About this property

This quaint yet contemporary terraced cottage is situated in the vibrant seaside resort town of Torquay, Devon, and is perfect for a small family looking for a peaceful summer retreat. The property has been furnished to an excellent standard throughout with coastal holidays in mind; the entrance of the cottage can be found through the private gated patio area, which is a beautiful suntrap featuring modern potted plants and an outdoor seating area where you can dine alfresco and listen to the calming sounds of the coast. Harbourside Cottage is approximately 200 metres from the harbour. Entering into the property, you'll find a small yet well-equipped kitchen featuring an electric oven, four-ring gas hob, washing machine, fridge, freezer and a microwave. For colder nights, step into the open-plan dining room and sitting room where you can settle down for a hearty family meal or warm up next to the pebble-effect electric fire in the sitting room. Leading up onto the first floor, you will find a family bathroom to wash your sandy feet after a day at the beach, which includes an electric shower over bath, WC, hand basin and a towel rack. Completing the first floor are two stylish, whitewash bedrooms to wind down in after a day at the beach, made up of a 5" king-size bedroom and a 3" single bedroom, both with contemporary laminate wood flooring and superb elevated town views. The lively coastal town of Torquay has an excellent variety of cafes, restaurants and shops to choose from and boasts multiple attractions and delights to suit all ages and tastes, including scenic coastal walks, the Torquay Museum, Torquay Golf Course, a beautiful seascape harbour and pier, and a fine selection of sandy beaches.

  • Trisha

    It was quaint and comfortable. We would highly recommend staying her. Plus we would stay there again ourselves.

  • Anthony

    The cottage was lovely and clean and very comfortable with everything you need for the perfect stay. Others have mentioned the stairs and they are quirky but perfectly manageable. Joff was a perfect host and communicated every step of the way offering tips on where to unload and park and how to apply for a car park permit which was a great idea, worked out really well for the week, a lovely chap. All in all a great place.
