Another fantastic stay at Muntham!
This was our 3rd stay at the Muntham Appartments (6th stay with Torquay holiday Lettings in total) & was fantastic as always. Grant & Adam always make us feel very welcome and valued guests. Our room was spotlessly clean as always and stocked with the essentials, as well as some lovely treats too. Brody (our doggie) is always happy staying here, he’s supplied with useful throws/towels etc. as well as some tasty treats and lots of affection from both Grant & Adam and is always excited to see them. The location is great with some lovely cafes, pubs and restaurants within walking distance and some good food recommendations from both Grant & Adam, a great personal touch.
I would highly recommend staying here & look forward to our next stay.
Lovely self contained apartment in a beautiful home. Very comfortable. Plenty of parking and great location to leave the car and travel by bus to neighbouring towns and attractions. Super host welcomed us and gave us lots of information about the area we knew where to find him if we needed anything but otherwise left alone to come and go at will. Downhill walk into Torquay takes about 10-15 mins, bus stop about 2 minutes away. The walk back from bus stop is a bit of a killer so save a bit of energy!! Perfect stay, can’t wait to go back xx
I can’t praise this place enough. We had a lovely greeting, and a thorough introduction to dog friendly areas and bars etc. We were upgraded as a bigger apartment was free. This was so good of the owners Adam and Grant. Our dog had his own basket of blankets and treats, along with a doggy towel if needed. Coffee, Tea and Milk was provided and much appreciated.
We had a comfortable stay in a very nice area. The local pub is friendly and had entertainment. It’s only a 20 minute walk to more bars and restaurants in nearby Babbacombe. The local bus is frequent and close by if required.
We had a fantastic time the apartment was lovely everything we needed to enjoy our holiday great communication with property manager will definitely be coming back again.
We really enjoyed ourstay hear ,the room was spotless .with excellent facility’s ,could not of been better ,very enjoyable

Garden View
Grant and Adam were wonderful hosts with lots of knowledge of the area and wonderful suggestions for activities. They were pleasant every time we asked questions or needed anything.
The apartment was modern and had some wonderful amenities such as the welcome items, a heated towel rack, coffee press, black out curtains, comfortable bed, and quality linens. We used the washers and dryers. It was a great solution for allowing us to pack fewer clothes.
We walked to stores, restaurants, the Kent Caverns, and the harbor. It’s a great location. The number 22 bus was a five minute walk if you wanted to go further. We would definitely stay here again.

Positively perfect!
Excellent in every way. We were given a one bedroom apartment instead of the studio we had booked which was a pleasant surprise. Quiet. Well appointed. Comfortable, clean - just lovely. Would have no hesitation in recommending to others. Would love to go back some day if we come back to the UK!

Perfect stopping point for visiting Devon and Cornwall
Very well appointed apartment with everything needed for short or longer term stay.
Was greeted by owner/manager who was very friendly and gave us lots of tips for local restaurants as well as places to visit during our stay.
Perfect place to stay for short or longer term visits to this beautiful part of the UK.
Highly recommended.

About the host
Hosted by Adam Millward
We have been running Torquay Holiday Lettings Ltd for nearly 10 years and have owned Muntham for 5 years. We are passionate about what we do. We want you to have the best home away while you are on holiday. We have a small team of dedicated staff who work hard to ensure you have a great time in our properties.
Why they chose this property
Muntham is a wonderful building that has survived extremely well. It has been lucky in that its previous owners have obviously loved it and taken care not to rip out stunning original features. It also has fantastic gardens that come to nearly an acre. This really does give you the feeling that you are in a tranquil oasis away from the cares of the World.
What makes this property unique
Beautiful period property with 5 apartments and a self contained luxury Town House. The apartments have all been recently renovated with new high quality kitchens and bathrooms. Its a wonderful, peaceful environment with lots of character and charm.
