This pretty first floor apartment is located in the traditional fishing village of Appledore, situated on the estuary of the River Torridge, offering a wonderful base for a restful break.

This delightful apartment is located in the centre of this pretty fishing village which still has a thriving community of fishermen, as is evidenced by the boats bobbing in the attractive village quay.

The village quay, too, is just a short walk away, and in the summer months a ferry runs across the estuary to the neighbouring village of Instow where visitors will find a yacht club and beach. Just two miles from the property, Westward Ho! Boasts a beautiful sandy beach.

Entering the apartment on the ground floor you go up the staircase and enter onto the first floor landing with the lounge to your right with comfy sofas, Smart TV and feature fireplace, this is the perfect place to relax after a busy day exploring. The open-plan kitchen/diner is bright, airy and well-equipped with electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, slimline dishwasher and washer/dryer. The table and chairs offer easy dining and a great spot to plan your next days adventure. Off the kitchen is a bathroom with shower over bath and WC. Heading back to the landing a further staircase leads up to the second floor, where you will find the two bedrooms one double and one twin both having exposed beams.

There is no outside space with this apartment, but you can pull up directly outside to load and unload, before parking roadside or in the nearby public car parks.

Just enjoyed a wonderful week at Sea Chest Cottage on Market Street in Appledore from 19-25 August 2024. The village is delightful and its evidently got a really vibrant heart in summer. Local food & drink options are excellent and Irsha Street is well worth a stroll. Instow & Bideford are lovely and Exmoor is just on your doorstep so whats not to Read morelike? Lynton/mouth just over an hours drive and Watersmeet is another lovely stroll. Great fish & chips at Sylvesters are well worth the queue! X Hide

This apartment is lovely, much better than we expected. The photos do not do it justice! The owners clearly take pride in making sure their property is a lovely place to stay. The location is perfect - right in the centre of the town yet also very quiet. Perfect for that getaway for couples or a family of 4.

Immaculately decorated, clean, cosy little apartment. Ideally situated for the quay and good eating out options. (We particularly enjoyed The Yard). Slept so well all week as it was so peaceful. Although there is no parking we had no problem unloading the van , then parking in the quayside public car park, for the week. Lots of essentials, e.g. teaRead more, sugar, were helpfully provided.
