WHAT WE LOVE...

Situated in the upmarket Meadfoot area of Torquay, the Osborne Hotel is a striking whitewashed Georgian building at the centre of an elegant Grade II-listed Regency crescent. Perfectly positioned on the seafront, boasting panoramic views of the English Riviera, it's one of the most luxurious hotels in Torbay. Relax in stylish boutique accommodation that rivals many of the more generic seaside offerings - this a coastal retreat with a difference, home to super-contemporary rooms, manicured gardens and blue sea views. Seasonal West Country fare in the restaurant makes for a memorable stay, ideal for families and couples looking for a comfy, modern base to explore the south Devon coast and beyond.

Style & Character

Suited to those after a slightly more lavish seaside escape than the usual, in a peaceful setting just a stone's throw from the hub of Torquay. The beautiful scenery won us over entirely - with palm-fringed lawns that stretch down to the glistening blue seas at Meadfoot beach.

Service & Facilities

A game of tennis, followed by Pimm's on the terrace with the blue sea in the background, is an afternoon well spent!
