Maidencombe Beach lies just 600 yards downhill from Devon Palms, a ground-floor apartment in a small terraced complex on the coastal road. The beach itself is sheltered, with a café and rock pools to explore; the village has a thatched pub within easy reach. Torquay town centre is 4 miles away, where eight more beaches fan around the bay, alongside shops, restaurants and museums including the caves and historic harbour that draw visitors year-round.
The apartment has one double bedroom and sleeps four, with a shower room and an open-plan living area that combines kitchen, dining and sitting space. The kitchen is properly equipped for self-catering—electric cooker, microwave, fridge and washing machine included. A sofa bed in the living room provides the extra sleeping space. Electricity, heating, wifi, bed linen and towels are all covered; you'll find a welcome pack on arrival. A cot and highchair are available if needed. One small dog is welcome to stay.
The grounds are shared with other holiday properties and include a children's play area and sitting-out spaces. Private parking for two cars comes with the apartment. Smoking is not permitted inside. The coastal walks around Torbay are among Devon's best, with clifftop paths connecting beach to beach past rolling countryside.

We recently stayed at Devon Palms in Maidencombe as a family of four, and it was a fantastic experience. The property, situated between Teignmouth and Torquay, offers a peaceful and scenic setting that's perfect for a family getaway. Our accommodation was clean, cozy, and well-equipped, making our stay comfortable and stress-free. The small children's play area was a great addition, giving our kids a fun space to play while we relaxed. The location is ideal, with easy access to both Teignmouth and Torquay, and beautiful coastal walks just a short drive away. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed for a great stay. Overall, Devon Palms is a wonderful choice for families looking for a relaxing and enjoyable break. We had a memorable time and would highly recommend it to other families!

We just recently had a long weekend break,the apartment we stayed was clean and newly painted with all facilities in the apartment where you can eat in or out,the owners I never seen it done that the hospitality they could not do enough, Location was amazing views and central where you can go either way to Torquay across the boat to Brixham where we ate and as a ex chef the best fish restaurant, Teignmouth was opposite direction, location of buses 20 mins max 30. If you go Brixham cross by the boat amazing view of the harbour and only £3 pounds return. Thank you ever so much especially Helen who was amazing to meet. We will be back ! THESE ARE NEW OWNERS And the place is amazing especially Top Apartment where we stayed

Apple Tree was a lovely apartment which felt surprisingly private and secluded on the farthest corner of this site. The dual aspect living room with sliding doors and sunset views was lovely to sit in and had a private outside space too. Our boys, aged 3 & 5, could play safely with other children in the communal fenced play area when we were outside without risk of straying into the car park. We spent a lot of time from our week hanging out in the gardens and apartment since our young children had little stamina for long days out at the extensive local attractions. The kids loved sleeping in bunk beds, and the layout worked well for us, with a perfectly adequate kitchen for us to self cater in the evenings and reliable free wifi. We were greeted on arrival by David, and he was very welcoming and readily offered local knowledge and advice for our trip. We would certainly stay here again.
