Torquay is a wonderful base from which to set forth and discover the endless sights of South Devon and Dartmoor.

The Corbyn Head undoubtedly has one of the most enviable locations in Torquay; just a stones throw from the sea and only a short stroll from beaches and all major facilities. Many of our guest prefer to laze away on the sun terrace or beside the pool before they take in many of the sights and sounds of this busy holiday area.

The Corbyn Head is situated on the main seafront of Torquay, just steps away from Livermead Beach and only a short walk from the main Torquay Beach Torre Abbey Sands and is close to tennis courts, bowls greens, theatres, marina, harbour & shops.
