About this property

Lovely Victorian Villa in the English Riviera

Bring the whole family to this great place with lots of room for fun. This was our home until earlier this year so it has everything needed to have a lovely time. All we have taken is us and the clutter!
The space
The main living area is what we call the family room, it is like a kitchen, lounge and dining room all in one. There is a wood burning stove which can be lit if you want to feel extra cosy or want to roast marshmallows. The Sonos with Alexa provides the soundtrack.

French doors lead out to the veranda and the decking which has a large table for al fresco dining. The garden is large and enclosed. There is a kids swing, a large trampoline and a tree house.

The lounge has lovely sofas and a smart TV to entertain those who prefer digital.

There is a bathroom with shower in the bath downstairs right next to a bedroom with a king size bed, this used to be my home office.

Upstairs the first bedroom is a twin that is slightly child oriented. Subtle enough for adults too.

To the left is a family bathroom with large shower and roll top bath, there are two wash basins.

The two largest rooms are at the front of the house, on the left is the room we had and has a super king size bed and to the right you will need the force to help you with Darth Vader and many Storm Troopers as a feature wall. There are two singe beds in there but we could have easily put more in but didn’t want it to look like we were trying to cram people in.
Guest access
Hillside is a five minute walk to everything. Goodrington beach, Paignton sands and Paignton town. Next to Paignton sands is our Geopark that our kids love playing in. They also love the multiplex cinema that is there too. Torbay leisure centre which has a proper pool, gym plus squash courts. Splashdown is the largest outdoor waterpark in the UK!

Would return in a heartbeat!

We found Robins Victorian Villa through VRBO after deciding to get away for Christmas. We were worried at first. Trying to find a property for 4 adults, 3 children aged 3-6 and 2 dogs. We didn't think we'd find anywhere suitable within budget. This property came up and had it all. It is such a beautiful house. Spacious and had everything we needed. The garden kept the children entertained for ages with the swing, pirate ship and trampoline and play house. Under the stairs was a an amazing secret play area. The bedrooms were spacious and accommodating. A good size living room for us all to chill and do presents The kitchen!!!! What a space. We spent most of our time here. Singing. Dancing. Playing and when it came to the big feast.... everything we needed was there and we had all 7 of us sit around the table comfortably. Robin was very good a communication and was extremely helpful with any questions. He made us all feel very welcome and we can't thank him enough for making our Christmas simple and enjoyable. I'd recommend this property over and over again. And I'd 100% recommend Robin as a property manager. Thank you, Robin. 5 star stay

Stunning property

We stayed in Oct 2022 as 2 families comprising 4 adults, 3 children and 2 dogs. The property is gorgeous - we didn't want to leave... Robin and his partner have thought of everything, all the fixtures and fittings are quirky and high end - it feels like you are staying in a family house for the weekend. The house & garden is very much geared for families with a child gate on the stairs and plenty of toys / games / lego in the rooms (plus bonus kids hideaway under the stairs) - our kids had a ball! the garden is dog friendly with chicken wire round the perimeter, they had a great time trying to catch the local squirrels. The park & dog friendly beach nearby is fantastic.. we also took a short walk down to the sea front which was a 10 min stroll - had a fabulous dinner at the 'Harbour Light' pub which was highly recommended. Only thing i would warn about is the drive / driveway entrance - it is very narrow - bit of a squeeze in our Disco Sport. We hope we can make a return visit next year and enjoy some sun in your glorious garden! Thanks again!
