It’s one of the oldest and largest model villages in the country and a great place to visit whether you’re young or young at heart.

The Best Hotels in Torquay, England, for Every Traveller
"The Victorian splendour of the Hotel Balmoral makes it a fabulous place for a Gatsby-themed party – it even has a fountain and a pyramid staircase leading onto the manicured gardens for your grand entrance. Glass chandeliers swing from a high stucco ceiling in the lounge and bar that has a wooden dance floor – should that party ever take place. Meanwhile, rooms are cheerily decorated and more pared-back than the rest of the hotel, so you’ll want to spend your time exploring Torquay’s attractions – Meadfoot Beach is literally on your doorstep."
