Cottage holiday rentals in Torquay

Debbie’s place is a little piece of paradise, the setting is stunning, the gardens are fantastic and the cottage is warm and cosy whilst also being spacious and really well laid out. We had everything we needed and immediately felt at home. The open plan kitchen into the cosy living room left us all feeling connected, utility space was really useful, conservatory with stunning views allowed us to dine together and relax during the day. Outside area is also stunning for meals on the patio and bbq’s and the hot tub was great to relax in on an evening looking at the stars in peace and tranquility.. there’s a slight walk up to the property across a field but once you’re in the cottage and its gardens it’s worth every step. Great for the dogs too. Loads to do in the area, our highlight was Lyme Regis beach.. many thanks to Debbie and everyone who made us feel so welcome. We would go back to Debbie’s place in a heartbeat!

Linsey was very approachable, always answered any questions. My grandad fell ill the day we were meant to come and she was very understanding as why we couldn’t make it

A very good house — quiet and peaceful. Everything was clean, tidy, and comfortable. I will definitely stay here again. Highly recommended

Lovely cottage, had everything we needed for a great week. Well appointed kitchen and bathrooms. All the crockery, utensils and pans you need for cooking. Hot tub was certainly a favourite and well used! Nice to have plastic ‘glasses’ for use outside. Great selection of games was a nice surprise. Being able to walk the dog right from the doorstep made it so easy - we really enjoyed exploring the smallholding. Hosts were very quick to respond with answers and support. Yes, the Tesco delivery man did manage to find us and unload :-)

Emma and her family were lovely and welcoming. She was available whenever we needed something and was very approachable. Her home is nice, private and spacious, the kitchen although we knew it was small was a little hard to work in especially with little ones. The rooms all had en-suites which was extremely useful when younger ones needed to use the toilet at the same time. Downside was only one shower/ bath could be used at a time due to water pressure. She told us this upon arrival and we just worked around it. The garden is beautiful, children really enjoyed they’re time as plenty of space to run around. Loved the white bedding and soft furnishings as it always helps make a place feel clean and fresh.

The surroundings were lovely and a large enclosed garden was great for the dog and our 3 children. we had many a happy night in the hot tub. Lots of things for the kids to play with. We drove to all the local beaches would say most things are within an hour's drive and would recommend watermouth castle as a day out if you have kids!

Thank you for a lovely stay. Lovely accomodation in a beautiful, peaceful setting. We enjoyed walks around the farm and we were joined by one of the hosts dogs a couple of times which we loved. We even managed to see an otter down at the river on our first night! Bird and hedgehog watching from the hot tub with a glass of bubbly… bliss.

Booked this house for a hen do. It was beautiful - the photos really do not do it justice. The cottage was pristine, had everything you needed. It was decorated tastefully, and was the perfect setting for a group of hens for the weekend!! The Cary Arms who manage this property are amazing hosts - so proactive, friendly and accommodating to the many many requests I submitted including having an ice bucket on hand for arrival, extra prosecco flutes for drinks, flexible check in. The only word of warning is the very steep road the cottage is located on. It’s not for the faint hearted!! But they are so helpful in moving cars for you where required. We finished the weekend at the spa which was just what the doctor ordered!! Followed by lunch at the inn which was delicious. Overall a wonderful team and house!! Great memories made this weekend and our bride was over the moon

Absolutely loved our stay at Cotmore farm. Perfect for our family. Our 3 and 1 year old were very happy there playing with the rocking horse, trampoline and seeing all the animals. Piers and Sue were incredibly welcoming. look forward to coming back!

Thyme cottage was such a beautiful and peaceful place to stay. The cottage is characterful and comfortable and well equipped. The fireplace was a wonderful, warm touch. The village of Woodbury Salterton is charming and friendly and close to Exeter. The Diggers Rest is a must! Stop in for a friendly pint or even better for a meal. The food is delicious and beautifully presented. Thyme cottage will be among our top stays.

The Nook was a lovely cottage right in the centre of town close to all amenities, it was also quiet, the cottage had everything in it that you could wish for and the thought that has gone into it is exceptional especially regarding dogs. We were so grateful that Tania was able to accommodate us at very short notice. We will definitely be returning

Had a lovely couple of nights at coastguard cottage - loved falling asleep and being able to hear the sea! Great location with walks and beautiful beaches nearby. Lots of beach facilioties on the nearest beach because of the holiday camp - but secluded coves just over the hill on the coastal path if you wanted to be on an empty beach. Burgh Island round the coast absolutely delightful. The house was bright and cheery and had everything we needed for a perfect stay! Zoe and Charlie super helpful and welcoming hosts. Really loved it!

