Bosuns Cottage in Torquay is highly praised for its prime location, cleanliness, and comfort. Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities, the thoughtful touches like milk and biscuits, and the property's charm and character. The proximity to the harbour, town, and beaches, as well as the inclusion of a parking permit, are frequently mentioned as major advantages. While some guests noted the steep stairs and the single toilet as minor concerns, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

A delightful character property close to Torquay's Marina, harbour, beach and restaurants yet tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the town.
Bosuns Cottage is a super character fisherman's cottage situated in the heart of Torquay and offers a fantastic location being only a very short easy stroll to the harbour side, restaurants, marina, beach and town centre shops. Whilst being close to the centre of the town the cottage also benefits from a very pleasant tucked away location in a historic area of the town and offer guests privacy from the main hustle and bustle. The cottage is also close to the South West Coastal Path to explore the beautiful coastlines and scenery.
The owners have thoughtfully retained many of the original traditional features such as the beams and exposed stone walls so there is a great feeling of character within the property. The owners supply one car parking permit that allows guests the use of the local authority car parks in the area.
