The Muntham Apartments are situated in Torquay on the South Devon Coast in an area that has become known as The English Riviera because of the continental feel of Torquay harbourside in particular. The area is an ideal all year round destination for short breaks as there is a very mild micro climate as well as a large number of all year round attractions.
The Muntham Apartments are in the leafy residential area of Wellswood which is just a five minute drive from the harbour and town centre. The centre of Wellswood is Ilsham Road which is a five minute walk from the apartments. Locals know it as Wellswood Village. Here you will find a pub, bistro, delicatessen, cafes, pharmacy, beauty salons and much, much more. Just beyond the shopping area is Kent's Cavern, a World Heritage site where the earliest human remains in north west Europe have been found.
The apartments also benefit from excellent public transport links. These include an intensive bus network that serves the whole of The English Riviera ( such as the towns of Babbacombe, St Marychurch, Paignton and Brixham) as well as places slightly further afield such as Dartmouth, Totnes, Teignmouth, Dawlish and the cities of Plymouth and Exeter.
The Muntham Apartments are formed from one of Torquay's grand old Victorian villas which was originally built for a man who was a member of Parliament for the area. It has retained lots of its original features but has also successfully managed to accommodate apartments that meet the needs of modern visitors. Guests now have access to EV charging points located in the car park.
