About this property

Take in breathtaking views across the estuary to Instow, and relax in this calm oasis. With nature on your doorstep, there are no end of coastal paths, local culinary delights and local arts to explore. Not to mention an active boatyard and fishing dock a stones throw from the cottage.

The cottage is newly renovated with luxury finishes throughout. Generous thick towels and 400 thread-count pure cotton bedding. The bathroom features responsibly sourced marble in the walk-in double rain-shower. And the paint is a melange of Farrow & Ball and Little Greene, providing luminescence throughout.

Appledore is adorable, set of the waterfront of an undulating peninsula. The house sits high on a look-out, up some 15 steps and is only a 6 minute walk to the Quay, at heart of the village. Benefitting from a charming vantage point, looking over the glistening water and across to Instow village. This view is especially pretty at night, with the sparkling waterfront lamps reflecting off the water.

Lovely stay

Had a lovely 3 night break, cottage is lovely a really nice comfy bed and furnishings very nice, garden front and back gardens could do with a bit of tlc but can see that someone has started to put some plants in, would really make the cottage perfect if the outside pace were improved. Had an issue with getting onto property due to Vrbo giving us an incorrect code for the key box!! Appledore is a great place everything just a short stroll away, good pubs and The Yard is a fab place to eat.

A great house in a good location

We had a really lovely stay in this pretty & comfortable house. It has stylish decor and a great bathroom & kitchen. It is in a quiet residential area with outstanding views. Appledore is an easy walk away and we enjoyed exploring the town & restaurants. As has been said, the property is unsuitable for anyone with mobility issues but I would recommend for anyone looking for a stay in beautiful Devon.

Owner tried to con us out of an extra £60...

Paper thin curtains and an extremely loud bed. Overall satisfied with the interior but the garden and the location of the property left much to be desired - a bit of a dive to say the least. The rooms were illuminated as soon as the sun came up as the curtains didn't block any sunlight. We spilt some tea on one of the towels and were certain that it would have washed out. We returned home only to be greeted with a £60 bill from the owner for 4 towels. We queried it and low and behold no proof could be provided. We assume the owner had washed it out and thought she would try it on. Overall we enjoyed ourselves in Appledore but that was not because of our experience with the property. Avoid this place and find somewhere else.
