This delightful B&B is most definitely the place to stay to enjoy a great location and all the comforts of home. Kim and Trevor are the perfect hosts, with their warmest of greetings on arrival and their constant friendliness throughout our stay. We enjoyed being able to walk to the beach through the beautiful grounds surrounding Torre Abbey and found a good variety of places to eat in the evenings. We recommend that you will not be disappointed and have already booked our stay for next year.
