Dog-friendly holiday homes

Dog Friendly Holiday Homes in Torquay

Torquay is the principal resort of the English Riviera, its villas and terraced gardens rising above Tor Bay in a sweep of palm-fringed seafront. The harbour and marina sit at its heart, a busy haven of yachts and waterfront cafes, while the coast curves north through Meadfoot to the wooded headlands, Anstey's Cove, Babbacombe and the cliffs above Oddicombe. Kents Cavern, one of Britain's most important Stone Age cave systems, opens into the hillside behind the town, and the South West Coast Path threads the whole shoreline with miles of cliff and cove walking. Accommodation in and around Torquay ranges from apartments near the harbour to cottages in the surrounding valleys, with a broad choice of dog friendly holiday homes. Many beaches welcome dogs, with seasonal restrictions through the summer and year-round access on others such as Anstey's Cove and Babbacombe, so a quick check before you set off pays off. Dog-welcoming pubs and cafes line the harbour, and the sheltered coves and headlands give good walking in every season. Torquay makes a lively, warm base for exploring Tor Bay with your dog.
