Driftwood Cottage, Luxury character cottage in The English Riviera, close to the picturesque precinct of St Marychurch, a short walk to the stunning beaches of Babbacombe and Oddicombe!
Welcome to Driftwood Cottage.
St Marychurch is a charming suburb close to the delights of Babbacombe Bay and Torquay. It’s a lovely place to stay with its delightful pedestrianised precinct and everywhere is within easy walking distance. You’ll find lots of independently owned boutiques and family-run businesses here and St Marychurch’s unique personality is why so many people fall in love with the place and come back year after year. One of the very oldest settlements in South Devon, St Marychurch’s two historic church towers dominate the Torquay skyline.
