Grosvenor Hotel Torquay Devon
The Devon seaside resort of Torquay is known as the jewel in the crown of the English Riviera and with good reason. It boasts one of the mildest, sunniest climates in the country, which means you can make the most of the town's fabulous sandy beaches, scenic coastal walks and numerous tourist attractions. Ideally placed within strolling distance of all of this, The Grosvenor occupies two adjoining Victorian villas, parts of which have recently been restored. Public lounges boast high ceilings, original features and chandeliers. At the back are spacious lawned gardens and a seasonal outdoor swimming pool. On less clement days you can make use of the hotel's leisure facilities, which include a small indoor pool, sauna, hot tub and gym.
No Devon stay would be complete without succumbing to the temptation of a cream tea and The Grosvenor welcomes you with a delicious spread - with rich clotted cream and melt-in-the-mouth scones. It's a guilty pleasure you can soon work off, as the hotel is ideally located for a number of walks, such as exploring the haunts of former resident Agatha Christie or wandering round the marina. Zoos, a theatre and museums add to Torquay's impressive portfolio of attractions, keeping even the most jaded of visitors entertained. After a packed day out, enjoy a tasty repast in the Grosvenor's attractive restaurant. Retire to the comfort of your traditionally styled room for a comfortable night's sleep.
