This delightful cottage sits nearby the bustling quayside of this ancient fishing village of Appledore. Found in an elevated position off a quiet, narrow lane, this surprisingly spacious home makes for an idyllic stay. Just a short 300-metre stroll to the village centre with its maze of narrow lanes, brightly painted cottages, and quayside. A variety of cafes, pubs and restaurants in the village offer a wide range of cuisine and local seafood, and there are galleries showcasing local arts and crafts. A seasonal ferry takes passengers across the estuary to the pretty village of Instow with its sandy beach. Or visit the 2 miles of golden sands at Westward Ho! renowned for surfing (2 miles). And the pannier market town of Bideford (3 miles) is home to MS Oldenburg for day trips to Lundy Island.

The cottage was of a high spec and very thought out. The beds were exceptionally good for a holiday let. The kitchen was well equipped. The cottage was very close to the village so everything was within walking distance. When we needed to get hold of someone the response was very quick and helpful.
