Historical information
The Rice family owned Two Bays Private Hotel, purchased in 1919 when it was a small cottage called "Cooee". It was immediately extended and named "Two Bays". Effie ran the guesthouse for 29 years. She was the daughter of Mrs Edwards (later Mrs Wolfe) one of Torquay's pioneers, who established other guesthouses - Melba and St Heliers. Effie Rice bought Melba House from her mother and renamed it Pioneer House.
