The view from the lounge is lovely especially when there is a sunset. The garden terrace is absolutely gorgeous especially when you are blessed with good weather. Appledore is a quaint little place. Lovely and peaceful. We would stay again at sea Escape in a heartbeat. When you get sunshine six days out of seven it is Heaven in Devon.

A superb house in a marvellous location. The view from the top patio balcony is outstanding. Just ten minutes walk to the town quay gets a variety of eating places and coffee houses.

Beautiful cottage with views to match. It was a nice surprise to have a few goodies left for us. A well equipped cottage and left us wanting for anything. Great location with great places to eat close by. Location ideally situated for walkers and also cold water swimmers. Plenty of swimmers nearby. Would definitely book here again.

Amazing views and a brilliant location next to a very cute village with great places to eat in or for take away. There were minimal provisions with just a local deli which is pricey, so make sure you bring your essentials as well as your luxuries. The house was very modern and architectural, with lovely natural light but also comfortable.

Situated in the most amazing location, with comfy beds ( please tell me the mattress supplier?) elegant finish and quality furnishing, apart from a few niggles ( which we flagged up) a super stay, we would definitely return - also super quiet, which is a real plus.
