What a spot! Gary's place was ideal for our little family getaway :)) Husband was able to surf a short walk around the corner, and we could step right out the front onto the beach with the small people or stroll up the road for a play on the playground or a bite to eat in one of the many family friendly cafés along the Esplanade. Big plus was when the kids were sleeping, we could sit out on the balcony, bask in the sun, see the beach and watch the world go by so you could still feel amongst it all :))
Gary was incredibly helpful with all his local recommendations and very generous with check-in and check- out flexibility which was greatly appreciated (to work around our 2 & 1 year olds routines AND to make the most of the stunning weather Torquay put on for us for the weekend)! :D
Overall a fantastic experience - made to feel like a home away from home. We will be back for sure! Thanks for having us Gary :D
