Owners Insight

"We have been lucky enough to live here at Ocean View for 3 years. The benefits of living in such a beautiful area with dual access into St Marychurch & Babbacombe on foot is amazing. We moved over from Paignton and immediately had no Issues meeting people and forming ever lasting friendships.

You just can’t beat enjoying the Babbacombe Downs and all of its amenities on a lovely Summers Day, everyday can feel like a holiday if you want it to be. The community sprit here is off the scale, for more quiet reflection times we recommend a stroll through Tessier Gardens all cared for by the community."
