About this place

Gemütliches Familienhaus am Meer

type of building: terraced house. size of property: 125m². year of construction: 1975.Ocean Nest is a spacious, well-located holiday home in central Torquay, just a short walk from the main beaches, harbour, and town centre. Ideal for families, small groups, and dog owners, it offers a practical and comfortable base for exploring South Devon. Several dog-friendly beaches and parks, including Cockington Country Park, are within walking distance, making it especially convenient for guests travelling with pets.

Spread over three floors, the house accommodates up to seven people across three bedrooms:

The master bedroom features a king-size double bed.

A second bedroom has a queen-size double bed, with the option to add a single bed if required.

A third bedroom offers two or three single beds, depending on guest needs.

There is one fully refurbished master bathroom with a luxurious walk-in rainfall shower, high-end fittings, and a hygienic handheld douche. There is also a separate guest WC which includes a washbasin, toilet and a second douche next to the third bedroom.

The open-plan living and dining area is designed for easy family living—perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach or enjoying a shared meal. High-speed fibre broadband is available throughout the house for leisure or work.

The kitchen is fully equipped with an induction hob, dishwasher, espresso pot, capsule coffee machine, and a wide range of cookware. A washing machine is also available for guest use.

The private, fully walled garden offers a peaceful outdoor space for dining, relaxing, or letting dogs roam safely. Up to three well-behaved dogs are welcome.

Two large off-road parking spaces are provided directly in front of the property—an especially valuable feature in this popular coastal town.

Ocean Nest is within easy walking distance of all the main local attractions, including the main beaches (Torre Abbey Sands, Corbyn Head, Beacon Cove, and Livermead), the marina, the Princess Theatre, Merlin Central Cinema, Torre Abbey Gardens and Museum, and Cockington Country Park. The vibrant harbour area, with its restaurants, cafés, and evening entertainment, is just a 10-minute walk away.

Please note: the house includes stairs and is arranged over three levels, which may not be suitable for guests with reduced mobility.

Whether you’re planning family beach days, coastal walks, or evenings around the lively harbour, Ocean Nest offers a comfortable and centrally located home away from home right in the heart of Torquay.
