Join the Social Breaks and Holidays Group for a four-night midweek stay at the TLH Toorak Hotel in Torquay.

  • Four-night, midweek stay with dinner, bed and breakfast each day with a welcome drink on the first evening.
  • Daytime and evening entertainment programme.
  • Free use of heated indoor swimming pool and outdoor pool with sun terrace, jacuzzi for guests.
  • Free WI-FI and parking, with porterage available on request.

This highly popular break consistently sells out, so we are excited to bring it back for 2026. Early booking is advised to avoid missing out. The TLH Toorak Hotel is the perfect place for a peaceful break in Torquay, offering a quieter atmosphere, views over the historic Torre Abbey House and Gardens and access to Torquay seafront. The hotel also offers a daytime and evening entertainment programme, which is available at no extra cost.

The hotel’s facilities include a 25m heated indoor swimming pool, outdoor pool with sun terrace, jacuzzi, sauna, and steam room, all available for guests to enjoy. A fully equipped gym, archery, ten-pin bowling, indoor bowls green, and snooker are also available, with some activities incurring a small fee. Luxury spa treatments, Pilates, Zumba, yoga, aqua aerobics, and mindfulness and meditation classes are available at an extra cost.

Torquay is a beautiful seaside town with plenty to see and do. Highlights include Kents Cavern, a Stone Age site offering guided tours, and Babbacombe Model Village. Torquay Harbour offers a picturesque setting with shops, cafes, and boat trips. Torre Abbey Museum, with its art galleries and gardens, is also a must-visit.

Torre Abbey Sands is perfect for swimming, while Meadfoot Beach offers a quieter spot to relax. The South West Coast Path provides stunning coastal views, and Cockington Country Park features traditional thatched cottages and gardens. Dartmoor National Park, a short drive away, is ideal for hiking and cycling.

Nearby attractions include Paignton Zoo, the historic Babbacombe Cliff Railway, and the Princess Theatre. You can also take a self-guided tour of the Agatha Christie Mile or visit her holiday home, Greenway, a National Trust property. For water sports, Torquay Watersports offers jet skiing, paddleboarding, and kayaking. Boat trips along the coast, wildlife watching, and fishing excursions are also popular. Enjoy local seafood at The Elephant, which has a Michelin star, or indulge in a traditional cream tea at one of the many cafes.

For day trips, the charming town of Dartmouth, known for its naval history and picturesque setting, is accessible by boat or car. Totnes, with its unique shops and castle, is also worth a visit, as is Exeter, with its beautiful cathedral, shopping, and museums.

Guests can extend their stay with an additional night before the break to attend the English Riviera Airshow, which is due to coincide with the break (subject to confirmation). Additional nights are available at an extra cost, subject to availability.

Included in this four-night break are breakfast and three-course dinners each day, tea and coffee, and a welcome drink of house wine served with dinner on the first night. Car parking is free, with two electric vehicle charging points available at a cost.

The hotel has a lift and offers a range of rooms designed to meet different needs, including disabled-adapted rooms, rooms with step-in showers, and ground-floor rooms close to the lift. Please state any specific requirements when booking. Dogs and pets are not permitted, except registered guide dogs, hearing dogs, and assistance dogs, which must be mentioned at the time of booking.
