About this property
One of Torquay's finest Victorian Mansions - now chic and modern holiday accommodation for up to te
St Anne's Manor can rightly claim to be one of Torquay' finest Victorian mansions having survived the years in tact as a family home. The property sits behind high walls and has an electric gate - there are more than three acres of gardens where children can play and explore. It's a property full of surprises including a luxury cedar wood hot tub.
The interior of the property has been re-purposed for 21st century occupants and guests and gives you a taste of Hollywood glamour and style without ever losing sight of its grand Victorian heritage.
As you enter the property through its porticoed entrance, you have a real sense that you are somewhere special. One the ground floor is the wonderful drawing room with doors that give access onto the sun terraces outside. Adjacent to this room is another with a pool table. Also on the ground floor is the enormous kitchen diner where ten people can gather in great comfort and style. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped and there is a further additional kitchen - "The Butler's" kitchen where there is an an extra oven and dishwasher. The ground floor is also where the TV lounge is located. This has a large screen TV and plenty of large comfy sofas for cosy evenings in. Also on the ground floor is the gym where there are a number of CV exercise machines plus free weights.
The property has five bedrooms with five bathrooms (four of which are ensuite).
Outside, sitting in the gardens, there is an incredible outside kitchen which is available for guest use (subject to weather conditions and seasons).
Please note that a gardener attends the property twice a week to ensure the grounds are kept to the highest standards.
