Our Area
St Marychurch is one of Torquay’s most desirable districts, with its bustling ‘village’ ambience where a host of shops, cafes and restaurants can be found. The famous Model Village and the stunning Babbacombe Downs with funicular railway taking passengers to and from the shingle beaches of Oddicombe and Babbacombe are also close at hand.
Torquay is nestled on the warm South Devon coast being one of three towns along with Paignton and Brixham which form the natural east facing harbour of Torbay, sheltered from the English Channel. Torbay's wide selection of stunning beaches, picturesque coastline, mild climate and recreational facilities reinforce why it has rightfully earned the renowned nickname of the English Riviera.
Torquay Is Well Connected
