  • "Enjoyed our stay at 1 At The Beach."

    We have stayed here before and at different apartments At The Beach, This is a nice apartment with the bonus of being able to sit out on a patio. The patio had been cleaned which made a difference but still could do with the actual stone paving being karchered, like the next door 2 apartments. The bed was very comfortable and all the linen and towels were fresh and new. A lovely hamper was left for our arrival which was much appreciated. We have already booked again for next year.

  • "This is a lovely modern apartment, with its biggest selling point being the location, however for the cost of a premium property there are a few things that are not as expected."

    Many of the walls had bare plaster the cleanliness of the property is not great, I had to clean all the kitchen down as the handles were sticky, the blankets and sofas smelt and are in need of cleaning. Also I think it would benefit a coffee machine even if only a coffee pod machine. The welcome basket was a nice gesture.

  • "Beautiful location and our second stay here."

    Perfect appartment for us. Roomy, all the facilities you could want and the best positioned flat in the block. Luxurious with all the facilities you could want. My only negatives would be that some minor maintenance needs to be done to make it lit a 10/10. Shower doors need new runners, don’t close fully and hung with cable tie. This would only cost a few pounds so just needs doing. No welcome pack? Really unusual and a welcome pack gives you the feeling they care. But not this time. Outside just needs a brush and hose down. Definitely come back

    The bed linen actually smelt like it had not been changed at all and the cushions and decorative blankets need to be refreshed. Sorry but on the price we paid not what we would expect.

  • "The apartments location size and views are amazing."

    Comfy sofas and beds. Nice soft furnishings. Great kitchen area. Would definitely stay again. It does however some TLC there are patches on the interior walls in main bedroom where paint is peeling bare plaster appears damp. The en-suite shower door had one of the 2 fittings attaching it to the track missing making it difficult to close and whilst showering fell off, I did report this and a prompt temp repair with plastic ties was made. On arrival the patio was extremely dirty which would have carried dirt into the apartment spent time cleaning it still needs more attention. The other 2 adjoining apartments were very clean in comparison. Garden furniture full of cobwebs. Wanted to leave everywhere nice and clean, only an old brush and sweeping pan and brush. No vac, mop or cleaning materials the little box of one bin bag dishwasher tablets and a cloth isn’t sufficient. Thanks for coffee and wine.

    We had difficulty locking all the outside doors, which we reported to Coast & Country who got someone out almost immediately. The outside is a disgrace, I wouldn’t think the patio has ever been swept and the boundary wall render is crumbling and dirty. The whole outside facias and frames need cleaning, the other properties have been done and look good. The bath in the en-suite still doesn’t hold water, we have commented on that every time we’ve been. The shower doors in both bathroom do not close properly. This is all such a let down as we love the property and location and have already booked for next year!

  • "1 At The Beach was the perfect accommodation for me and my elderly parents to spend a week’s holiday."

    It was accessible enough for them both especially being on the ground floor with spectacular views out to sea and along Slapton Sands. The apartment would benefit from some grab handles in the showers for those less steady and somewhere to put the soap, shampoo, etc. in the first shower please. I absolutely loved my bedroom at the far end of the apartment with dual aspect windows overlooking the sea - amazing! We were lucky with the weather and, although a little chilly, I enjoyed a few sea swims. The neighbours in other apartments were all so friendly too and everyone respected and enjoyed the peace and quiet of this unique place where we could recharge our batteries. Thank you for a wonderful experience and holiday location. We do intend to return and have already been recommending this accommodation to friends and family. Since booking, I discovered that my friends are already regular visitors to At The Beach - it’s their favourite place to holiday in the south coast. I think it’s now mine too! I must also mention how lively the locals are too, especially Karen at the Start Bay pub - the food there is exceptionally good and it’s so conveniently located. Thank you - we will be back!

    Very well equipped, but it would have been helpful to have more information about the equipment available. Also, your directions for finding the property need updating - we saw the sign for Hannaford's but looking like a Victorian painted sign on a derelict building. You said then to drive past the post office stores - which we couldn't find, and later discovered that they closed in 2018.

    Stunning view and location though lacked some privacy with the small terrace - outside photo didn’t reflect this and we didn’t expect walkers to be literally within feet of us. The plates and kitchenware was workable but felt outdated compared to the rest of the stylish property. This is a small thing but towels didn’t smell fresh and throw on sofa fusty. Upon entering the appt the place didn’t smell fresh as if cleaned …whether bleach used or otherwise. The welcome basket a lovely touch with locally sourced produce.

  • "We were very disappointed to have not been pre-warned about ongoing building work taking place right outside the property."

    This work began in February and is likely to complete in late July/ August. Builders vans obscuring the sea view, cement mixers, a portacabin, and building noise beginning in the early morning until late afternoon, all affected our privacy and relaxation. When my concern at the lack of communication about this before our holiday began was raised via social media at the start of the week, ( because their is no email address to send photos/ videos to) I received an online acknowledgment, and then two phone calls days later, promising to look into the communication breakdown with the property owner, but have heard nothing since and had no real apology. The customer care was poor in this respect. I understand the building work is outside their control, but some warning would have been both courteous and customer focused, and I am doubtful that future holiday lets will be advised of the disruption they will also face when staying at No. 1 At The Beach, Torcross this summer. We will not be booking with Coast and Country Cottages again, even though the apartment itself was lovely.

    The blinds in lounge and main bedroom were a disgrace, many of the slats were broken or bent. There was a lot of damp and flaking paint. Several lightbulbs were not working. The plug in bath was very temperamental. There was work going on on cliff pass and our lovely sea view was obliterated by vans and trucks parked opposite and a large storage hut parked on the seafront. They said they are going to be there another 2 to 3 months. We hope to return next year and hope the apartment issues will be fixed!!

