“The Palms Guest House strikes me as a particularly welcoming spot in Torquay. I appreciate its Edwardian character and the individual care the owners seem to give, setting it apart from more generic stays. It's a short walk to the town center and harbour, but the homely atmosphere makes it easy to unwind after a day exploring.”
