Post Christmas Family Get-together

Torquay Shores was an excellent choice for our extended family group gathering. Very clean, spacious and welcoming. Having linen and towels provided by host was greatly appreciated. Fully equipped kitchen and indoor and outdoor games areas for children. Outdoor shelter to keep our pooch happy. High chair and cot provided was a bonus.

Family Holiday in Torquay

Great property with a fantastic homely feel, all the comforts you would need for a long or short stay. Amenities were fantastic with plenty to keep the kids occupied. Beds were super comfortable and the layout was perfect for our group, our only criticism is the tri bunk room with the ceiling fan is a bit of a concern as it is very close to the bed if you forgot you could easily hit your head. All in all the property and the owner were wonderful to deal with and we had a great stay (albeit too short!) And the complimentary chocolates on arrival were a lovely touch

As a child Torquay was where we spent endless days with the family, picnicking and swimming. We have so many wonderful memories of glorious days down at the beach and now we want to share the beauty of the Surf Coast with other people as well.
