This beautiful property adds more than a touch of luxury to holidays in one of South Devon's prettiest coastal villages, and is the perfect place to enjoy a family getaway or relaxing breaks with friends.

With its own entrance at the back of the building and a bright and airy atmosphere throughout, The Penthouse offers a well-equipped, luxurious holiday home that has fantastic views over the Ley, village and beach from its open plan living area and kitchen. Tasteful furnishings, modern features, and plenty of space for all means you'll feel right at home from the moment you step inside, while its three gorgeous bedrooms, two bathrooms and a washroom provide ample space for six guests, and the perfect base for exploring the delights of South Devon.

At The Beach is situated in the village of Torcross, set within the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Steps away from the apartment are Slapton Ley Nature Reserve and bird sanctuary on one side and a three-mile shingle beach on the other side, which was used as a training ground for the US Army in the preparation for the D-Day in World War II.

The calm, safe waters are ideal for families. Positioned within easy reach of some of South Devon’s best beaches at Blackpool Sands, Hallsands and Thurlestone. The area is fantastic for coastal walks, bird watching and sight-seeing.

Nice apartment, nice location.
4.5/5

Lovely apartment, all the facilities you will need plus more! Very comfortable, overall we enjoyed our stay, A couple of negative points - Access is unusual, a lot of stairs using the front door from the entrance or a fairly steep hill and then stairs from the car park to the door. The water heater for the central heating is located in a cupboard in the master bedroom, for a light sleeper, like myself, the constant noise was a problem probably worse at this time of the year. It was a very cold few days! I have to point out that these negatives didn't spoil our stay!

Sehr schöne Wohnung an einem traumhaften Ort
4.7/5

Wir haben eine sehr schöne Woche mit sechs Personen in Torcross verbracht. Es ist fantastisch, den Strand direkt vor der Tür zu haben, den Pub nur wenige Meter weiter und tolle Wandermöglichkeiten in der Nähe. Die Küstenwege sind herrlich und oftmals sind auch Seehunde zu sehen. Die Wohnung würden wir jederzeit wieder nehmen, jedoch muss man wissen, dass der Weg zur Wohnung für Personen mit handicap oder zum Entladen und Beladen etwas beschwerlich ist, da es mehrere Treppen rauf und runter bis zur Wohnung sind. Der Ausblick ist toll, der nahegelegene Parkplatz eine gute Sache. In der Wohnung kann man sich richtig wohlfühlen. Die Aufteilung ist gut, die Geräte sind sehr modern, die Sitzgelegenheiten und die Betten gemütlich und die Ausstattung mehr als ausreichend. Es gibt genug Informationsmaterial zu den Geräten. Der Kontakt war nett und es war alles sehr unproblematisch. Wir können diese Wohnung sehr empfehlen und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Manuel aus Duisburg (Deutschland)

Generally very pleased but a couple of maintenance concerns
4.3/5

We found the accommodation very comfortable .However the hot water kettle tap was broken throughout the majority of the stay.The jacuzzi on the master bedroom emitted Green slime on first use , so unable to use it.The impression we had was that the outside sitting space was exclusive, however it was communal.Having said all of that it was compensated by a very responsive support team .

Gerald, 16 Jul 2023

Hello Gerald, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are glad you found the accommodation comfortable and the support team helpful. We did offer to come round and have a look at the jacuzzi bath however I believe you didn't want us to, this has now been fully serviced and we do apologise you encountered this problem. The hot water tap is not able to be fixed as of now so we do supply a kettle in the property and as for outside on our website we do state it is communal sorry if this was missed. We do hope to welcome you back in the future. Kind Regards, Luxury Coastal.

Hills and Beach - what else could you want
4.5/5

We rented the Penthouse for our family reunion. We wanted a place that was near the water and provided enough space for 4 adults. The Penthouse is a really cozy, comfortable apartment that is literally right on the beach and provides extensive walking routes to other beaches over green hills. The kitchen was fully equipped though I had wished that the frying pan had been less scratched.
