From the manager

St Anns is a detached cottage-style, three bedroom house of charming charater in the beautiful area of St Marychurch in Babbacombe/Torquay. The cottage is within easy walking distance of shops, bars, restaurants and beaches. Ideal choice for family holidays, as there are plenty of facilities and activities in the area for children, including Babbacombe Model Village, which is just around the corner.

Our spacious holiday cottage sleeps 6 in three bedrooms, (one double, one twin and one room with bunk beds). The house also boasts a private drive (parking available for 2 cars) and sun trap landscaped gardens. To the rear, the cottage has views over the Petit Tor Downs, Torquay Golf Course and Watcombe.

The closest beach is Oddicombe, a 14 year consecutive winner of the Blue Flag Award and designated Euro Beach. If you choose to take the Cliff Railway, Oddicombe is a 15 minute walk or if you prefer the path Oddicombe and adjoining Babbacombe are a 20 minute walk. Other beaches at circa 15 minutes are Watcombe and Whitsand.

    House rules

    Lead guest must be 25 years or older. Pets who shed fur are not allowed on beds. It is very difficult to clean the bedding if animal hair is left on it. It may be impossible to remove and new bedding has to be purchased. Then a deduction may be made from the security bond to cover it. No groups of all males or all females. The maximum occupancy is 5 adults and 1 child, as the upper bunk in the 3rd bedroom isn't really suitable for an adult. We do not allow guests to have bbqs on the premises.

    Response from the manager
    The property is advertised as having a bathroom with bath/shower and wash hand basin and the 2nd bathroom with a toilet. Sky has recently contacted us and has upgraded our wifi internet with a brand new wifi router. The guests following this stay have set it up and reported that it is working really well. I can't wait to try it out myself. The reason the rocking chair is without a cushion is that all the cushions in the house were removed due to COVID-19. This was a decision made for the safety of our guests. I dispute that the furniture is dirty - it is antique. Yes, it was unfortunate about the building work, but sadly that was outside of our control. I've checked with the cleaner and apparently the scaffolding is coming down now, so this will soon be no issue. It is true that the garden needs a bit of pruning. The plants and bushes grow fast in the Summer months. This will be done as soon as we get some free days. The house is very popular during the school summer holidays when bookings are back to back and the gardener doesn't like to disturb the privacy of our guests.
