Beach overall scores
Elberry Cove (Torbay) is located outside the Churston settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Elberry Cove with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"The serene cove exudes a sense of tranquility that is hard to come by in bustling tourist destinations. The beach is not swarmed with people, giving you ample space to stretch out and bask in the sun. Plus, it is conveniently located near the cat park, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing day trip. Overall, it is a delightful place to unwind and soak up the beauty of nature."
Mark Davidson.
"The beach is truly picturesque, but unfortunately, there isn't much to explore around. It's advisable to avoid visiting the place as it's just a tiny pebbled area and not a stunning beach that's secluded from the crowd. Although the water is a breathtaking shade of blue, it's not worth the effort to visit."
