A welcoming, ground-floor apartment in the village of Appledore, an ideal choice for couples in search of a peaceful getaway by the sea. Enjoying a convenient location just a stone’s throw from the bustling quayside, you’ll find an array of independent shops, galleries, pubs, and eateries right on your doorstep. From here, book a fishing or boat trip to explore the magnificent coastline. Westward Ho!, home to 2 miles of golden sandy beach is 3 miles away – perfect for surfing, bodyboarding, or simply enjoying traditional seaside amusements. Enjoy visiting local highlights including the cobbled streets of Clovelly, RHS Rosemoor Gardens, and Tapeley Park, all within 14 miles. You can also spot the charming estuary village of Instow across the river from the quayside. A seasonal passenger ferry (running from Easter to the end of October) offers a scenic way to explore both sides of the River Torridge, or alternatively, it’s a 5-mile drive.

Return to this lovely retreat after afternoons on the beach and evenings watching the sun set over the sea. Enter into the main house via the shared front door, shared only with the owners. Step in through your own front door and into the lounge with a stone fireplace housing a wood burner, comfy seating, and a Smart TV. Head up three steps to the kitchen which is well equipped to cook a delicious breakfast, or a light snack. A door leads out from here to the conservatory which has a stylish table and chairs set, here you can enjoy your breakfast, or morning coffee while planning your day ahead. Completing the accommodation is a beautiful double bedroom with an en-suite shower room.

Just outside the conservatory is a rear enclosed shared courtyard with external steps heading up to the raised private terrace. Relax on the sun lounger or lovely seating with your favourite book, or enjoy a spot of al fresco dining with the charcoal BBQ. Please note, the owners occasionally pass through the courtyard to access their utility room/outbuilding, but aim to do this while guests are out to ensure privacy. There is roadside parking nearby subject to availability or alternatively a public pay and display car park close by.
