Owners Insight

"We were attracted to this apartment due to the convenient location with local shops on the doorstep and being on a bus route. We also like being within walking distance of Torquay sea front and the lovely Cockington Country Park with the thatched Drum Inn where we have enjoyed sitting outside for a drink or two in the spring and summer months.

We have decided to move due to deteriorating health issues."
