Overview
Property code: BEAVI

With stunning estuary views of the Torridge and Taw, this refurbished fisherman’s cottage is perfect for year-round breaks to lovely Appledore. Wander into the village to stock up on supplies, enjoy a hearty meal and pick up mementoes to take home, or follow the coast path to neighbouring Westward Ho! before returning for a glass of wine on the private balcony.

Inside, this period property has been lovingly updated into a bright and airy bolthole full of homely touches. With a compact yet well-equipped kitchen, spacious dining room and inviting lounge area that opens onto the balcony, this is a fantastic house for entertaining. For those chilly evenings, the wood burner effect gas fire creates a warm and cosy atmosphere, while the French doors nearby offer an al fresco feel for summer months. Outside, the enclosed decked garden with seating and BBQ is fantastic for dinner with a view.

Tucked away on one of Appledore’s charming side streets, this property is ideally located for browsing the village’s delightful selection of independent shops, cafes, galleries and restaurants. During the summer months, ferries leave from Appledore’s quaint quayside to nearby Instow beach and village, while the sandy stretch at Westward Ho! (3 miles) is accessible via the coast path. Other nearby attractions include the family-friendly Milky Way (11 miles), the beautiful RHS Rosemoor (10 miles) and the enchanting seaside village of Clovelly (14 miles).

Enjoyed a dry and mainly sunny week in Appledore in this lovely cottage. Comfy sofas and beds with lovely views over to Instow. Beware the stairs though, I descended backwards as they are very shallow and steep. Well equipped and a short stroll to the quayside. Parking can be found a short distance away. Great base to explore this lovely part of DeRead morevon. Hide

Really enjoyed our time at Beach View. Absolutely perfect for our family. Relaxing, wonderful location and a well equipped home. We would love to come back to Appledore and explore further. We usually have breaks in Instow but tried Appledore for a change and are pleased we did.

We had a lovely stay in Beach View Cottage, perfect location. Stanley ( our dog ) loved the raised decking area, from where he had a lovely view across the estuary to Instow. The garden is secure. Kitchen well equipped. Many dog friendly pubs and beaches near by.

We had a lovely holiday and enjoyed the cottage and the roomy space it provided. We found the stairs steep a little steep but learned to descend backwards which wasn't an issue and the equipment and extra touches like lots of toilet rolls, towels, tea & coffee and washing up and cleaning products good.
