About this property

Monkswell Park Garden Rooms is self-contained accommodation that has been fully renovated with all modern conveniences and with stunning panoramic sea views over Lyme bay.
For additional detail see our web site, ask us for details.

Monkswell Park dates back to the 1920s, and is described in Pevsner's Buildings of England as 'The most distinguished property tucked into the slopes overlooking Hope Cove with wings angled to create a protected terrace with veranda facing the sea.' With fabulous sea views over Lyme Bay Monkswell Park benefits from an extremely rural and quiet, picturesque cliff top location, but is only one and a half miles from Torquay town centre, and approximately twenty miles from the historic city of Exeter. There are excellent local shops and restaurants nearby, and a sandy beach within half a mile of the property. There is also 'near-private' access to a pebble beach from the one and a half acre lawn garden. The nearest railway station is Torquay although Newton Abbot is only seven miles away. The nearest airport is Exeter

Perfect Retreat

Absolutely wonderful holiday accommodation. Everything that we needed for our family of 4. The location was a short drive to Torquay centre. Far enough away for peace and relaxation. We could happily spend our whole summer there. Bliss.

Wonderful. Wow those views 😀😀

We loved our stay here, the location and views are superb. We loved eating breakfast and dinner out on the patio everyday with those views. Excellent dark night sky's for astronomy, and we saw the Milky Way for the first time, in all its glory. Lovely hosts with a well presented property, we will definitely be back, this is a real hidden gem.

We certainly enjoyed our time and will tell our friends

We stayed for a week in August 2018 and used the cottage as a base to discover the area. It was a great pleasure to return each evening to such wonderful sea views.

We enjoyed our stay at Monkswell Park very much with our 5 year old boy.

A clean and fully equiped garden appartement on two floors. Very quiet and privat. Direct access to the privat brandy cove with beautiful stones to find. An excellent view over the sea with gardenfurniture to enjoy breakfast and dinner outside. Very friendly welcome of Jenny and Julian. We felt like in "Beverly Hills" with the nice villas around Ilsham Marine Drive.
