The Cosmopolitan

Location

2 Kernou Road, Paignton, TQ4 6BA

Because we're just yards from the main Paignton beach many of our customers enjoy days relaxing and taking in the atmosphere of a bustling seaside resort. Others with more energy take boat rides, donkey rides or hire pedaloes and other recreational items.

And Paignton is the home of the Paignton-Dartmouth Steam Railway, a must-see for steam enthusiasts and the casual observer alike, and Paignton Zoo, the third largest zoo in the UK.

So there is lots to see and do locally.

And if you go just a little further afield there's Cockington Country Park, Babbacombe Model Village, Kents Cavern and much, much more.

Parking:
There is limited car parking (2 spaces) at The Cosmopolitan and Blue Badge Holders take priority.

Unrestricted, free, on-street parking is available between October and April.

Between May and September parking is limited to one hour between 08:00 and 18:00, and during these months we recommend the multi-storey car park at the top of Garfield Road, just round the corner, where necessary. There is a 24-hour charge, and a reasonable overnight fee (from 18:00 to 09:00).

However, you can park on the opposite side of the street outside overnight, between 17:00 and 09:00 the following morning, without restriction or charge, between May and September.

For longer stays you may wish to purchase a weekly ticket. Visit the Torbay Council website for further details.

A good alternative is a pub car park almost opposite us (The Spinning Wheel) which charges for all day parking, and is usually locked at night.
