Owner profile


About the owner
I am married with 3 daughters and a step son. My husband was born in Torquay but I moved to Torquay from Northamptonshire 24 years ago. My husband and I started off with Fairdale as a holiday let then added two further houses, as we enjoy hearing that people have enjoyed their holidays, and try to make all our properties a real home from home. We can offer you advice and recommend local attractions to you especially child related activities having 4 children ourselves!

Year purchased: 2010

Why the owner chose a home in this location
We purchased this property to add another holiday let to our business. We liked the fact that the property was part of an old school house and retained some of its original features and also its location close to all of Torquay's amenities.
