The beautiful South West Coast Path which stretches around the south coast of England. You can join this by walking five minutes down the road towards the Imperial Hotel. The walk from here to Meadfoot Beach is nice, and also from Ansteys Cove around to Babbacombe where you can stop at The Carey Arms for a nice drink with views over the sea.

The Elephant by Simon Hulstone. Regarded as one of Devon's best restaurants and Torquay's first restaurant to be awarded a Michelin star. Their seasonal tasting menu is something to behold. Just a 5 minute walk from the cottage too. Book in advance!

One of the best spots in the Bay to enjoy a meal or drink, with views over the water at Babbacombe bay. It's a nice walk from Ansteys Cove to here on the coast path. Look out for Sammy the seal!
