“The Westgate strikes me as a particularly well-run Victorian villa; the kind of place where the hosts remember your name and the breakfast features local farm eggs. What sets it apart, in my view, is its proximity to both the beach and the attractions of the English Riviera. It's a smart choice for a Torquay getaway.”
