General Info
Housed within Astor House; a Victorian villa with one of the best views in Torquay, Beach View Suite is a bright and modern apartment where high ceilings add a sense of grandeur and space, and big windows showcase the spectacular sea views beyond.
Designed for family holidays, the light-flooded living area is open-plan, with the kitchen, and features two armchairs positioned at the window, as well as a plush sofa that converts to a comfortable 5ft bed. This is the perfect place to relax after a day spent exploring the coast, and the glass dining table within this space creates a lovely space to enjoy dinners with a view. The separate master bedroom, which has been tastefully styled and furnished, lies off the main living area and has a super king-sized bed and its own Smart TV. One of the highlights of the property is its fabulous balcony, which has incredible views across the bay. Enjoy breakfast in the sunshine, or watch the sunset with a glass of bubbly, all while soaking up the stunning scenes of a shifting sky and sparkling sea.
With Torquay’s palm tree-lined promenade, Princess Gardens, and the harbour just a few minutes’ walk from the front door, guests can experience all that the town is famous for without the need to drive. There are many good restaurants in the immediate area, too, including Pier Point, which overlooks the marina, and Rockfish on the town’s harbour. Hop on the ferry from the harbour and sail over to Brixham, where you can stroll the Breakwater and enjoy fish and chips on the quay. Or drive there and stop off at Paignton Pier or Paignton Zoo along the way for a fabulous outing with the kids. Cockington Village and Country Park is just 2 miles away, while Babbacombe Downs, a few minutes’ drive, has several good restaurants as well as its Cliff Railway.
