Exactly as Described and Lovely

Sarah was a wonderful host.... attentive and with extra welcoming touches,,,tea, coffee, milk and cookies for our arrival, together with a hand written note. The cottage was clean, well put together, and comfortable. Just a five minute walk to the estuary with many shops and restaurants. Appledore is very central for exploring Devon and Cornwall. Thank you Sarah!

The Stables.

Our stay at The Stables was excellent. Peaceful location. Just outside the village area but close enough to walk everywhere.(even after a knee operation). The Stables was lovely and clean and had all the facilities we required. Two very small criticisms. The shower was a bit 'cramped' and the balcony would be more private if the balustrade was boarded over to make it 'solid but overall we would love to return.
