The Boathouse
Entire home in Torbay, United Kingdom
The gentle sea breeze echoes through this vibrant, charming, detached cottage, with unspoiled elevated views across Torbay from the rock-walled patio, living space and king-size bedroom's covered balcony. Styled in calm, refreshing shades with Smart TVs throughout, up to 6 can stay in three double bedrooms. Parking for one car, dogs welcome.
The space
The moment you step inside The Boathouse, you’ll be captivated by the refreshing open-plan layout as the kitchen seamlessly merges with the living area, offering panoramic sea views of the marina and Torbay. As you settle into the cosy living space, let the sea air flow through, or take to the balcony to broaden the amazing vista. In the cooler months, also enjoy the warm glow of the wood-burning stove (ample wood, kindling, and firelighters are provided). Next to the kitchen area, the high dining table seats four. The feature-packed smart TV lets you stream your favourite on-demand programmes (subscriptions required) and adjusts to the ambient light for uninterrupted viewing, come rain or shine. There’s also a DVD player for your own choice of movies.The ground floor also includes a cosy bedroom with a new double bed with a toilet and basin. Ideal for children, there’s even another smart TV so they can enjoy their programmes while the grown-ups relish some quiet time.
Upstairs there are two further bedrooms. To the rear, a nice-sized double bedroom, and to the front, the king-size bedroom with a large open-plan balcony to enjoy yet more spectacular sea views. Each bedroom is also equipped with a smart TV.
Between the bedrooms is the family bathroom. Framed in subtle nautical-green brick tiles, there’s a corner shower, curved shower bath with shower attached, plus a basin and toilet. It is also worth mentioning that there is also an large illuminated Bluetooth mirror with inbuilt speakers that plays music from any Bluetooth device.
This unforgettable retreat is private and secure from front to rear for the little ones and beloved pets.

The Boat House has a tremendous view of Torbay, and it’s extremely close to the harbour - so you have easy access to all of the restaurants, bars, and shopping within a 5-10 minute walk! Be prepared to do a lot of walking (and stairs) - but you’ll get that anywhere in Torquay! The house was the perfect size for our group of 4, and provided comfortable sleeping arrangements for everyone, as well as outdoor space to enjoy the beautiful weather. We love Torquay and we thoroughly enjoyed the Boat House!

We spent a week at the beach house, the first thing I’ll say is that if you have any mobility issues then this isn’t the place for you as there are quite a few steps to navigate. However, we had a great week at the beach house. Siting looking out at the sea with my morning coffee was a wonderful way to start my morning. On arrival we were met with a lovely bottle of Prosecco, biscuits and there was also some coffee and tea which was very much appreciated. The house itself is lovely, clean, spacious and a very comfortable home to help us enjoy our holiday. It’s very easy to walk into town or to the beach making it perfect for families. We had some minor queries which were dealt with very quickly. I would absolutely recommend The Beach House to family and friends and very much look forwards to staying again.
