Kents Cottage is a traditional cottage located in the seaside town of Torquay, Devon. Perfect for families and friends seeking a base close to the coast and Dartmoor National Park, boasting partial ground-floor living, enclosed gardens and beach proximity. Arriving in Torquay, you can park outside Kents Cottage and pause to take in the charm of this traditional retreat, set within easy reach of the town’s amenities.
From the outside, the cottage presents a welcoming first impression. Step inside and you are welcomed straight into the sitting room, where warm wooden flooring runs underfoot and sets the tone for relaxed evenings indoors. An L-shaped corner sofa and armchair invite you to settle in, perhaps switching on the electric effect fire as dusk falls, while the Smart TV provides easy entertainment after a day spent exploring the coast or moorland.
The space is arranged for shared time together, whether that is chatting over a cup of tea or stretching out with a book from the selection provided. From the sitting room, walk across the wooden floor into the kitchen and dining area, a bright and sociable space designed for gathering. Stylish fixtures and carefully chosen artwork add character to the room, while the dining table offers a natural place to linger over breakfast or bring everyone together for an evening meal.
Cooking feels effortless here, with everything laid out to support slow mornings, busy afternoons and unhurried dinners. A tucked-away laundry cupboard adds everyday practicality without interrupting the flow of the room. Just beyond the kitchen lies one of the cottage’s most flexible spaces. The ground-floor bedroom is accessed from the kitchen and features wooden flooring, a pink sofa bed and its own Smart TV, allowing it to double as a second sitting area if desired.
A selection of books encourages quiet moments, while the en-suite walk-in shower room adds independence and ease. Bifold doors open directly from this room into the garden, making it a wonderful spot to start the day with fresh air or wind down in the evening with the doors drawn back. Outside, the enclosed rear garden is thoughtfully arranged, with a lawned area set neatly at its centre and a tidy patio bordering it.
This layout creates a space that feels both open and secure, ideal for children playing, dogs stretching their legs or guests enjoying a drink outdoors. Back inside, carpeted stairs rise from the sitting room to the first floor, where the remaining bedrooms continue the cottage’s calm and welcoming feel.
Both the double and twin bedrooms are bright and tranquil, with soft carpet underfoot and an atmosphere designed for rest at the end of the day. The family bathroom sits nearby, fitted with a P-shaped bath and shower over, offering flexibility for long soaks or refreshing starts to the morning. A shop and pub are just a short walk away, making it easy to pick up essentials or head out for a meal, while the beach is close enough for spontaneous seaside strolls and afternoons by the water.
