  • The best place about torbay in general is goodrington, the beach and the cliffs are beautiful at night especially when they turn the lights on at fairy cove.
  • Friendly local community with much to offer for young and old alike. A good variety of shops and eating venues.
  • The seagulls
  • Relaxed seaside feel of it - the welcoming southerners (as a northener, this helps!!) and the busy busy summers thro to the dead as a doornail winters!! Inn on the Green's bouncers are crap!
  • saffron moon the cat
  • The sea front pubs stay open until 12. The sea. The sun. Thats it.
