Rutland Lodge - Five Bedroom House, Sleeps 10

A beautifully restored Victorian home set in the bustling village of Wellswood and perfectly located for exploring the vibrant coastal town of Torquay. This spacious retreat is the ideal space for a long-overdue reunion with friends or multigenerational family gatherings with a couple of four-pawed members in tow. Soak up the cultural and creative buzz of Cockington (3.5 miles) and saunter through the leafy formal gardens, before sinking in for a restorative soak in your Hydropool therapy spa, available from Easter until 31st October.
Why not attend one of the many annual events and festivals in the area, Torbay Air Show, Electric Bay festival, Paignton Festival, The Torbay Royal Regatta, Agatha Christie Festival, England's Seafood Feast, Devon County Show and the Bay of Lights
This property sympathetically blends traditional elegance with contemporary creature comforts. Picture intricate cornice detailing, airy neutral tones, and social spaces aplenty. Shrug off your outer layers at the entrance then unwind in the bright lounge with an impressive floor-to-ceiling bay window. In cooler months, warm chilly toes and paws in the heat of the crackling wood burner. Pour a tipple and potter in the bright farmhouse-style kitchen with wooden worktops or you can congregate in the dining space for pre-dinner drinks before venturing into the striking light-dappled conservatory for a celebratory feast. Feeling competitive? Challenge your teammates in the games room or scope out the pool table. When night falls, choose from five beautifully presented rooms with configurations to suit the whole family. Throw open the patio doors to discover the jewel of the property. Perch on the rattan furniture with a morning coffee, heat up the wood-fired pizza oven or relax with an evening dip in the hot tub.
Adventure-seekers, relaxers, and food lovers alike will delight in a visit to Torquay. Whether you are indulging in an al fresco cream tea at a waterfront cafe on the Torquay marina (1 mile), sauntering beneath floral archways and fragrant blooms in Tessier Gardens (1.5 miles), or scrambling down to the sandy crescent of sand at Babbacombe Beach (1.5 miles), there is plenty to keep the group entertained.