Was working in the area and we decided to stay here for 4 nights. Fantastic house, very clean and tidy. Lovely place. Would definitely stay again and can recommend for familys.

Great venue. Amazing for families or couples. Beaches, restaurants, walks, shops all within 10 minutes. Perfect to stay with your pooches The hosts are very responsive to any enquiries. You will not regret staying here!

We had a wonderful stay at Katy’s place. It was so very peaceful with beautiful surroundings. Having the enclosed courtyard was invaluable, as I was alone some days with the dogs and it meant I didn’t have to worry about where they were, as it was totally secure and private. The kitchen facilities were everything I needed for cooking, the property was spotless and relaxing and of high quality throughout. Walking from the door up the lane to the woods was fabulous with the dogs. And the homemade scones on arrival were amazing. Thank you Katy for a wonderful stay.

Wanted to come back as soon as we left! The cottage and its surrounding areas are absolutely stunning. Perfect for a relaxing getaway and a change of scenery. We were given a lovely recommendation for the Rugglestone Inn which we absolutely loved! Easy access to the moor and nearby village of Widecombe. The cottage is fully equipped with everything we could ever need. Not to mention its log fire which brought the whole place together as well as its comfy bed! We will be returning at some point in the near future! Can’t get enough of the place!

We had a great few days staying at The Old Piggery at Longmeadow Farm. The location is very quiet and peaceful with lovely views of the estuary. The cottage is perfect for two and was very clean with everything we needed for our stay. The bed was especially comfortable. We enjoyed walking from the door around Sheldon and The Ness and also walking on Dartmoor. Thank you, Hannah, for making us feel so welcome.

Little Timbers is a wonderful retreat in the gorgeous village of Coffinswell. The accommodation provided everything we needed and more, and was very comfortable indeed. Tim and Chrissie are fantastic hosts, respectful of their guests privacy but always on hand for any questions and smiling faces when you see them in the garden. If ever we are back in the area, we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. top tip: book the Linny Inn (a short walk up the road) for dinner: you won't regret it!

Had a lovely few days in the hutch. Chloe is a fantastic host, came to welcome and to say goodbye, also kept in contact throughout my stay to check I was ok. The hutch is lovely and immaculate, with everything provided. Lovely quiet spot with great views but really close to amenities and transport links. I would definitely recommend and would stay again!

A lovely, homely cottage. Clean, spacious and beautifully presented with a private parking space and garden. The bed was very comfortable which is a must to get a good nights sleep after a busy day exploring the sights or relaxing on the beach. The cottage is in a great location. It was very easy to find and within a short walk from bars , restaurants, local shops, the Model Village and more importantly the beach. At one end of the street is a bus stop, for £3 you can go to Torquay Harbour. We caught the ferry to Brixham for the day. So much to see and do. We highly recommend a visit to Greenway, the holiday home of Agatha Christie and also a trip on the Round Robin. We booked this at Torquay Harbour. It's great value and includes a bus from Paignton to Totnes, a ferry on the River Dart to Dartmouth then a steam train back to Paignton. All in all we had a wonderful holiday and would like to return, not only to Torquay but also St George Cottage.

Wonderful cottage set in a beautiful garden. Well equipped with everything you could need. Nancy was extremely helpful. Will definitely be back …. hopefully very soon.

A fantastic apartment in the heart of Brixham. The view from the kitchen is absolutely stunning and if you're luckily enough to enjoy some sunshine the patio is fabulous too. Brixham itself is a wonderful harbour to explore with great walks to enjoy from the town itself. Lots of steps to and from the apartment but just adds to the adventure. Thank you for a great stay!

Very comfortable cottage with high end amenities with everything you need. The ponies and the moors are literally right on your doorstep. Hot tip: Walk to the Nine Maidens and take a hidden path behind the houses from Belstone to Sticklepath to visit the National Trust Finch Foundry (we loved the tour)!

Alia’s cottage may possibly be the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed at. The cottage is super cute, thoughtfully designed and immaculately clean. It was like staying at a hotel only better because there is a living room and a kitchen. It had everything we needed and nothing we didn’t that cluttered the space. Alia was responsive and helpful, giving me recommendations ahead of the trip. There were games and books to keep my kids occupied. It had a gorgeous view. The area was lovely with an easily accessible coffee shop and pub. South Devon takes you back to medieval England with thatched roofs, prehistoric sites like Dartmoor National Park is and beaches and a water park.
