Location
The Priory is set in the Wellswood which is sought after for its period ambiance and fine Victorian architecture. It is only a short distance from the village style community of Wellswood where there is a parish church, pub, shops, salons, convenience stores, delicatessen, French patisserie, post office, pharmacy, restaurant and cafes. This location is within easy reach of the harbourside and facilities of the town with local buses available nearby. The beaches at Meadfoot and Anstey’s Cove with their waterside
cafes are also within easy reach.
Torquay is synonymous with the English Riviera on Devon’s south coast and has been a popular destination for tourism since the Victorian era. The nostalgic elements of this bygone age are well preserved and the famous pier and classic architecture now blends seamlessly with new contemporary architecture, stylish bars, new hotels, restaurants and the international marina. The working harbour, sandy beaches, iconic palm trees and beach huts provide a wonderfully timeless element.