The proximity to the beach is as stated although sitting outside did not afford any privacy from neighbours. Although not the fault of the owners there was a lot of noise and disruption during the week from workmen and their vans, not forgetting the huge concrete mixer, again taking away any privacy (and peace!)

    00 The week was, as always, fantastic, so much so we’ve already secured No 1 for next September There are a couple of things I’d like to say ( a note was written before leaving) bearing in mind the cost of a weeks rental! you may wish to pass to the current owners albeit I’m aware it’s on the market. The patio table & 2 chairs were broken on arrival causing a slight fall from the chair & bruising suffered. It was therefore not conducive for 4 of us to eat at any time (very disappointing when on a sunny holiday) They may wish to do a check of the crockery etc. We found a cracked plate & chipped glass. I have on a couple of previous stays pointed out that the main bathroom needs a shower caddy of some description to store shampoo, soap etc there is one in the en-suite. The dishwasher needed salt, the fridge seemed to frost up a lot of the time. I had to leave a full dishwasher due to the time of leaving etc, thought a full clean load rather than dirty……sorry Unfortunately I suffered a bad nose bleed one night, did wash the duvet cover etc, and sponged the duvet the best I could ……sorry again. One final thing, there is a picture on the wall between the bedroom & en-suite of waves crashing in front of the apartment…..we love it, could they point us in the right direction to acquire the same. Apart from the above little niggles, we had an amazing time, John & his wife were, as always, very helpful, polite etc Already missing the sea & counting the days till 10/9/22 All the best Debbie, Paul & Jess the sproodle 07961027203

  • "The apartment is amazing where it is, the view, the facilities, the size of the apartment is super!"

    Couple of drawbacks which is other occupants of apartments clearly bring more than one car so car park space is not guaranteed to be there when you return if you go out and there is little parking at Torcross which is a frustration (numbering the spaces would solve this I think). If hot it would be nice to open a window when sleeping but there are only doors to each room and on the ground floor this would not be secure to sleep with the door open however, there are tower fans in each room to provide air circulation. Still bearing those in mind, we would definitely return as being on the beach with sound and view of the sea is the best experience, we didn’t want to leave!

  • "Yup, this is me Mr."

    E whose wallet paid for this holiday so this is my come back. Firstly, for a holiday let, we could not really find anything negative about the apartment nor did we want to. Nicely appointed and located smack on the seafront, and the owner had put in a few welcoming touches, such as a bottle of vino, biscuits, a bottle of milk for a needed cuppa, a butler and maid and blowup doll.... joking about the last three amigos :) Entry to the property was a bit fiddly piddly pressing a sequence of command buttons at the front door... shucks, no one appeared, but we soon got the hang of it, the wife before me but she is one smart one she is. Next the long corridor to No1 and the fiddly bit again, getting access to the apartment key from a wall safe, finding the key hole in the dim lit corridor... why oh why are holiday lets always dimly lit... we must have looked like crims trying to bust in. Once in, nice. The sea view looking out was all the therapy I needed to calm down after a 230mile drive with the sat nav playing silly buggers for the last mile or so. Parking... not the best but managed to leave the family car diagonally out side the front entrance. The designated parking area is around the corner, up a narrow alley turn right into a gated parking lot. Not the best for an old codger with a stick lugging stuff. Suggest you join a gym, keep fit and have your doc check you out on a heart monitor and don't do it in the rain! I left the family wagon and horses parked diagonally at the front entrance, sod the inconvenience of the parking lot! As far as I could tell there were no provision shops nearby and what appeared to be shops were closed and probably being converted to holiday lets. There was a take away... spied a sandwich on offer at nine quid... God knows what they charge for a SubWay filled loaf? The one pub that also did meals, and take aways only had a token dog friendly welcome (huh!) bewteen 3pm and 6pm, the grave yard hours when takings are slow and low... so my beloved well traveled little Yorkie gave me a look which said 'lets skip this joint and go up market where people are accommodating, follow my lead (pun)'. Final verdict: nice chill out apartment, well appointed (had fun in the jaccuzzi bathtub retrieving my rubber duck from under the soap bubbles, yeah!) and enjoying the sea front. Would I go again? Erm, I want to see what else is on offer but recommended if you can deal with initial hasselments.

The property

‘At the Beach’ is a stunning development of luxury apartments and cottages situated on the very edge of the sea at Slapton Sands, just a few yards from the beach, village pub, cafes and restaurants.

A sympathetic transformation of the former ‘Torcross Hotel’ built in the late 1800’s, the development a stunning combination of Victorian elegance and modern day comfort.

1 At The Beach is a spacious, ground floor apartment, enjoying a private terrace with views across Start Bay.

The inner entrance leads directly into a large hallway with level access to all the accommodation.

The open plan living area is both stylish and contemporary, and boasts double French doors opening out onto a large terrace that directly overlooks Slapton Line and the beach.

The kitchen is modern, and very well equipped, including a custom-made worktop and ‘kettle tap’ that produces boiling water on demand.

A small freezer can be found in the hallway cupboard.

There is a breakfast bar extension with four designer stools, and a round glass dining table that comfortably seats four people.

The seating area is comfortably furnished with a 3 seater sofa, 2 tub chairs, nest of two tables, flat screen TV, DVD player, Bose Wave radio, wall mounted electric fire and a selection of board games, books and DVDs.

Master suite has sea views and double doors leading out to the terrace, a King-size bed with Vi-Spring mattress, wardrobe and chest of drawers, and en suite bathroom has a spa bath, separate shower cubicle and heated towel rail.

Second bedroom also enjoys stunning views, with a King-size bed, flat screen TV and sofa.

In addition to the master en suite is a fully tiled shower room.
