Treated like a Queen
"We could not have been more spoiled and well taken care of.
Gary and Philip really know how to make you feel welcome and nothing was too much trouble.
Thank you so much for a fantastic trip and for proving to me that a B & B in Torquay CAN be all that!”
Guest review published on TripAdvisor November 2019
Gary and Philip became the new owners of The Torcroft in September 2019. Gary and Philip fell in love with The Torcroft the first time they visited her and are proud and delighted to run such a wonderful establishment.
Gary & Philip have a simple philosophy - guests feel special, and every effort is made to ensure their stay is memorable. At The Torcroft the atmosphere is relaxed, classy and comfortable.
Plans for 2020 include refurbishing several guest rooms, the lounge and bar and the dining room, to return to the class, luxury and glamour of the original Gentleman's Residence.
Minka, our Hungarian Vizsla also lives at The Torcroft. Minka is very well trained and never goes upstairs or accesses guest bedrooms. Minka shares Gary and Philip's accomodation and communal areas on the ground floor. We recognise not all guests are dog lovers, so please let us know if you are nervous around dogs, to ensure Minka gives you plenty of space. Minka is 11 years old, so at busy times prefers her own company, but is often here to greet guests when they arrive.
