Company information

Paula & Ray welcome you to Grosvenor House. Our enjoyment of meeting new people led us to the choice of buying and owning a guest house, which we now run together. So rest assured we will offer the warmest welcome possible, and look after you with help and advice during your stay (should you need it). We both enjoy being a little green fingered - so hopefully the garden areas will be in full bloom when you visit us. Away from looking after our guests, we both enjoy American sports, music (listening and a bit of playing) and looking after our cats.

Property information

Our aim is to make Grosvenor House a home away from home. An extended Edwardian property, originally built in the early 1900s, we are in a tree lined avenue, which forms part of the Torre conservation area. Our bedrooms will continually be renovated under our ownership. Many already offer a modern and comfortable homely feel, and our plan is to enhance the warm welcome offered through ongoing renovation / redecoration. Rooms are flexible in terms of bed occupancy, so whoever you are planning a visit to Grosvenor House with, we are sure to be able to offer the warmest of welcomes.

Neighbourhood information

The Torre conservation area boasts numerous buildings dating back to the Edwardian and Victorian eras, as well as further back in time. We are just metres from the beautiful Torre Abbey gardens, and the Abbey and Barn which are listed buildings. Ideal for a visit,or just a stroll through the gardens, which will bring you to the beach at Torre Abbey Sands. Head away from the beach and in the narrow streets of Torre itself you will find a number of small shops and cafes to enjoy
