A very nicely located waterside cottage eright next to the estuary. There's lovely views and it's an easy level walk to the village centre. It's an old building with charm, but be careful if you are tall as there are some low beams.

The location of Pedro is simply stunning and much enjoyment can be had sitting watching the bird life, the coming and going of the tides and the sailing boats and dinghies. The cottage is comfortable and well equipped. I would highly recommend the cottage for its semi-rural location, but quick access to the local shops and restaurants.

A perfect gem! Much larger than first appears. Exceptionally well equipped and logically laid out. Very cosy and relaxing in a lovely location with astounding estuary views across to Instow from the lounge, and even better from the secure garden. Easy access to all of the treats North Devon had to offer. Highly recommended.

The setting was lovely. Perfect for us having 3 generations and a dog. Walking distance to the shops and cafes. Parking wasn't too much of an issue, we found a spot ok fairly close. The property in parts is lovely, just needs some tlc to make it so much better. Looks like the only cottage in a long row that hasn't had any upgrades made to it, so itRead more looks a bit sorry for itself. But it wouldn't put us off going again. If you like quirky and original you'll love this little house Hide

Lovely position, great views, but could benefit from a bit of TLC. Bathroom is good, beds and sofa comfy, linen fresh and good quality. kitchen well equipped. Stairs are steep but you get used to them, being able to pull up outside to unload was a bonus, and parking was easy enough to find. Glad we didnt take the dog as the outside area would have Read morebeen a constant challenge to keep him in. Appledore itself is a lovely friendly spot with some good eateries. Hide

We loved our stay in Pedro. It was deceptively large! We all fit comfortably and it was lovely to be able to bring the dog. The children absolutely loved crabbing from the back garden. We paid to park the car in the car park for a week- 22 seemed very reasonable. We visited Westward Ho with the dog as well as Instow and the Big Sheep. Room to wash Read moreand dry washing on the line (important to us!) Overall it was good value and we would book to visit again at this price. Hide

Fantastic cottage in a fabulous position right on the quayside. The restricted height of the kitchen is made quite clear in the blurb. Im 64 and I did stoop in the kitchen, but even with that, Id go back to this cottage again as its really quite special.

Great central location. Short walk to Appledore water front, lots of bars/places to eat - Great deli there too. Free parking is a bit of a lottery but doable.Cottage kitchen/laundry facilities good. Good shower room. Beds in double rooms are comfortable, linen clean, great view of estuary from both. Twin room not so great, can feel mattress springsRead more. Stairs are a bit scary-wooden open slats. Lounge and back yard underwhelming and let this cottage down-in urgent need of a makeover. Hide

Stunning location, very well equipped, we didn't have any trouble with the stairs like many have said. We found everything we needed there and the shower was lovely. Cozy and warm.
