A good sized apartment, well equipped and in a stunning location. It is an old building so be prepared for creaky floors and wifi can be a bit ropey - but our 2 teenagers coped! Staff are lovely, views amazing and you're right on the doorstep of Meadfoot Beach and coastal walks plus walking distance of Torquay if you don't mind a hill. We keep coming back!

Flat 61 Osborne Apartments
We stayed in apartment 61. The interior was amazing. 3 bathrooms for the three of us in my party! The bedrooms are in the basement, the sitting room and kitchen are on the ground floor. The view is good, but restricted as the windows are on the same floor as the road. It’s an amazing property though ❤️

Thoroughly recommend!
This was our third stay here. It never fails to impress. The apartments are always spotless and well equipped . We've had a different room each time, and all are spot on for a comfy weekend. The only downside is the noisy heating system with water running through the radiator at 6 am like we were in a tropical storm!

Luxury and Opulence at a Bargain Price
The staff were attentive and helpful but never pushy. The apartments are part of a massive building which obviously has considerable history. It has been tastefully and thoughtfully modernised, whilst retaining the character and grand nature of the original building. The facilities, including indoor and outdoor pools, fitness suite, restaurant, putting green, outside bar, etc have all remained open during the pandemic and whilst safety has been taken very seriously and given the appropriate priority, it is as unobtrusive as it can be and detracts remarkably little. Overall it was simply terrific value and I can’t readily imagine anything that might improve it.

Fantastic apartment, very clean, very good condition and highly recommended. The only thing that lets it down is the reception is only open from 09:00 to 18:00 which is inconvenient if you want to leave early or check in late. The gym although good, opens at 07:30 which is useless if like me you like to work out first thing. But that’s the only downside.

disappointed
Third time we have stayed here. Previously booked sea view rooms and both we’re comfortable and views were very good. Apartments were spacious. Was very disappointed that this most recent stay what was described as Sea view room was more sea glimpse through bushes and trees! And that apartment was more cramped than previous apartments as well as being noisy, this included having to turn tv up to drown out sounds from party in the hotel.

Fantastic apartments with incredible view. Great facilities and offer household items for free which can be unusual for a self catering apartment. Good location not far from Torquay. Not very child friendly but for us with a newborn was fine.
