Hotel Description:

Simon & Saiko welcome you to The Ravenswood Hotel, centrally located only 400 metres from Torquay Harbour & town centre

We are a B&B hotel, offering simple, clean, good value accommodation, plus an excellent breakfast.

Ravenswood is a B&B hotel, which prides itself on its traditional English breakfast, served in the dining room, with views over Torwood Gardens. Guest rooms are compact but comfortable and the hotel retains its Edwardian character. The location of The Ravenswood Hotel is superb, being adjacent to Torquay Museum and on the Agatha Christie Mile. A short walk of 400 metres takes you to the harbour, with its boats, restaurants and Pavilion or to the central shopping area in Fleet Street and Torquay's nightlife and Theatres. Also within a 400-metre radius are over 20 pubs, cafes and restaurants, so you will be spoilt for choice when selecting something to eat. Torquay's blue flag award beaches are also but a short walk away and for the energetic, the South West Coast Path is a great place to walk and take in the scenery. All rooms are non-smoking. Although smokers are permitted to smoke in the conservatory. The hotel has limited parking on-site and so cannot guarantee guests a space. But on street parking outside the hotel is free and unrestricted overnight. There is also a large pay and display car park within 200 metres of the hotel.
