What to Do in Torquay?

When it comes to keeping yourself busy in Torquay, you’ll have no trouble on an Alfa Holiday. Take a look at our Torquay coach holiday itineraries to get a taste for what our escapes offer. We also make sure that guests have the time to make their own plans during free time in Torquay, so here are some ideas to explore:

 

  1. Relax on the beach: Torquay offers a coast full of beaches to explore. So, if you’re watching to sit in the sun with an ice cream and listen to the ambient sounds of the waves hitting the sand and the seagulls squawking, take your pick from Abbey Sands, Oddicombe Beach, Medfoot Beach, and more.

  2. Catch a show: Torquay has a thriving theatre scene, featuring musicals, comedies, and more. Book yourself a ticket at the Princess Theatre or join us on a theatre coach trip to Torquay.

  3. Join the Fawlty Towers walking tour: Fans of theatrics and comedy will also probably know Torquay as the home of Fawlty Towers. Fans can join a guided walking tour to learn more about the town that inspired the sitcom, packed with laughs along the way.

  4. Take a boat trip: Who said coach trips can’t include boats? Adventure across the English Riviera’s famous coastline on board a local boat and enjoy the best views of Torquay from the water.

  5. Babbacombe Model Village and Gardens: One of the town’s most popular attractions, this quirky destination offers guests four acres of model scenes to explore. With vibrant greenery and must see miniatures, this spot is one of the most unique gardens in Devon.

Where to Stay in Torquay?

Don’t worry, as much as we’re fans of Fawlty Towers, we’d never make our guests suffer the wrath of Basil Fawlty. Instead, Alfa Holiday guests can make themselves at home at the Metropole Hotel Torquay. A short walk from the beach, this hotel is in a prime location.

 

The welcoming staff at the Metropole do everything they can to create an environment that breathes relaxation. Find cosy beds, tea and coffee making facilities, a flat screen TV, a radio, a hairdryer, and an en suite, each in your very own room.

Also with a restaurant, lounge, bar, dancefloor, an outdoor seating area, and entertainment, you’ll have everything you need to get comfortable at the Metropole.

Guests can also stay at our Alfa Hotel in Torquay, the Regina, conveniently located on the harbour, close to all the shops and amenities this fantastic resort offers. 

 

Providing accessible holidays in Devon is a priority for us. On the first day of your holiday, you’ll be dropped off at the front door of your hotel so that you can settle and relax before getting your getaway started.

When is the Best Time to Visit Torquay?

Offering endless opportunities for adventure, breathtaking natural landscapes, and limitless attractions, there’s never a wrong time to visit Torquay. Visit during the spring and summer months to capitalise on the town’s Mediterranean appeal and sandy beaches. 

 

Or join Alfa Holidays on a Christmas market coach holiday to immerse yourself in unique festive experiences, including ‘Carols in the Cave’ and the Exeter Christmas markets. The sun may not be shining as much, but our itineraries are always jolly and bright at Alfa Holidays!
