Cottage in North Devon

Holiday Rental Description

This property is situated off a pedestrian walkway, just a short walk away from the centre of the pretty fishing village of Appledore, which itself is situated on the estuary of the rivers Torridge and Taw, and makes an idyllic place for a relaxing holiday. Visitors can wander the narrow streets, browse the shops, sample the local seafood in the village s bistros and pubs, and watch the fishing boats bob in the attractive quay, all within a few minutes walk of the cottage. For a change of scenery, there is a seasonal ferry which runs across the estuary to the neighbouring village of Instow, where there is a sand and shingle beach. On opening the front door to this attractive 17th century property, four steps down bring guests to the relaxing lounge/diner with its beamed ceiling, fireplace with living flame fire, TV, and hi fi. There is a dining table seating four, beyond which a door leads through to the kitchen: with an electric oven, hob, microwave, and fridge with ice compartment. The property s bathroom is also located on the ground floor and offers a shower over bath and WC. Stairs from the lounge/diner lead to a galleried landing, off from which there are two bedrooms. The first of these is an attractive double room with bedside tables and a dressing table, whilst the second bedroom is a bunk bedroom. Outside, the property benefits from an enclosed courtyard patio located adjacent to the property, which has a BBQ and garden furniture, allowing guests to enjoy al fresco meals. Guests should note that there is a covered pond in the garden, and therefore children will need careful supervision.
