Cockle Cottage

Appledore, Devon

NEW FOR 2012

Character Fishermans Cottage sleeping 6 + travel cot

Within 100 yds of the waterfront and close to all village amenities

The cottage nestles in one of the oldest streets of the picturesque fishing village of Appledore and is surrounded by colour washed cottages. With no vehicular access, this part of the village has great charm with character pubs serving excellent food, art galleries, restaurants, chandlers and interesting shops all within the surrounding narrow lanes. This 'little white village' is steeped in maritime history, with fishing boats still regularly unloading their catch, and fishing trips frequently available on the quay. Seats along the quayside offer an opportunity to relax and view the activities whilst taking in the beautiful estuary views towards Instow. A regular ferry service from Appledore across the estuary to the beach and watersports centre of Instow  is available in season and the historic Elizabethan port of Bideford and surfing beach of Westward Ho! are both within a 10 minute drive.

The cottage has great charm, retains much of its original character and is very comfortably furnished throughout with gas central heating making it a cosy base for all seasons. Three attractive bedrooms with rugs on original wooden floors - spacious double with fitted wardrobe on the first floor and two twin bedded rooms (one with estuary glimpses) on the second floor accessed by a curved staircase with low headroom. Large bathroom/wc on the first floor with shower over bath. Cosy beamed living room with woodburner in feature fireplace and TV/ DVD/ CD player. Separate dining room with hatch to fully fitted kitchen with electric hob and oven, microwave and washing machine.
