Spend your days with a restorative massage or bespoke spa treatment, a picnic down on the beach or take a table on the terrace for lunch. If you're lucky and book early you might bag the prized Captain’s Table. Stay with us and see for yourself why we are one of the best places to dine, relax and stay in Torbay.
