Hideaway

This delightful character accommodation is tucked away in a quiet location yet only a few minutes’ walk to the Quay and a choice of individual shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants.  This unique cottage has been sympathetically restored and offers spacious living that is furnished in a modern contemporary style while retaining much of the original character. On the ground floor there is a utility area with ample storage space and a large shower room which is attractively tiled and a walk in shower. Stairs lead up to a very spacious open plan living/dining room with a high quality kitchen.  Feature stone walls and a high apex ceiling with crossbeams gives drama to this comfortable living space which is ideal for enjoying time with family and friends.  Two bedrooms offer flexible sleeping and there is a convenient cloakroom with WC also on the first floor. Hideaway is conveniently located close to all village amenities and the Quay is a great place to enjoy the views across the Torridge Estuary to the popular beach and watersports centre of Instow( there is a small walk on ferry across the river in season). Appledore has a long Maritime history and most village activities happen around the Quay, Here you can relax taking in the picturesque scene as boats gently bob up and down on the ebb and flow of the tide and kite surfers and canoeing enthusiasts enjoy this wonderful environment. There are great places to eat and enjoy a drink along the waterfront whilst narrow lanes lead off the Quay and are full of colourful fisherman’s cottages, craft shops, art galleries and antique shops. Further afield Westward Ho! with its pebble ridged back surfing beach and the Northam Burrows Park are just a 10 minute drive and there is easy access to the spectacular rugged coastline running west towards Clovelly and onto Cornwall.
