About this property

Substantial apartment close to the seafront and town

Now completely refurbished and ready for our guests! New kitchen, bathrooms, heating and flooring throughout! And a new 4 poster bed!

The garden flat at Sorrento is a large spacious three bed, two bath flat set in an elegant Victorian Villa.

It is in a quiet location yet very centrally located for Torqay with its activities, beaches and harbour and has its own private off road parking space for convenience and peace of mind.

The flat is perfectly laid out for larger families or a pair of families travelling together:

The main bedroom has a king sized bed with its own ensuite bathroom.

The second bedroom has a king sized four poster bed with its own seating area with a leather sofa and a 50" flat screen TV.

The third bedroom has two single beds.

The main family bathroom has a bath with overhead shower.

The lounge has an L shaped leather sofa as well as a convertible sofa bed and features a 50" flat screen TV. The property also has superfast wifi.

The dining area will seat 6 people and the flat has a well equipped kitchen if you wish to self cater.

There is large communal garden that guests are welcome to use and we are happy to accept well behaved dogs.

In summary, the Garden Apartment is a relaxing and secluded home ideally situated to explore Torquay and the wider delights of Devon.

GREAT APARTMENT AND LOCATION

The apartment was perfect with all necessary amenities (including bath towels) and was ideally located for access to Torquay sea front. Plenty of excellent pubs and restaraunts within easy walking distance or a five minute taxi ride if preferred. Would highly recommend.

Immaculate and spacious place in centre of Torquay

The apartment was spacious for our family of 5 and immaculately kept. Communication with the owner was clear with sufficient information to make our stay straightforward. We appreciated the thoughtful welcome package left by the owners. The property was very convenient for walking into the centre of Torquay and for driving out to the attractions around the Torbay area. Overall a highly recommended place for a family stay in Torquay!

Modern flat with some flaws

It is a nice modern flat, but there is mold in two bedrooms. The description is misleading, as four bedrooms are indicated, but there are only three.

Beautiful Accomadation

Very clean and well equipped. Was spacious, We had 6 adults and two dogs and didn't struggle at all. Kitchen was very well equipped and loved the pasta dish left to cook also the bottle in the fridge. Loved the dishwasher and washing machine both had tablets ready to go. Location was close to town but was up very steep hill. We managed fine but not for faint hearted.

About the host

Hosted by Robert

Host profile image
I was born in Torquay and have lived here most of my life after studying at Uni in London decided this was where I wanted to live. Robert has joined me here after living in London and we enjoy everything about living here especially our shared passion for our horses.
We love travelling and have been all over the world as well as all around the UK staying in a whole variety of accommodation from 5 star to off the grid in the mountains.
We have taken everything we have learnt from our stays in other properties to offer our guests the best stay that we can.

Why they chose this property

We have owned another holiday let property for a while (4 Torwood Gables, to be found on VrBo, Booking.com and Airbnb) which has proved to be very popular so when we saw the opportunity to offer the same level of service at a flat close to the centre of Torquay we jumped at the chance.

What makes this property unique

Sorrento is unusual as it offers a peaceful setting with communal gardens close to Torquay Centre and the Harbour area.
The large rooms of the converted Victorian Villa give an airy feel and the property has the added convenience of an off street parking space makes for a stree free stay.
