Designed with the holidaymaker in mind

RIVIERA RETREAT has been designed by Suzanne (an experienced holiday property owner) especially with your needs in mind. She wanted to create a simple, relaxing and comfortable place for groups of up to 19 guests to enjoy, in a part of the world she is passionate about.

Group sizes vary so much that Suzanne set out to create a very flexible solution, offering additional individual beds and bedrooms in a connected annexe to this property. So if you need more space, for up to 29 people, you can book it (each additional bedroom/bed is charged extra).

The communal areas are vast and different to whats offered in other town centre self catering properties. The entrance lobby leads to a fantastic games room leading to the fully equipped kitchen and massive dining room.

Step down into your own bar area which all our guests really enjoy and relax in the spacious lounge with big sofas. See photos and details of the communal areas here.

WHY TORQUAY?

Torquay is in the heart of the English Riviera, teeming with holiday attractions, fabulous beaches, and a huge array of international restaurants, making you wonder why should you even need to travel abroad?

The charming Torquay harbour is 5 minutes’ walk from Riviera Retreat and has so much to offer – crabbing, fishing, boat trips, sunny al fresco restaurants, cafes and bars (some roof-top with fabulous views), nightlife, ice cream parlours, tourist shops, live music, Dinosaur world, Casinos and so much more.

Torquay was always a busy tourist destination but now is proving even more popular for staycations in the last months of 2020.

Our property represents great value for money, refurbished ready for holidaymakers choosing to stay in the UK instead of travelling abroad.

In Sept 2020 it was reported that three-quarters of respondents (71%) to a survey were intending to plan a UK holiday in 2021. Suggesting that the great British staycation is not just a short term solution to the coronavirus pandemic, but a long-term option for holidaymakers.

We hope that the threat of COVID-19 to our communities reduces in 2021 and everyone can start to enjoy a more “normal” way of life, together with friends and family.

There is no better place to do it than in the warmer weather in the beautiful Torbay area.

We hope to welcome you here soon.
