Torquay Mini Break
Lovely house, clean and well appointed. I took my parents who are elderly and a bit disabled. The showers and powder room toilet had grab rails, which was excellent. The floor is non-slip, and okne level, which was also a bonus with elderly people. We had our cavoodle inside with us. We will defititely be rebooking. The house is in a fabulous location close to shops.

Easy, clean and surprisingly big
A great property just a very short walk from both the village and shopping precincts. A great secure yard for my dog and a very well presented home. I really enjoyed sitting on the patio in the morning sun while having my coffee.
