Nestled in the charming town of Appledore, this early 19th-century Grade II-listed building rests directly alongside the serene estuary, presenting a postcard-worthy vista on your doorstep. Meander through the enchanting streets bordered by picturesque fisherman's dwellings in soft pastel hues, while a delightful array of cosy pubs, cafes, and eateries offer front-row seats to the vibrant maritime activity - including the Seagate restaurant opposite your front door. Immerse yourself in the town's legacy at the Maritime Museum, or explore its thriving arts and crafts scene with galleries and boutiques aplenty. Surf enthusiasts will find bliss at the renowned Westward Ho! beach (3 miles), while the nearby town of Bideford (3.5 miles) invites exploration with boat trips to the captivating Lundy Island. Families seeking adventure can revel in the delights of The Big Sheep (4 miles) or venture 11 miles down the coast to the Milky Way Adventure Park for a day of boundless fun.
Stepping through your front door off Appledore Quay, you will soon notice the unique yet cosy design of this wonderful cottage. The home features a semi-upside-down design with the lounge on the upper floor (making the most of its quayside views), alongside two bedrooms and the bathroom. The kitchen, dining space and final bedroom await on the lower floor. The lounge features a comfortable corner sofa, Smart TV and wonderful views across the estuary, and there is also an accompanying desk space where you’ll find the perfect spot to unpack the binoculars. The kitchen sits alongside the dining room and provides all the appliances needed for a stress-free stay, whilst the dining table provides the perfect setting for laid back meals together, along with an additional sofa for relaxation after a hearty meal. The first of the three bedrooms sits opposite here and contains a double bed, whilst the further two bedrooms upstairs handily host a single bed and a king-size zip-and-link option which can be made into two singles upon request. Completing this home from home is the family bathroom, providing a shower over bath and WC, and an additional WC just off the kitchen.
Although there is no private outdoor space, guests can delight in stepping outside the front door and being in the heart of everything Appledore, whether it’s grabbing a Hockings ice cream from the van opposite throughout the spring and summer, enjoying your favourite tipple in the restaurant opposite or simply enjoying the scenic views from the quay.
