Non-smokers only please. New Esplanade Court is a two storey block of privately owned apartments built in a U shape around a landscaped garden and swimming pool. It is set on a private road just behind the main Esplanade, so although incredibly central to all the facilities and activities Paignton has to offer, it remains a quiet, hidden away location. It is only a couple of minutes walk from the beach and pier and also the Geopark and Paignton Green. The harbour, High street shops, gift shops, amusement arcades, a cinema complex, a theatre, crazy golf and lots more are also only a few minutes walk away. Victoria Park is ideally located only 4 minutes walk from the apartment and there is a lovely playground and duckpond here. We have put together in the apartment a guide book of information and suggestions of places to visit and things to do during your stay. The attractions of Torquay, Babbacombe, Brixham, Totnes, Dartmouth and Dartmoor are all within a short drive. Alternatively, just sit back with a drink and relax in your comfy surroundings if you're in need of unwinding for a while! There are pubs and lots of eating establishments all a very short walk away. Be naughty......treat yourselves to a cream tea on the lawn at the Palace Hotel next door, but go there hungry.....the scones are big!
