  • Beautiful property set in an idyllic position on the river’s edge with far-reaching views

  • Take a day trip and enjoy one of the many fabulous beaches the region has to offer
Property code: WATER

This attractive and spacious three storey property is in an idyllic location, nestling within an olde-worlde street in a picturesque fishing village. Step out onto the balcony from the master bedroom and watch the colourful fishing boats bobbing on the water below and enjoy panoramic views across the river to Instow and beyond. The house is also in an ideal setting from which to explore the numerous attractions across the North Devon coast.

With everything you and your family need for a relaxing stay, you have the choice of unwinding in the warmth of the comfortable open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner on the ground floor or opening the patio doors and enjoying the fresh air and views from the raised, furnished balcony. Plush, welcoming bedrooms will offer you rest, as well as the master bedroom having its own balcony and another of the double bedrooms boasting sea views.

This house is in the same street as two friendly, lively pubs that serve highly reputed, locally sourced fish cuisine. Enjoy a peaceful walk through the narrow, cobbled streets to the bustling quayside, just 500 yards away, where you can watch the fishermen return with the day's catch. Across the estuary, Instow offers a sandy beach and quality eateries; a ferry crosses to Instow from Appledore quay during the summer months. Westward Ho!, with its long sandy beach, Atlantic surf and seafront with lively amusements is only 3 miles away or golfers might like to play a round at The Royal North Devon Golf Club (2 miles), an historic course that stretches out across the Northam Burrows.

We stayed before at Waterfront House just over 5 years ago and loved it then. The new owners have made so many improvements. The new patio doors together with glass balcony give you totally clear views across the estuaries. Will be booking again in the winter.

We LOVED Waterfront house. It is beautifully furnished and had everything we needed. We were blessed with gorgeous sunshine all week, so made the most of the balcony, having the doors wide open all week listening to the waves and watching the comings and goings. Perfect holiday; well be back!

Our second stay in this property. Wonderful location with excellent views across the estuary. Well equipped and comfortable. Excellent location in Appledore with all amenities within walking distance. The parking space is at a premium in Appledore for a water front house. Heartily recommend.

Amazing location, comfortable, welcoming, very well appointed, inside beautifully clean. Parking space a real bonus given location. Really enjoyed our stay and would return, but unfortunately let down somewhat by three issues: dirty balcony (on arrival we found human hair, bird poo, and half-eaten food), lack of basic cleaning materials, and absencRead moree of first aid kit despite this being a requirement. A few tweaks needed to iron out issues then would be perfect. Hide

We stayed at this cottage last year and were very impressed with it, so we booked it again for this year. The cleanliness was not so good this year. The dishwasher and washing machine both needed cleaning before we could use them. Both stairgates were broken and we need to use them as we had a puppy with us. Both en-suite bathrooms had dirty fan veRead morents with mould in the corners of the showers. Hide
