With Farm Stay’s online search facility it’s easy to locate the perfect self catering property to serve as a base for exploring the many delights of Torquay on the sunny English Riviera.


A self catering short break or longer holiday gives families and couples a greater amount of freedom and privacy than a hotel can offer. Not only will you be able to come and go as you wish, but you can also relax in the knowledge that every Farm Stay property is regularly inspected and graded by the AA or Visit England.

Ideal for traditional bucket and spade holidays, Torquay boasts a natural harbour, fishing port and superb family beaches. Take in the sea air as you stroll leisurely along the pier and promenade, or take to the water on a boat trip or chartered cruise. Maybe even try your hand at a spot of sailing or water sports, such as windsurfing and water-skiing.


Torquay is well known as the birthplace and home of Agatha Christie, but the town and surrounding area offer many other attractions including Babbacombe Model Village, Kents Cavern, The Living Coast and Paignton Zoo. And the stunning countryside of the Dartmoor National Park is only a 20-minute drive away.

After a day’s sightseeing and exploring, you’ll be in need of refreshments but one of the many advantages of a Farm Stay self catering holiday is that you don’t have to cook if you don’t want to. If you’d rather eat out, you’ll find plenty of options in Torquay.
