OWNERS INSIGHT
“In 1999 we decided to relocate to Torbay, both to enjoy the change of area and also to be close to relatives that at that point needed us close at hand. When we visited the town to commence our search we could not believe how lovely the area was. The scenery beautiful and lots of beaches, coastline and scenic walks all close at hand. St Marychurch is one of Torquay’s long established and highly regarded residential locations and it is clear to see why. It provides a good selection of shops and amenities, doctors, post office etc, more than adequate to cater for most people’s everyday needs, with lots of independent traders and two supermarkets all predominantly set in a lovely pedestrianised precinct which still retains a friendly, village ambience. We used to enjoy regularly popping up and using these amenities and making many friends along the way. We now feel that the time is right for us to end our ties with Torquay, but it is a decision made with a very heavy heart.”
