Torquay is the principal town of the English Riviera on Devon’s south coast, serving a Torbay catchment of approximately 140,000 and benefitting from strong year-round tourism, with over 880,000 staying visitor trips annually across Torbay. The town is accessed via the A380, linking to the M5 at Exeter approximately 22 miles to the north.
