Location
Ilsham Marine Drive is home to many of Torquay’s most prestigious homes and is hugely sought after for its quiet ambience and for the stunning sea views on offer. Ilsham Marine Drive follows the contour of the hillside from Meadfoot Beach to Wellswood and forms part of the South West Coastal footpath. The delightful community of Wellswood offers a range of boutique shops and restaurants, schooling and the parish Church of St Matthias. Despite its quiet and glorious setting, Ilsham Marine Drive is within easy reach of the town centre which offers a diverse and wonderful range of shops, boutiques, galleries and an ever increasing range of dining experiences from beach front cafes to a Michelin starred restaurant. Torquay is a typical seaside town offering seaside living at its best with sheltered sailing waters, a beautiful coastline and clean beaches. It also benefits from a number of Grammar Schools offering ‘outstanding’ education. The university city of Exeter is approximately 23 miles distant, offering an international airport and access to the M5 network. Torquay offers a regular train service to London Paddington via Newton Abbot.
