OWNERS INSIGHT
"My husband and I found our perfect retirement home here at Hyperion, Torquay, such a beautiful flat and economical to run and also feeling safe with security gates at night and keypad door entry. Looking out in the mornings seeing what had changed since I last looked out, was always a delight with beautiful flowers, and birds singing. All amenities close by and the wonderful Torquay sea front promenade. Always good to stop and chat. I’m only moving due to my deteriorating health, into a lovely care home. My neighbours are wonderful and caring, I’ll miss them, thank you for our time together."
