Offering glorious views across the River Torridge as it meets the River Taw, this stylish, light and spacious second-floor apartment makes a fabulous holiday retreat for couples and smaller families. A great base for exploring the gorgeous beaches, quaint harbour towns and magnificent countryside of North Devon, the property offers bright and relaxing accommodation for up to four guests. Overlooking the historic quay in the picturesque fishing village of Appledore, this delightful and characterful retreat sits above a fantastic tearoom and delicatessen, and has been stylishly updated and decorated in fresh, soothing tones.

A shared entrance leads to a steep and winding cottage-style staircase which takes you up to the entrance of the apartment on the second floor of the building. Inside, you will find the spacious open-plan living area with a large window overlooking the quay, and a telescope so you can watch as boats cross the estuary and head out to sea. The lounge has a Smart TV and Bluetooth speakers, making an ideal space to sit back and unwind, while the central dining table is perfect for sharing favourite meals which you can rustle up in the stylishly designed kitchen. The property also has two delightful bedrooms, each with a TV and an invigorating en-suite bathroom: you can choose between the lovely king-size room and the cheery twin.

Appledore has a wealth of great places to eat and drink, with a bustling quay so you can watch the boats come and go. The popular village of Instow is just a mile away by ferry, with a wonderful sandy estuary beach. Westward Ho! (3 miles) has a stunning two-mile long sandy beach. Other local attractions include Northam Burrows Country Park, The BIG Sheep, The Milky Way Adventure Park and the traditional village of Clovelly, all within 14 miles.

A beautiful property in a great location within Appledore. We have stayed here twice now and both times have found the property spotlesly clean and well equiped. The views from the lounge and bedroom windows across the estuary towards instow are lovely. We will definitely look forward to staying here again.

Fabulous location and views were amazing, apartment was very clean and tidy and was lovely to have two bathrooms. Very steep stairs so just be mindful of that when booking. Appledore is a very pretty quaint village, but can be very quiet during the week.

Lovely spacious apartment with terrific views of the estuary and Instow. Could easily accommodate 2 couples or a family of 4. Quality fixtures and fittings and the beds were super comfortable. Both bathrooms had separate baths and showers, and the water pressure was brilliant, nothing worse than a disappointing shower! Would definitely stay agaRead morein. Hide
