Great traditional style hotel
Pros:

The room was large with a decent sized bathroom. The bar and restaurant area were nice, and there was a lovely outdoor terrace. The location was great as it was only a short walk from the train station and local shops. The staff were friendly.

Cons:

We stayed for two nights and on the second morning we had to wait quite a long time (about 45 mins) for our cooked breakfast. The continental selection had run out. There didn't seem to be many staff members about. They did apologise at the time for the delay. The food was good once it arrived, it was just a shame about the long wait. Luckily we weren't rushing to go or we would have had to leave without eating!

Ok, but staff made it less enjoyable
Pros:

The hotel itself.

Cons:

Attitude of some of the staff. Young girl tending breakfast seemed to not have a care in the world, very forgetful. Staff on reception always in back room, had to shout from front desk to get their attention. Cleaning staff stood talking in middle of corridor blocking my path, had to ask 3 times if I could pass her before she sighed and moved.

Wedding Day!
Pros:

Our wedding day at Torrance was a dream come true, and everything ran incredibly smoothly from start to finish. A huge thank you to our amazing wedding coordinator Rebecca for keeping everything on track and to Dominic he made sure we had everything we needed throughout the day. A mention to Brian on the night staff for his exceptional service late into the evening, and checking I was happy with everything on the morning of. Honestly, every single member of staff we encountered was brilliant. Finally, a quick mention of the honeymoon suite—it was absolutely beautiful and the perfect place to unwind after the best day of our lives. 10/10!"
