The owners of a Devon cafe are on a mission to restore it to its former glory after it was devastated by fire.
The One World cafe in Torquay went up in flames after an electrical fault last September - just six months after opening.
Now, they hope to open their doors once again this April,
Owner Hayley Griffths and her business partner Alex Downey said they plan to rebuild the place as it was - and that the al fresco beach bar feel with live music was such a success that they hope it will look exactly the same.
Hayley, a Torbay Hospital auxiliary nurse said: "It killed me - all my dreams went up in smoke. I had put all my inheritance into it after my father died and left me his farm.
"The CCTV cameras inside the building showed how the fire all started because of an electrical fault.
"It has been a very hard winter but now we are looking forward again.
"The tender is out for the builders once the roof is back on.

"We are going to rebuild it so that hopefully it will look exactly the same. I loved it just how it was.
"We are hoping to have a better VIP area, which will be a little spiritual area that I'm going to name after my dad, Griff.
"Everybody who came in last year said One World has a really, really spiritual feeling. I put it down to the fact that I lost six people all in one year.
"It just feels special in there. Really, really relaxing and a good energy. There are fairy lights everywhere and pictures of Thailand that add to the mood.
"It's also because it's away from town that it's got a different feeling - there's never any trouble, it's just a lovely place to chill for everyone. We get older people and younger ones all together.
"Another funny thing at One World is that we get a lot of robins - they all love coming in and we have to shoo them all out at the end of the night."
Hayley added: "It's still a condemned building after the fire. Torbay Council have been amazing. They put a tin roof on to stop all the winter weather getting inside.

"It's still a condemned building at the moment but once the insurance has all been sorted out we should be able to get back in to get it ready in February."
