The Mount Edgcombe, Torquay - Hotel Description
With a Silver Award from the Green Tourism Business Scheme, this quality, refurbished accommodation offers freshly cooked breakfasts, evening meals, free car parking and a convenient location.
The Mount Edgcombe is a small, privately run establishment that prides itself on service and attention. There is a fully licensed bar, a comfortable guest lounge and an excellent choice of optional evening meals.
Mount Edgcombe is located on a level, tree-lined avenue. The train station and the English Riviera Centre are just a few minutes' walk away, and a 15-minute walk will take you to Castle Circus - the heart of Torquay's shopping area. The nearby promenade provides a lovely stroll along the water's edge towards the harbour.
Please note that Mount Edgcombe is entirely non-smoking and does not accept group bookings.
Mount Edgcombe, originally a smart Victorian 'gentleman's residence', has retained much of its original charm, but at the same time provides guests with modern-day comforts. It has a quiet location yet is within easy walking distance of the seafront and many major attractions.

The Mount Edgcombe, Torquay - Area Information
Mount Edgcombe is ideally situated, away from the hustle and bustle of the town centre but within easy walking distance of the sea front, the Princess Theatre and other amenities. We can highly recommend our local restaurant, which is just 5 minutes walk down the road. Booking is sometimes advisable; let us do it for you. The Riviera Centre with its conference facilities, sporting activities and swimming pool and the recently restored Torre Abbey are both also just 5 minutes’ walk away. The famous hamlet of Cockington is close by - a few minutes by car. But why not walk the lovely footpath from the seafront through the water meadows - a mile or so but well worth the effort. You could take a horse and carriage ride around the fabulous grounds while you're there. For a more challenging walk, in Torbay a 22-mile (35 km) thread of the South West Coastal Path (recently voted the country's favourite long distance walk) binds together areas of great beauty and wildlife importance such as Maidencombe, Hope's Nose, Saltern Cove and the Nature Reserve of Berry Head. Other fascinating places to visit in the area are Kents Cavern (2 miles/3.2 km) Paignton Zoo (4 miles/6.5 km) and the home of Agatha Christie - Greenway, on the banks of the river Dart (6 miles/10 km).
