6 The Manor House

Description from the manager

The Manor House is an imposing 19th Century Gothic Mansion House set in a peaceful location near the sea front in Torquay. Built in 1867 for the world famous engineer William Froude, pioneer of powered flotation and a major influence in ship design, the mansion has a commanding position in Cockington.

6 Mews Cottage, The Manor House is a beautiful 2 storey, 2 bedroom cottage with a raised terrace area allowing partial views across Torquay harbour and wider views across the bay to Berry Head. The property has patio furniture, a barbeque and access to the on-site facilities including an indoor pool (for which towels are supplied), gym, sa...una, gardens and games room. On arrival, you will also find a welcome bottle of wine in the property.

A travel cot, high chair and changing mat are provided for younger guests (please note that cot linen is not provided).

Local shops and a lovely village pub, The Chelston Manor, which offers food both at lunchtimes and evenings and has a childrens room, are just a 5 minute walk away while the sea front and beach are a 5-10 minute walk away. From the sea front you can also catch the bus into Torquay town centre and harbour or explore the rest or Torbay. If you feel like a walk then Torquay town centre is just a 20 minutes walk away as is Cockington village and the country park.

  Left on 05/25/2013 for a stay in May 2013
  
  

  I was a bit apprehensive about a two-level appartment for my 80+ parent, but the super fast heating and separate bathrooms repaided the risk.
  Stunning views from the communal terrace.
  Other residents very friendly and receptive to sharing a gin and tonic on the patio.
  Access to a gym and private indoor poorl and sauna a real plus.
  Sue, the manager/owner very friendly and welcoming although we did not meet until the day of our departure.
  Appartment very clean and well apponted with dishwasher and washing machine. Also table tennis, baord games and Dvd's (bring some of your own if you have them).
