Excellent location, close to restaurants, shops and cafes

Excellent location and Elizabeth made it really easy for us checking in. The place was clean and had everything we needed. The beach is literally 50m away. Onsite parking was really appreciated too as it got quite busy along the esplanade on Good Friday. Everything was within walking distance including dog beaches.

Fabulous Stay!

We had a great few days in Beach House 2. Easy walking distance to shops, front beach and even the surf beach. We found the accommodation comfortable, private and quiet. Would certainly come again. Elizabeth was a joy to liaise with and very professional.

Good property close to the beach

Great location - you can walk out onto the street and see the beach. Few minutes walk away. Stayed in Beachouse No 2 which was a bit on the small side. Good setp up with most amentities (although you will need to bring your own tea towels etc) Big plus that is dog friendly and there was a secure outside area. Double beds a bit on the small side and the problem with the upstairs room is that the sun comes in (so no sleep ins). OVerall very good and would stay there again
Response from VrboOwner on 18 July 2021

Beautifully presented beach house close to everything Torquay has to offer

Loved our 2 night stay at this Torquay beach house. Very comfortable with 2 couples and a toddler (we brought our own portacot). We could walk almost everywhere. Great communication with Elizabeth made everything easy. The only thing I can fault was the empty BBQ gas bottle, but wasn't a problem as there were so many lovely places to eat out nearby.

A little gem in an excellent location

Such a great little beach house with plenty of space and get outdoor area. Short walk to the beach and centre of town. It was very easy to communicate with owner to get all essential information and was very accommodating allowing us to check out a little later than normal! I look forward to staying again - thank you :)

A great home away from home if you have pets

We had a fantastic time, location is great, and being able to bring a furry family member was a big plus. He had an outdoor undercover area and secure space outside. Literally across the road from the dog beach was great, no walking through crowds, will definitely book again.

Disappointing inside

Over rated and overpriced..Pleasant looking property and great location, but very disappointing, more 3 star inside than 4.5, a quarter a roll of toilet paper left for the weekend, no toilet roll holder, toilet paper had to sit on the floor, basic bathroom, very uncomfortable and dated lounge suite, dining, beds
Response from VrboOwner on 18 July 2021
I am sorry you found the house disappointing...there is extra amenities in the bathroom cupboard . I am sorry you did not find the house comfortable I know when you arrived you wanted extra items that were not included in the price and whilst we include tea/coffee supplies, shampoo/soaps etc..Chocoltaes on arrival as a gift..... . we try to please all our guests where we can. Wood is supplied free of charge for the Wiinter monthsas stated on the website and we have great professional cleaners who we feel do a brilliant job. The location is brilliant as you said, and whilst we never claim to be a 5 star resort, we believe overall the beach cottages are well equipped and enjoyed by many repeat customers.

A nice place to stay

In a fully equipped kitchen I would like to see a coffee plunger available & a bread knife. Shame the garden was over grown out the back, which makes it difficult for your dog to find a spot to relieve her self.
Response from VrboOwner on 18 July 2021
Thank you... great scores on location and comfort thank you we did have an issue with a gardener but great news is we have now a reliable gardener coming regularly.... so this should not happen again I have taken on board the coffee plunger and bread knife ... great ideas!! thank you for your review... its much appreciated

Fantastic stays every time

We really enjoyed it. One adult and 2 young children. Torquay is perfect any time of year and has things to entertain them and places to eat. Will regularly return.
Response from VrboOwner on 18 July 2021
Thank you Nathan for your review! Yes Torquay has something different to offer each season... and I personally love it in Winter, especially on sunny days for walks on the beaches, and visiting the eateries. I see you have rebooked... we look forward to welcoming you again cheers Elizabeth

OK

We were disappointed as this is a dog friendly accommodation, yet no grassed area for a toilet, had to go down the street often which was an inconvenience. Also the beds were very uncomfortable.
Response from VrboOwner on 18 July 2021
Thank you for taking time to review. Being opposite a dog friendly beach is such a draw card, and whilst there are garden beds and paved areas in the back area, this was the look we decided on to help keep it neat and tidy. Shame about the beds, we have had many people say there so comfortable... I guess everyone's tastes are different Cheers elizabeth

Comfortable with everything you need.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, so close to the beachside. We enjoyed a different run or cycle track each day, just to stay up with sourcing a different food venue each night, all within walking distance. Fabulous location!!! Host most helpful and always contactable. Warm log fire was a huge bonus during winter.
Response from VrboOwner on 18 July 2021
Thanks Gill for the great review.... Might have to include some of these runs and walking tracks Ina compendium I am working on. Looking forward to having you come back again soon Cheers Elizabeth xx

Great beach house with everything you could need

Fully stocked kitchen, lovely property managers, large living area and a very short walk to the dog beach at Torquay. One small note: If you have small dogs like us, you might need to bring some mesh to cover the gate at the side as our little dogs could squeeze through the bars :)
Response from VrboOwner on 18 July 2021
Thanks Bianca... Always hard with little dogs, so thanks for the tip and thanks for taking the time to write a lovely review. See you next time! Cheers Elizabeth
