Vane Hall - a house that sleeps 6 guests in 3 bedrooms

Enter a kingdom of ritzy indulgence when you take exclusive hire of Vane Hall– its elevated position provides breathtaking 360-degree panoramas, stretching across Torbay to the open sea and inland to Dartmoor. From sunrise to sunset, the views are truly something to behold, and guests can soak them in from every corner of the property – whether enjoying family breakfast on the sea-facing terrace, relaxing in the six-person hot tub after a dip in the sea, or unwinding with a good book in the light-filled conservatory.

This is a no-need-to-leave house. But the 600-mile-long coastal path is on the doorstep – so you can jam-pack your days discovering award-winning beaches, enjoying water sports in the bay, lining up for lobster and chips, or, for a taste of the town's rich history, visiting Torre Abbey or stepping into the life of Agatha Christie at her former holiday home. When the sun melts into the sea, Torquay's vibrant marina, packed with stylish bars and restaurants (including a Michelin-starred restaurant well worth a visit), is just a short stroll away. By day, have salty skin and sandy toes; by night, sequinned dresses and glittering soirées.

Vane Hall's interiors bring zest to every soul who steps inside. Inspired by a villa on Lake Lugano, Italy, this home has been renovated by the Californian interior designer Bita De Laurentiis, who has given Vane Hall a colourful Italian twist – an abundance of pattern and interesting artwork await through every door. The large living and entertaining spaces mean there is plenty of room for everyone.

The dining room will be your space for sumptious suppers – the perfect setting for a fun evening and a piano for evening sing-songs, and laughter. The family chef will love the kitchen boasting a gas-fired Aga, perfect for preparing everything from lazy breakfasts to gourmet five-course dinners. This classic kitchen is bathed in light, and at its centre sits a charming French dining table, steeped in history and dating back to World War II. Wander through to the conservatory with your holiday read and a fresh coffee in hand, throw open the doors, and soak in the sparkling sea views and fresh sea air. This is a spot for those who wish to simply recline and relax while looking out to the water. The spacious living room has a 55” TV screen for family movie nights, so when evening settles in, the outside world fades into insignificance as you jump into the next blockbuster.

With a rich Italian flavour and california vibes, this luxury home in Torquay flaunts interiors combining an eclectic fusion of classic and contemporary style to give a flamboyant finish. You will uncover three bedrooms, all promising the sweetest slumber imaginable. Two feature gloriously comfortable superking-sized beds, one a kingsize bed. Each bed is swathed in luxury linens for ultimate nighttime indulgence. Every room is unique, but each boasts an adventurous colour palette that oozes opulence. A romantic wake-up is guaranteed, with sensational views from every corner of the house and the sea breeze wafting in through the windows.

Steeped in history the tower was built for the first American Ambassador to England and incorporates Italian architectural ideas. During World War II The Home Guard used the tower as a lookout post for enemy aircraft. The Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw visited the tower. He was the only person to have been awarded both a Nobel Prize for Literature (1925) and an Oscar (1938) for ‘Pygmalion'. The 1897 play ‘You Never Can Tell' was set in Torquay.

Outside, spend languid time unwinding in the hot tub or take an uninterrupted leisurely lunch in the sunshine at the alfresco dining area – and become enveloped in the ever-changing elements of the sea. Vane Hall will become your oasis – one from which you won't want to return home
