Stay on Agatha Christie's Riviera

Agatha Christie Breaks

Agatha Christie was without doubt one of the most famous residents of the English Riviera, and she held South Devon’s beautiful bay close to her heart. Born in Torquay, she later purchased a holiday home not far away at Greenway, and the sights and sounds of South Devon have been immortalised in many of her murder mysteries.

As well as being a classic British seaside resort, the English Riviera is a perfect destination for anyone fascinated by the author and her works. There are lots of great accommodation options to choose from in the areas of Torquay, Babbacombe, Paignton and Brixham, from luxury hotels to B&Bs and boutique-style guesthouses. Some of them will even go the extra mile to help you get the most out your Agatha Christie pilgrimage.

Christie is not only Britain’s foremost writer of crime fiction, she is also the biggest selling novelist the world has seen, and gathered a truly global audience. But many of those who live in her South Devon homeland have a particularly special affinity for all things Agatha Christie.

Helping you make the most of your visit

At some hotels and guesthouses you may find that the owners or staff are even bigger fans than you are, and can share all kinds of local trivia about the author. Booking an Agatha Christie break in our selected accommodation means you’ll receive a special Agatha Christie fan treatment on arrival, plus plenty of help with booking independent excursions to Greenway and other Christie-related attractions, and organising guided tours. Some hotels also organise their own tours for groups. To get the ultimate Christie experience, time your break to coincide with the Agatha Christie Festival, held in September.
