COSY FISHERMAN'S COTTAGE CLOSE TO THE QUAYSIDE, A PERFECT ROMANTIC GETAWAY, SLEEPS 2+1
Just yards from the slipway and within easy walking distance of all village amenities, this delightful cottage nestles in the oldest part of the picturesque fishing village of Appledore and is a short walk to the bustling quayside with galleries, tea rooms, pubs and restaurants that can be found amidst the narrow cobbled streets.
