The Sandpiper Guest House - Torquay

Peaceful Setting and Parking

The sandpiper guest house sits at the end of a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac, which keeps street noise away from guests. Free on-site parking is available directly at the front of the property. The location is a 10- to 15-minute downhill walk to Torre Abbey Sands Beach and the seafront.

Breakfast and Dining

Guests pre-order their breakfast the night before and receive additional tea, coffee, and toast during the meal. The Sandpiper Guest House also operates an honesty bar where guests can take beer, wine, spirits, snacks, and chocolates and leave payment in a dish.

Each room includes an en-suite shower room, a flat-screen TV, a seating area, and a tea/coffee tray with biscuits replenished daily. The family suite offers two separate rooms and a TV in each, plus extra storage space. Room 8, a top-floor deluxe king room, stays cool without air conditioning and provides a view of the back garden.
