This is our second time staying at the Osborne Apartments with a family of 5. The grounds and apartments are beautiful, spacious and clean. As well as the outdoor swimming pool and tennis court, you can also use the Hotel facilities such as the gym and indoor pool. Meadfoot beach is just a minute walk across the road. There is also lots of parking spaces and we didn't have any issues finding a space. It's walking distance to town, about a 10-15 minutes. Walking back is up hill. In the evenings we drove the car down the hill and parked near or on the main road as parking is free after 6pm. We went to Oddicombe beach for 3 days. Its a must seen place if you're in Torquay. Its less than 10 minutes drive there, free parking around the Babbacombe Cliff Railway but definitely go earlier like 9am to get free parking. It's steep going down. We brought a heavy duty trolley to take all our equipment, paddle board, kayak, life jackets, cool box, deck chairs...We thoroughly enjoyed our stayed and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to staying at Torquay, couples or families.
