About Home of the author of the jungle book
Travellers drawn to a bit of literary history alongside their Devon coast break will find Home of the Author of the Jungle Book a fitting base. Set on Rock House Lane in Torquay, the hotel trades on its connection to the famous story while offering practical comforts for a seaside stay, including free on-site parking for those arriving by car.
Rooms include family options with en-suite bathrooms, kitchen access and drinks available in room, along with sea views from parts of the property. Guests have access to free WiFi, a garden and outdoor seating area, and meeting rooms for those combining leisure with business. Reception operates around the clock, and there's a kitchen on hand for guests who prefer to self-cater during their stay.
The surrounding area suits an active or outdoorsy trip, with golf, fishing, horse riding, cycling and walking all nearby, plus watersports for those keen on the coast itself. Pubs, bars and restaurants are within easy reach for evenings out, and entertainment nearby rounds off a stay that works equally well for families, couples or small groups exploring Torquay and the wider Devon coastline.
