Bedroom area: Double (4ft 6in) Bed
Separate Toilet.. Electric central heating, electricity, bed linen and towels included. Welcome pack. Front garden with sitting-out area. Hot tub for 6 (private). On road parking. No smoking.. The Lookout Pod is located in a well regarded residential area of Torquay. Accessible via a gate from the adjoining road, guests after walking up the stone steps find themselves in the garden area. This elevated area boasts a 6 person hot tub, distant sea views and seating. There is also a cold water outdoor shower for hosing off any sandy pups or wetsuits, and a washing line, along with outside electric sockets if needed. The structure consists of a door leading into the bedroom and general living space, with double bed, kettle and toaster. (Please note these are the only cooking facilities). From another door accessed to the side of the pod there is an outside toilet. The pod, although small and with limited facilities, offers guests an up-market like camping experience yet in a much more desirable location if being close to Torquay town, beach and amenities is what you are looking for.
There is so much to see and do in the local area, including visiting the many beautiful beaches, greens and coastal paths. Around Torquay’s marina there is an abundance of quality restaurants, bars and pubs as well as amusements and a theatre. Torquay’s surrounding areas such as Brixham, Dartmouth and the city of Exeter, all make for great days out, as do many of the towns within the South Hams. Sit back and relax in the hot tub while enjoying a late night drink after a long day exploring all the English Riviera has to offer!
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom.
