Beautiful property and close to town. Flowers and milk a nice touch for our arrival.

Had a lovely week here and would recommend Torwood Gables without hesitation. Car park is a little small if you have a large car but that can’t be changed. It’s in easy walking distance of the harbour, shops and restaurants but remember it’s an uphill walk back. Will be checking if it’s available next time I decide to visit South Devon.
