Fowey Cottage is a stylish bungalow located in the quiet district of Shiphay in Torquay, just a couple of miles from the main seafront, marina, and town center. The modern holiday home offers contemporary furnishings, a sitting room with large leather sofas, a well-equipped kitchen, and two spacious bedrooms sharing a bathroom. The cottage also features a sunny, private patio garden that is completely enclosed, providing a private spot for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors.
The property is situated on a slope with eleven steps up to the front door, offering far-distant views over the town and creating a light, bright, and cheerful atmosphere. Nearby, there are local shops within walking distance and larger supermarkets a short drive away. The area boasts several beaches, including Meadfoot Beach and Oddicombe Beach in Babbacombe, accessible via a unique cliff railway. Visitors can also explore Kent's Cavern, Living Coasts Zoo, and Babbacombe Model Village for a variety of attractions.
For dining options, guests can enjoy carvery lunches at The Hare & Hounds and The Willow Tree, perfect for refueling after a day of adventure. Teignmouth, a seaside town about 20 minutes away by car, offers a free kid's playground, arcades, and a safe beach near the old harbor. With its convenient location on a bus route to the Torquay seafront, Fowey Cottage serves as an ideal base for exploring the English Riviera throughout the year.
