This property is situated at the heart of the attractive village of Instow, which is found on the estuary of the rivers Torridge and Taw. The estuary beach is a family-friendly stretch of sand, backed by sand dunes which make a lovely place for an afternoon walk. In summer, a ferry runs across the estuary to the pretty fishing village of Appledore, where numerous pleasure craft offer scenic boat trips. The town of Bideford is just four miles down-river from Instow, offering a range of shops and eateries, and for those who are feeling energetic, it is possible to enjoy a riverside walk to Bideford directly from the property.

Entering directly into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner on the ground floor of the property, guests will immediately get a sense of the owner’s sense of style, which has created a calming and restful atmosphere throughout the cottage. The lounge/diner to the front of this space offers two comfortable sofas, and an extendable dining table, as well as feature fireplace with wood burner-effect electric fire, and TV/DVD. Beyond the lounge/diner, the kitchen has an oven, hob, microwave, and fridge with ice compartment, beyond which a utility room houses the washer/dryer and leads out to the courtyard garden. Open-tread, steep, wooden stairs lead to the first-floor accommodation, where there are two bedrooms: a spacious double room with a pretty feature fireplace, and an attractive single room. The bathroom has a smaller-sized shower-over-bath, whilst there is a separate WC on the ground floor.

Outside, there is a charming narrow courtyard patio to the rear of the property, offering a sheltered place to sit with a quiet relaxing drink.
