About this property

Stunning, newly refitted apartment is a quiet location perfect for exploring all that The English Ri

The Falstone Apartment is situated in the St Marychurch area of Torquay and is ideal for those looking for a slightly quieter break on The English Riviera. It is situated in a tree lined avenue and is just a five minute stroll to Fore Street which is the very heart of St Marychurch. Here you will find an unusually bustling high street with lots of independent traders and cafes. Close by are two of The English Riviera's key visitor attractions - Babbacombe Model Village and Bygones. A short walk beyond these is the Babbacombe Downs area with spectacular clifftop views as well as a wide range of evening dining venues and the famous Babbacombe Cliff Railway and Babbacombe Theatre.

The Falstone Apartment itself is a fully refitted two bedroom apartment on the first floor of a period building. The apartment has an open plan living space with a superb well equipped modern kitchen as well as a separate sitting area with sofas and a large SMART TV.

The main bedroom has a luxury king sized bed (UK size 5 foot width) as well as an ensuite shower room plus plenty of storage. This bedroom has a bay window as well as an additional sde window so it is gloriously light and bright. Roman blinds means that at night any light can be completely blocked out.

The second bedroom has a super king bed (UK size 6 foot width) and this can be split into two to make two single beds. This spacious room also has plenty of storage. There is also a family bathroom with bath and shower over.

Outside, the apartment has its own allocated parking space off road and there is an allocated part of the rear garden for the sole use of apartment guests.

Superb apartment

Beautiful apartment and spotlessly clean. Would love to return. St. Marychurch independent shops are a real find, proper greengrocer and fishmonger.

Superb accommodation

The apartment is so light and spacious, spotlessly clean and provides everything you need to be completely at home. Plenty of storage space in both bedrooms. A very quiet location. Excellent communication with the property manager. Would happily recommend and we look forward to our return visits.

Excellent stay at the Falstone apartment.

Absolutely 5 star plus accommodation. Home from home. Beautiful building. The host was very accommodating and with great communication if required. Could not fault the location. Literally 2 mins walk into St Marychurch high street. The apartment was faultless, everything has been thought of. Fantastic quality furnishings.

Great Stay

The holiday booked same day as arrival and our hosts pulled out all the stops to accommodate us. Excellent communication. Apartment very comfortable with everything you would need for a stress free self catering holiday. Couldn't fault anything, very clean and spacious with tasteful decor - very enjoyable stay. Bonus of car parking onsite and location a short walk to St Marychurch facilities and Babbacombe Bay.

8/10 Good

Lovely apartment, but dreadful location.

The apartment was excellent and well equipped, but the location was not good. Everything seemed to close early in the evenings and the places that were open stopped serving food really early. Access to the beach wasn't easy and that wasn't made clear when the booking was made. There were no decent shops or restaurants close by. The residents in the apartments kept going through our rubbish to ensure we were putting things in the correct bins and then telling us about it, which was a bit of a nuisance. There needs to be fans in the apartment, as it was so hot. I had to buy one and then had to leave it there, as I couldn't carry it home on the train. Also, the apartment needs black-out blinds, the sun came up really early and the rooms were then so light and extremely hot.

10 day visit with teens

This trip was to re-live the childhood holidays that I had with my parents in the 60s/70s. We are grandparents of two teens and brought them along. Booking and arrival process was smooth and efficient. The apartment is upstairs with views to the front. It's exactly as in the pictures and new, clean and bright. The beds are comfortable, the ensuite is small but does the job - maybe dfficult to access to someone on the larger side. Would have liked a TV in the main bedroom but we were very lucky with the weather so didn't really need it. Lounge sofas very comfortable and there's everything in the kitchen you need. It's a 10-15 min walk to Babbacombe sea front and a 5 min drive to Torquay harbour. Lots of cafes nearby but they do close early - supermarkets nearby are open late. The cliff railway to Oddicombe beach still wasn't working but we did have the chance to go down there for an afternoon as a mini bus was provided by the cafe owners. We visited Oddicombe beach, Ansteys Cove, Meadfoot beach and Torquay beach and Harbour. Maidencombe beach was a highlight along with the cafe and pub lunch (don't drive down if you're nervous!). The pub brought back great memories - The outside area is much bigger but the view is just as beautiful. Cockington village was a must for me but did miss the horses. Shop keepers are so friendly and filled in some gaps in my memory. Thank you. Overall a wonderful stay.

Superb apartment in St Marychurch

Close enough to Babbacombe and Torquay this is a superb apartment, which tastefully furnished with excellent quality equipment and fittings . Located in a quiet area, 5 minutes from shops is a brilliant base for a holiday in the Torbay area and Torbay has everything you need. Would definitely recommend to anyone and would book again.

Luxury apartment stay

We had a fabulous stay at the Falstone Apartment. We walked in and were surprised at how nice it was and the photos didn't lie. Our bedroom was gorgeous and very roomy. The bed was comfy and we both slept very well. The kitchen was well equipped and the whole apartment was liight and airy. The location is in a very quiet road that iis a dead end with a pub on the corner and then you are on the high street. The shops are great and we enjoyed getting everything to eat without having to get in the car. We can reccommend the walk to the quaint cliff railway and taking it down to the beach and back up again. We fell in love with St.Marychurch and the apartment and hope to go back again soon.
