OWNER'S INSIGHTS

“Newhaven has been an important part of my life since 1975 when it was originally my home and business and over time has provided me with a good source of income as well as a nice property to live in. Owned for almost 50 years.” I have used it to rent individual rooms and also as separate holiday apartments, both of which have been very popular and have also demonstrated the flexibility the property offers. In recent years I've started to "relax" a bit about that. For this reason and for health reasons I have now made the difficult decision to sell the property in order to start a new chapter in my life. I never counted, over the years there must have been literally hundreds of people who have enjoyed their holidays here on the English Riviera thanks to Newhaven, many of whom have returned year after year and have almost become family!'

Torbay's wide range of stunning beaches, picturesque coastline, mild climate and leisure facilities all justify Torbay's nickname 'The English Riviera'.
