Reviews: 8.7 rating, praised for cleanliness and space
“The inherent charm of this converted stable is its playful exploration of space, most notably with its cleverly integrated hidden rooms that proved a significant hit. Comfort is clearly a priority, with exceptionally comfortable beds and well-appointed bathrooms ensuring a restful stay. Its central Torquay location, however, seals the deal, placing you within easy walking distance of the harbour and all the town's amenities.”
