Local Area

Torquay is a popular holiday destination for Victorians, known for its picturesque beaches with wide grassy foreshores and large shady trees lining the coast. Scenic walking tracks extend throughout the town's foreshore, offering breathtaking views from Yellow Bluff and Point Danger, where an Anzac Memorial overlooks the ocean from atop the headland.

The main commercial center of Torquay spans Pearl Street and Gilbert Street, merging seamlessly with the coastal boulevard of The Esplanade. Additional shops, cafes, restaurants, and the town's historic hotel can be found on Bell Street, opposite a large camping and caravan ground near Point Danger.

This property worked well for us. Short drive to central Torquay and great walking tracks nearby. Short walk to beach and playground on tracks.

Great house with a couple minor complaints
Loved the layout of the house - the large second floor open kitchen-dining-living area that spills out onto the balcony suited our large group of friends perfectly. A couple minor complaints: - We would rather pay a small amount extra to have wifi. We didn't realise that wifi was not included on the property which was entirely our fault as the listing is accurate, however, it seems like an expected service these days. - Regarding the bedding, rather than using a doona cover, the doonas were uncovered and sandwiched between two loose sheets. There were also no fitted sheets; the mattresses were instead covered using another loose sheet. Doona covers and fitted sheets would be highly preferable.
