Introduction
Neil and Sally Taylor welcome you to the Torcroft Hotel, their small family run hotel in Torquay, Devon’s major seaside town.
The Torcroft Hotel is an elegant Victorian hotel situated within walking distance of the seafront at Torquay. It has 15 en-suite bedrooms, parking and a delightful south-facing garden with partial sea views.
The atmosphere is both friendly and peaceful. We do not accept stag or hen parties, but are happy to accept booking from sporting groups and other associations.
The hotel is close to the Riviera Centre, so is convenient for visitors attending conferences. It is also five minutes’ walk from the Princess Theatre, which showcases excellent shows throughout the year.
Small, well behaved dogs are welcome (as long as they don’t chase Oscar, our ragdoll cat).
Bikers are welcome. Nearby Paignton hosts BMAD (Bikers Make a Difference) Bike Festival in the early summer, and Wednesday nights are bike nights in Paignton during the summer months.
The Torcroft Hotel makes an excellent base from which to explore the delights of South Devon, being close to the village of Cockington, the River Dart with Kingswear and Dartmouth on each bank, and several National Trust properties.
A day’s outing to Dartmoor and surrounding villages.
About us

Both Neil and Sally are keen runners and choral singers, and are planning to carry on running and singing in Devon. They plan to provide freshly cooked, healthy meals for guests, starting with a hearty breakfast!
