The Charterhouse is situated approximately 100 yards from the clean sands of Livermead beach and the seafront. Approximately 100 yards in the opposite direction are the treelined meadows of the Cockington Valley Country Park, where meandering walks along the babbling brook leads to the delightful village of Cockington, with its 14th Century Thatched Forge.

Alternatively you can travel in style in one of the horse drawn carriages that runs down Cockington Lane, and past the Charterhouse, on a regular basis.

The Hotel is, therefore, ideally sited, being close to the seafront and the main road linking Paignton and Torquay, yet enjoying the tranquillity of a semi rural setting.

At the end of the M5 continue along the A38/A380 towards Plymouth. At the Shell garage where the A38 & A380 fork, take the left-hand lane sign-posted A380 Torquay. Keep on this road for approximately thirteen & a half miles until reaching a large roundabout near to the Coventry Farm Trading Estate. Keep straight on the A3022 towards Torquay, ignoring the A380 ring road, which goes off to the right. Keep straight on the A3022 through three sets of traffic lights. At the fourth set of traffic lights, with CURRYS on the left hand side, continue through two more sets of traffic lights which are close together, at which time the road widens into two lanes, with the outside lane sign-posted Harbour and Seafront. Take this lane and pass through the traffic lights by the Halford Superstore and Tor Station, into Avenue Road. Keep straight on all the way to the seafront and at the seafront turn right towards Paignton.

Take the turning on the right hand side, directly after the Livermead Hotel, sign-posted for Cockington.

The entrance to The Charterhouse is approximately 75 yards after passing under the railway line.
