| The heated indoor pool offers relaxation after your excursions or a hard day''s shopping in the town centre. It is approximately one metre deep, so doesn’t require you to be an Olympic swimmer to stay afloat. Early birds can swim from 07:00 through to 19:00.
Unfortunately, due to the age of the hotel, not all the rooms in the hotel are accessible by wheelchair (yet!), but there are ramps to the restaurant and a lift from the front entrance to reception and the first floor. Once in reception, you have easy access to the Cabaret Bar, which has disabled toilet facilities, and the pool area – please note that there are no hoist facilities or a ramp into the pool itself. Parts of the garden are accessible by wheelchair.
If you have any mobility problems, it would be helpful if you inform the hotel at the time of booking before rooms are allocated.
For business events, the hotel provides a high-quality large-screen projector, (free for use), Wi-Fi internet and a PA system. The hotel can also tailor-make a conferencing package for you, including accommodation and hospitality service.
The main function room can accommodate up to 150 people, whilst downstairs there is a large pub-style function room, complete with stage, bar and dance floor, that can hold 120 people.
Every breakfast is cooked to order at the Newburgh Guesthouse, a traditional, family-run guest house just 280 metres from the beach and a 10-minute walk from Torquay town centre.
Built in 1861, the Newburgh has been updated without losing its charm. The en suite rooms each have a TV with Freeview. Early wake up calls and newspapers can be arranged.
The guest house is less than a mile from Torquay Railway Station and offers free off-street parking. Just 90 metres away, the Riviera Centre offers rainy-day activities including an indoor wave pool.
