Fab Spring Break

A lovely stay at The Imperial Hotel in Torquay. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to a seaview suite and had lovely sunshine for the entire stay. We got up onto Dartmoor, walked to a Tor and met some ponies and also went to the theatre to see a show and enjoyed some fab seafood in a local restaurant. A great couple of days.
