will even be some scrumptious fudge awaiting you upon arrival! Sourced from this quaint, harbourside sweet shop:
Every room is well proportioned and arranged with your comfort in mind. The two double bedrooms have plenty of storage space and luxury king size mattresses for a great night’s sleep. The beds are perfectly placed for comfortable viewing of the smart Freeview TVs found in each room. There to help you nod off – or perhaps to get you going of a day!
Like the rest of the flat, the living room is high-ceilinged, light and modern. With the breakfast bar ‘sea viewing platform,’ double doors leading onto the balcony, and 65” smart Freeview TV with ambilight, there is plenty to peer at, whatever the time of day! You might just prefer to curl up with a book and piece of fudge, snooze or play one of our board games in a safe haven of relaxation.
Underfloor heating, heated towel rails and illuminated demist mirrors exist in both the main and en suite bathrooms. The rain shower in the main bathroom is super spacious.
The kitchen is also a great size, equipped with everything you could need to whip up a tasty meal, to be enjoyed al fresco on the lounge’s balcony, on your lap or up the table. If you don’t fancy cooking, no problem. We’ve prepared a list of our favourite takeaways which will deliver to you. Plus, many recommended restaurants are within easy walking distance – a full range are available to suit all tastes. We do advise booking if you want to eat out at peak times. You’ll find a list of options in your welcome brochure.
Whether you choose to travel to Torquay by train or car, both options are convenient. The train station is a 15 minutes’ walk away (about half the journey uphill), or 5 minutes in a taxi. If driving, the property comes with a secure underground parking space on the lower ground floor – it fits a Range Raver Evoque, but anything bigger would probably be too tight a squeeze. The good news is that parking is unrestricted and free on surrounding streets, so if you’ve got one, you can park your 4X4 outside.
We pride ourselves on timely responses and providing a super clean holiday home for you. We know what matters to our guests as we have the same high standards as you (we love staying here too after all – the stunning views are to die for). So, considering Devon is one of the UKs favourite holiday destinations and you’ve found a true gem of a property, we hope you’ll book to stay with us. Well, don’t worry, not actually with us, naturally you’ll check in privately by means of coded access! We look forward to welcoming you.
