There are few things better than renting a Torbay cottage for a week. We work with some of the best cottage operators and agencies in the UK and so if we don't have a suitable property, you may find it doesn't exist. Choosing the right Torbay accommodation is sometimes complicated when there are so many factors. There's no doubt that being in the right town or village is a big factor, but the number of beds you need is more so. Before you book, be clear on how many people need separate beds as if you're travelling with friends, they may not be up for sharing double beds!
Self-catering can make a cottage holiday in Torbay much more flexible, allowing you to eat whatever you want (or can cook). Now that doesn't mean you need to cook everything because there are plenty of places to eat out in Torbay Devon. If you're like the majority of people you are probably assuming you will travel to Torbay by car. But we'd suggest that taking the car can add to the stress levels and you can arrive exhausted from a long drive. Trains, buses and coaches are a much more carbon friendly solution since the fuel is shared by so many more people.

Devon
Devon is sandwiched between the two great counties of Somerset and Cornwall, and for many people it is the best of the three - you do not need Cornish pasties and Somerset cider when you can feast on Devon cream teas. The source of the name Devon comes from Dumnonia, the home of a tribe of Celts who were around when the Romans invade Britain.
Devon is deceptively large, in fact it is the fourth largest county in England but has a population of just over a million with the main city being Exeter, the home of one of the UKs best universities as well as the stunning Gothic cathedral that you can visit for religious or tourist purposes. The other significant city is Plymouth which has been a navy port for centuries. Devon has a number of fantastic stately homes including Arlington Court, Buckland Abbey, Castle Drogo, Killerton House, Powderham ... (more)
