This spacious family home enjoys a prime location in the heart of Appledore and boasts views across the estuary and out to sea. Sleeping seven guests, the property is perfect for get-togethers with friends and loved ones. The area is a paradise for walkers, with nearby routes taking you along the South West Coast Path and Tarka Trail. You’ll also be close to some of the region’s most-loved beaches, including Westward Ho! (3.5 miles away).

The end-of-terrace cottage is arranged across three floors. A couple of steps lead to the front door, and once inside you’ll find a warm and welcoming home, with a clever blend of styles and vibrant pops of colour throughout. The spacious lounge/diner boasts fabulous views through the bay window, and has a wood burner for chilly evenings. Unwind on the comfy seating to watch the Smart TV/DVD, or enjoy mealtimes at the dining table. A stylish kitchen is also located on the ground floor. On the first floor, you will find two bedrooms – a king-size with an en-suite shower room and a double - along with a family bathroom. The final bedroom is a family room, with a double zip and link (can be made as twin beds on request), located on the second floor. Outside, there is a small courtyard with a handy hose for cleaning muddy boots.

Wander out of the cottage and onto Appledore’s narrow, cobbled streets. Peruse the independent shops, before popping into one of the tea rooms for a coffee and homemade cake. In summer, a foot ferry takes you across the estuary to the popular seaside village of Instow, where you can build sandcastles and eat ice creams on the beach. There are some excellent family attractions nearby, including The Milky Way Adventure Park and North Devon Wake Park (both within 12 miles).

What a great location with wonderful views. The cottage is extremely comfortable and very well appointed. Easy walking distance to the local pubs, shops and public transport. Parking is tight but it was great to have a place to leave the car during our stay.

It is a really lovely house, beautifully clean, ideal location, fantastic sea views. We had everything we needed in the house. We were left some milk, tea, coffee and toilet rolls. We had a lovely week and it was nice for the family to get together in the house.

Wonderful stay in a wonderful holiday home. Spotlessly clea++! Wonderful views from the windows and the location was perfect for us. As we at this time only have a small car the parking area was fine for us. The owner surprised us by a lovely email on our return home. We can honestly say no host has done that before despite many stays away in the pRead moreast either alone or with our family. Alan Hide

Great house, plenty of space, good kitchen. Had all the kitchen itensils. Decent broadband! Attic room is nice, great views of the river. The slipway to swim is feet away (good swimmers, watch the tides). And space for a small car, a bonus in Appledore. We wont hesitate to come back.

Would absolutely recommend staying here. Lovely spacious house, well equipped and comfortable. Parking can be tricky if your car isn't small enough to take advantage of the included space but lots of positives outweigh this. Wouldn't hesitate to return to Sea Spray if I was returning to the lovely, friendly village of Appledore.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sea Spray. A very comfortable, well equipped house that was like a home from home. The views from the house over the river and of the sunsets were beautiful. The house is located right beside the beach and a short walk to the country park so was perfect for us and our little dog.

Sea Spray was a lovely house to stay in. Very comfortable, well equipped and in a great location with views of the estuary and a short walk to pubs and the shop. Couldnt have asked for more. Parking for one small car was also really useful. All contact with the owner was really good. Great place to stay in Appledore. Will definitely book again.
