1. About StayTorbay

StayTorbay is an independent travel and tourism guide for the Torbay area of Devon, England. We are not affiliated with Torbay Council, Visit Torbay, or any of the venues listed on our site. Our aim is to provide useful, impartial information to help visitors and locals discover the best of the area.

2. Accuracy of Information

Venue listings on StayTorbay draw on data from Google Places and other publicly available sources. We make every reasonable effort to keep information accurate and up to date, but we cannot guarantee that opening hours, prices, contact details, or services are current at the time of your visit.

We strongly recommend that you verify important details directly with the venue before visiting. StayTorbay accepts no liability for any inconvenience, loss, or expense arising from inaccurate or outdated listing information.

3. User-Submitted Reviews

Visitors may submit reviews and ratings on venue pages. By submitting a review, you confirm that:

  • The review reflects your genuine, first-hand experience.
  • It does not contain false, misleading, defamatory, offensive, or unlawful content.
  • You are not submitting a review on behalf of a venue owner or competitor.
  • You grant StayTorbay a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to display the review on our website.

We reserve the right to remove reviews that breach these conditions without notice. We do not verify reviews, and they reflect the opinions of individual visitors rather than the views of StayTorbay.
