Best Bath Houses in Sidmouth

"The South Devon coast stretches out in front of the Imperial Hotel Torquay, a mid-century-style building that belies its history as a hangout for well-heeled Victorians. This heritage is celebrated in the form of marble floors, towering four-poster beds and gilded chandeliers, while its clifftop position offers unspoilt views of the bay – best enjoyed from the comfort of the front-facing rooms or the ornately decorated Regatta Restaurant’s outdoor terrace. The outdoor pool, which is shrouded by European black pine trees, feels like the South of France – when the weather plays ball."

"This four-star hotel is located on a cliffside in Torquay, a few meters away from the town’s center, the beach, and some sites such as Torre Abbey and English Riviera Centre.

In keeping with a beachfront pile surrounded by nature’s bounty, Cary Arms is circled by the South West Coast path, and the wild Dartmoor is only a half hour’s drive.
