Neighbourhood information

The Cleveland is ideally located in Torquay. We are away from the busy main roads, so you can enjoy a peaceful nights sleep. However, most of the local attractions, restaurants and bars are within easy walking distance or a short taxi ride away. Public transport is very close by too, so why not leave the car and enjoy an open-top bus ride around The Bay? There is so much to see and do.
