We had a wonderful stay at The Salt House. The cottage was in a superb location in Appledore with a lovely view of the Quay in the distance, (if you're up early you see spectacular sunrises from the cosy lounge).

Really lovely, comfortable property in perfect location - no parking but could generally find spaces in nearby car park. Ideal for family with 2 children. Also small but pretty and useful courtyard garden.
