LOCATION:
Torquay town centre and seafront are both less than 1 mile distant. Torre Railway Station is a few hundred yards walk, and the main number 12 bus service, which links Torquay with Preston, Paignton, Brixham and Newton Abbot runs immediately outside.
In addition to life by the seaside, communication links include access to the intercity network at Newton Abbot with trains to London Paddington (fastest journey time 2 hours 35 minutes), Bristol and the North of England. The recently completed Kingskerswell by-pass has improved journey times to Exeter and the M5 motorway. The University City of Exeter, approximately 21 miles away, has its historic cathedral, vibrant shopping areas and a regional airport operating direct flights to London City Airport.
The sheltered sailing waters of the Tor Bay area are a mecca for water sports enthusiasts, with an award winning 440 berth marina providing a safe harbour. Away from the coast the softly rolling hillsides of Devon hides pretty market towns and the dramatic beauty of Dartmoor, one of two national parks in the county.
