Adam United States of America

I had a lovely stay at Coastal Waters. The owners are really friendly and helpful and the breakfast is really tasty and very generous. The single room is small, but clean and had a great tea and coffee station! From here, I explored Torquay as well as the surrounding area. Great, central location for a holiday in Devon. Highly recommend Coastal Waters as a place to stay.

Sian United Kingdom

The owners of Coastal Waters are welcoming, helpful and worked hard to make our stay a good one. Our room was spacious, well appointed and spotlessly clean. The breakfast was freshly cooked to order every morning. The centre of Torquay was a short walk away and we were given a free parking ticket for a local car park.
