This classic spacious, homely cottage with exposed stonework, a wood burner and a garden is ideal for a group of six seeking a cosy coastal break in North Devon. Set in the riverside village of Appledore with easy access to walking trails and beaches, you’ll feel connected to nature while benefiting from amenities on your doorstep. You’ll be surrounded by top-quality surfing spots, the North Devon National Landscape and an array of quaint seaside villages.
Located along a hidden, narrow footpath, as you step inside the property, you’ll feel a world away from the bustle of Appledore. The neutral-toned lounge boasts an inglenook fireplace and is decorated with wooden, leather and red furnishings. Natural light floods through the wide patio doors into the seating area with two plump sofas, an armchair and a bookshelf. Continue into the neutral-toned kitchen/diner to find nature-themed artwork on the walls and a long wooden dining table with six seats. A ‘U’-shaped fitted kitchen with an electric range oven is on the other side of the room. Climb the stairs to reach a contemporary family bathroom plus three bedrooms – two king-size, one with an en-suite, and a twin zip-and-link room. Outside is a courtyard garden with steps leading to an enclosed lawn. Parking is along the quay (100 metres) or in a public car park 300 metres away.
While staying in Appledore, you can enjoy dining out at the local pubs or grab a treat from the ice cream parlour before heading along the South West Coast Path (all within 1 mile) to Greysands Beach (2 miles). If you’re up for an adventure, an outdoor activity centre is just 1 mile away or you can hire water sports equipment from Westward Ho! Beach (2 miles). Spend a day walking Abbotsham Cliffs (4.5 miles) or head over the River Taw for the charming villages of Croyde and Putsborough (22 miles).
