Overview

Around 11 miles from Dartmouth on South Devon's coast, lies the small village of Torcross. With its clear waters, three miles of shingle and a backdrop of countryside, it’s the ideal setting for a quiet coastal retreat and one that understandably sees visitors returning to it year after year.

Set a few metres back from the sea front, this former coach building has been renovated to a high standard and incorporates original features that nod to its humble past. Combined with cool, contemporary touches as well as luxury fittings and furnishings, the mixing of old and new, historic and contemporary; creates a beautiful space to relax in and enjoy.

Accommodating four guests, this home has two spacious bedrooms with the master bedroom being located on the ground floor. Elegantly furnished with a king size bed, the room has adjustable lighting as well as an inviting fabric covered armchair and accompanying footstool; perfect for a quiet read or catching up on a crossword. A large window is set back into the thick stone wall inviting plenty of sunlight in, while a contemporary en-suite shower room adds further luxuriousness. Upstairs, the second bedroom has a bright and airy atmosphere. Furnished with two single beds and a crisp, neutral palette, it’s a welcoming place that entices long morning lie ins or lazy breakfasts in bed. On this floor you’ll also find a family bathroom as well as a beautiful, open plan designed living / dining area and kitchen. Exposed roof timbers, parquet flooring and recessed windows give it tons of character, with plenty of sumptuous seating and a wall mounted flatscreen television making it just right for a night in or to simply chill out and unwind.

Get creative in the modern and amply equipped kitchen which is fully fitted with a range of appliances and utensils that make culinary wizardry a cinch; then settle in for an evening around the super chic dining table and enjoy a boardgame, quiet drink or feast!

*Please note that this property is separate from the main At The Beach Apartment complex and is found off the visitor car park

Lovely Apartment, Bonus secure parking only gripe could do with a good spring clean cobwebs and dust everywhere but time allowed for change overs to be expected. Hope new owners when sold still let it.

An Excellent Apartment by the Sea
5/5

The Barn 22 At the Beach is a lovely apartment right on the sea front at Torcross with parking in a garage and suitable for four people, although we were only a couple. The apartment is extremely comfortable: king-sezed double bed with en suite featuring a walk in shower. There is also another bathroom/shower room upstairs so if you're in the lounge area you don't have to go downstairs! Nice kitchen area and seating. Everything we could want for a long weekend break. Apartment was very well located as it's an easy walk along the sea front to the excellent Star Bay Inn (fish and chips to die for!), Slapton Ley Nature Reserve and two other cafes. Bus stop almost outside with an hourly service to Dartmouth or Kingsbridge: having an OAP bus pass, there was no need to take the car!! Just a couple of points. Measure your car before you book. Our Toyota Yaris easily fitted in, but anything much bigger and the driver would have difficulty getting out once in the garage. And with the apartments all taken, you have to use the garage. Perhaps a few more mugs and plates: fine for a couple, although even we used all the mugs in one day, and there is a dishwasher, but a few more would mean less washing up if there were four staying. And a few instruction manuals on the dishwasher/microwave/oven/hob for visitors who are not technically minded to work it out for themselves. No DVD player. TV has Netflix and Amazon Prime, but we don't subscribe so brought some favourite DVDs in case the weather was bad in March which obviously we could have used if bad weather had meant we couldn't go out. But overall an excellent choice for self-catering and for these days, reasonably priced and good value given the quality of the fixtures and fittings.

Short break away once kids have returned to school
4.7/5

Didn't disappoint had a. Lovely stay as always, only.downside had to inform Luxury Coastal that there was no fob for garage door as didn't want to get charged for it which they sorted but wasn't very easy climbing over car bonnet after closing door.

Stephen, 20 Sep 2024

Hi Stephen, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and thank you for your feedback! Were glad to hear that you had a lovely stay as always. We apologize for the inconvenience with the garage door fob and appreciate you informing Luxury Coastal about it. Were happy they were able to sort it out, though we understand it wasnt ideal having to climb over the car bonnet. Well look into this to ensure a smoother experience for future guests. We hope to welcome you back again soon! Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team

Beautiful, unspoiled area to stay in, good transport links
4.3/5

We found the property to be quite comfortable, and being fortunate to experience some warmer weather during our stay appreciated the main bedroom being downstairs, and thus cooler than upstairs which became quite warm at times. We made use of the bus service around the corner to get to other towns, since we didn't fancy tackling the tiny lanes on a daily basis! We spent time down at the nature reserve, spotting an unusual visitor to the area, a Eurasian widgeon, which seemed to have damage to its flight feathers. Crossing over the road, we could walk by the beach. We enjoyed great fish and chips at the Start Bay Inn, a lovely breakfast at the Boathouse, delicious cake and coffee at the Billy Can, and Sunday lunch at the Cricket Inn in nearby Beesands. The local farm shop was handy for food, and there are craft stalls there too. We appreciate a quiet area to stay in, and somewhere to enjoy a meal and a drink in walkable distance, and this lovely property gave us just that. Rooms were an excellent size, and the shower was fabulous. It was quite novel to have a garage to park in! Thank you for a very comfortable stay.

Guest, 29 Jun 2024

Hi, Thank you for your lovely review! Were delighted to hear that you found the property comfortable and enjoyed the cooler main bedroom during the warmer weather. Its great that you made use of the convenient bus service and had the chance to explore the nature reserve and nearby beach. Were glad you enjoyed the local dining options and found the farm shop handy. Its wonderful to know that the property provided a quiet and relaxing stay with everything you needed within walking distance. Were pleased that the rooms and shower met your expectations and that you appreciated the garage. Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and we hope to welcome you back for another comfortable stay in the future! Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team

Mon to Fri short break
4/5

Barn is excellent close to beach and has parking a bonus (only problem no fob for garage door so had to climb over car bonnet so as to get out after using control inside) everything thing you need to use in kitchen etc. Only really bad thing was South Western Water working in main carpark from 6pm till 7am on one night horrendous so no sleep at all would have been nice to have been better informed as to what would have been going on instead of after our arrival as may have not bothered going

Stephen, 24 May 2024

Hi Stephen, Thank you for sharing your experience at the Barn! It is great to hear that the Barn is close to the beach and offers parking as a bonus. Proximity to the beach is always a plus. Thank you for passing over the feedback regarding the fob for the garage door and we apologise you needed to climb over your car bonnet. Having everything you need in the kitchen is essential for a comfortable stay. The disruption caused by South Western Water working in the main car park from 6 pm till 7 am must have been quite challenging, we did inform you when we were made aware of this and unfortunately it is something that is out of our control. We do apologise you could not sleep, a night without sleep can be tough, especially when youre expecting a peaceful stay. We hope to welcome you back in the future to enjoy a more relaxing stay. Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team

Lovely property ideal for what we needed everything you need when away only couple of niggles that Adam at CC sorted straight away particularly cleaning the widows out side and fixing TV after power cut maybe a few more instructions would be helpful.

Was an excellent base to stay and explore south Devon. The home was well furnished and had excellent facilities. It definitely made us feel at home but on holiday at the same time. We would definitely stay again.
