Property code: OC-ROCKRO

Attractive cottage, recently refurbished with stunning views. This light modern and bright cottage is ideal for a family seaside break or romantic couple’s holiday. Set in the popular fishing village of Appledore, less than half a mile from the quayside, the property sits close to an eclectic mix of family-friendly pubs, cafés, shops and craft galleries. Famous for its narrow, colourful streets, Appledore plays host to a number of exciting festivals and cultural events throughout the year. During the summer season, the local brass band entertains crowds on the quay, and a small foot ferry takes passengers across the estuary to Instow beach and village. For an exciting family day out, visit local attractions such as The BIG Sheep (4 miles) and The Milky Way (11.3 miles). If you’re keen to check out the local waves, the surfing beach of Westward Ho! is just 2.4 miles from the cottage. Further afield, you can explore the towns of Bideford (3.7 miles) and Barnstaple (11 miles).

There is a small step up to the front door to the cottage. The main entrance hallway then takes you to the dining room, which has a sociable table seating up to six people. There is an open-plan kitchen with plenty of space to prepare and cook a delicious family meal, and the adjoining living area is a calming place to relax and enjoy the view from the floor-to-ceiling windows. French doors open out to a Juliet balcony with sea views. From the hallway, the staircase leads up to two bedrooms and a bathroom. From the living room, a modern staircase leads down to the lower ground floor, comprising a double bedroom with an en-suite shower room. On this floor you have a room housing the washing machine.  French doors from the bedroom lead outside to the garden area.

The cottage benefits from an attractive courtyard garden with a raised decked area and fabulous views of the estuary. Take a seat at the garden table to enjoy morning coffee, al fresco dining or evening drinks.

We absolutely loved this cottage. It was immaculately clean and very well equipped. Everything is present for a fabulous break. It is warm on the cold evenings and has a well equipped kitchen for cooks like myself. The views are spectacular and it is very quiet and peaceful. I was fishing from the terrace on 6 days of our stay of 7. We will be backRead more again. I would enthusiastically recommend it to anyone but I don't want them to know about it!! Hide

Although the web site gives a very honest, clear and detailed description of both the cottage and the facilities offered, we found that in all areas the real thing exceeded our expectations in every way. Not only were all our needs catered for, but the whole experience was idyllic. We look forward to visiting again.
