Richardson Hotels has sold the freehold of The Abbey Sands Hotel on Belgrave Road in Torquay to a private buyer.
The property was sold off a guide price of £1.95m and Bespoke will operate the hotel on behalf of the new owner.
The Abbey Sands Hotel comprises a pair of Victorian villas on a 1.36-acre site and provides 52 ensuite bedrooms and a restaurant and lounge bar with a combined capacity of 80 covers. The property also features indoor and outdoor swimming pools.
Harriet Fuller, associate director in Savills’ hotels capital markets team, which acted for the vendor, said: “We are pleased to have sold The Abbey Sands Hotel, a well-presented property in a prime location. This follows the successful sale of the Falmouth Hotel in 2024, highlighting our track record. We continue to see significant investor interest for hotel assets in the southwest region and anticipate this trend to continue into the second half of the year.”
