Property code: OC-SPINNA

Families will have all they need at this contemporary, well-equipped apartment that overlooks the scenic estuary, where the Taw and Torridge rivers combine, in Instow on the North Devon Coast. Visit the boat-dotted waterfront for more lovely rural views, all the way over to Appledore - another picturesque village, which you can catch the ferry to during summer. Instow boasts great restaurants and pubs with estuary views serving local seafood and it has its very own beach (0.5 miles) where you can build sandcastles or try out kitesurfing. Hop to other bays surrounding, including surfer spot Saunton Sands (13 miles), and don’t forget your walking boots as the Tarka Trail is just below the apartment on which you can wander miles of flat paths with great views.

Access this first-floor apartment via steps (no lift available). In the entrance hall, you’ll find space to store your shoes and coats before heading into the spacious, open-plan living area that flows with stylish, muted colours. Cook in the big, modern kitchen, share family meals at the dining table and relax in the lounge featuring a TV, seating with comfy cushions and French doors to the balcony that flood the room with natural light. On the same floor, there’s a twin and a double bedroom, both with wall-mounted TVs at the end of the bed and homely extras like bedside lamps. The bathroom features a walk-in shower.

Enjoy some outdoor relaxation on your private balcony with a bistro table and chairs, perfect for sunset drinks or morning coffees as you overlook the estuary. Find further outdoor spaces - paved and grass communal areas - at the front and back of the property.

We've stayed in a number of properties in Chandlers Court. They all tick the boxes for balcony, car parking, pub, deli, walks, cycling and beach, and most have a great view. On top of that, Spinnaker is very well finished in terms of comfort, taste, and equipment.

We loved Instow what a gem, Spinnaker apartment was just a short walk to pubs and deli and all on the flat. Apartment was well equipped, clean, comfortable and quiet. Theres not a lot in Instow but thats what we wanted and you could drive places if you wanted anything. Excellent food in all the pubs and restaurant but would recommend booking a tRead moreable as they get busy. Johns Deli is worth a visit. Beach is fab and loads of benches to sit on to eat your ice cream and watch the world go by. We will definitely be back, Hide
