Holiday Cottages Southwest

At the start of May I was fortunate enough to spend a few days at the glorious At The Beach holiday apartments at Torcross in Devon and believe me they are without equal, you could not hope for a better 5 star holiday destination for your self catering holiday, the breathtaking views across Slapton Sands are a delight to behold.

The apartments are decorated and furnished to a very luxurious standard, with all the mod cons and a fabulous designer fitted kitchen. Nothing can beat breakfast on the terrace, basking in the morning sun and listening to the sounds of the sea.

The village of Torcross is blessed with a wonderful pub the Start Bay Inn whose reputation for selling the best fish and chips in Devon is not unfounded. For a quick snack visit the Seaspray cafe the ham, cheese and tomato paninis simply melt in the mouth.

There is a beautiful coastal cliff walk to the rear of the complex which takes you to the nearby village of Beesands and beyond with the option of returning via the beach depending on the tides.

Situated on a quiet part of the South Devon coast at Slapton Ley, midway between Dartmouth and Kingsbridge this beautiful location has unbelievable panoramic views, awesome coastal walks, perfect for adventure, exploration or simply relaxation, well away from the demands and hustle of daily life, yet close enough to the City of Plymouth and the beautiful towns of Torbay for those who require a bit of variety.

At The Beach is located on the site of the former Torcross Hotel, it has been thoroughly renovated and modernised with a complete new internal layout to become this astounding complex of 15 apartments and 3 cottages.
