We had a great stay in Torquay. The house was very spacious with great separation between all the bedrooms and multiple living areas - perfect for our group of 6. It’s about a 20 minute stroll to the Main Street for restaurants but the walk along the Esplanade is beautiful.
The house was clearly “lived in” - some of the kitchen appliances (microwave, oven, bbq) were unclean and there were various miscellaneous items left in cupboards and wardrobes (one kitchen cupboard had a plastic snake in it, which gave us the fright of our lives!).
Overall we had a great stay.
