Torquay Stay
Good first impression and really pleased with the facilities on offer. The kitchen was very well equipped and there were some nice welcoming touches, such as the dish of chocolates. Although the property was used just by adults on this occasion, it would be very suitable for a multi generational group, as there were different games and sports equipment available.
