This beautiful seaside cottage is perfectly located within the quaint and colourful fishing village of Appledore with it's pubs, restaurants, galleries and cafes all within walking distance.  Fancy an extended walk? Then join the South West Coast Path, accessible from right outside your door. However, if you want to stay within the realms of the village then you can tuck into some delicious pub grub as little as 300 metres down the road.  Across the estuary is the neighbouring beachside village of Instow, a dog walking haven that is a 6-mile drive or a short ferry ride away. The shoreline in Appledore, with its rock pools and sandy stretches are just a stroll away from the cottage. Family attractions like The Big Sheep, The Milky Way, Dartington Crystal and RHS Rosemoor are all within easy reach.

Inside the cottage, the soft pastel marine tones create a beach hut feel and serve as a real reminder that you are staying at the seaside. The large, original windows at the front of the property draw in plenty of natural light, giving the whole house a bright and airy ambience. A contemporary and well equipped kitchen joins onto the dining room offering more than enough space to cook and even more to serve up dinner with all the family. This lovely cottage is spread over three floors and offers three good sized bedrooms for six people. Cottage style steep stairs lead you to the first floor where there is a king-size bedroom with both sea and estuary views; there is also a twin bedroom on this floor. On the second floor, there is one double bedroom again with magnificent sea and estuary views, as well as an en-suite shower and WC. A family bathroom can be found on the first floor, with shower over bath and WC. There is also a WC on the ground floor in the utility room, where there is a washer/dryer and a sink. The lounge offers a cosy wood burner, with the first basket of logs included, comfortable sofas, a Smart TV and DVD player.

Outside the kitchen bi-folding doors you will find a sunny south facing courtyard with an outdoor shower tap for mucky dogs or sandy toes and a seating area and BBQ. Bicycles, kayaks and surfboards can also be stored in the courtyard.

I can't recommend this property highly enough. It is cosy and well equipped, extremely well situated with the beach on 50 metres away and all the amenities of Appledore within easy walking distance. The only potential drawback is the lack of parking; we pre-purchased a 7 day parking permit so that we could use the nearby carpark but on many occasioRead morens were lucky in finding spaces on the street. We will certainly be making a return visit. Hide

Lovely property in a great position. Close to Appledore centre and all the great pubs and eateries etc. We went in early July and there was little opportunity to park outside of the property. Not a problem for us as we simply bought a weeks parking in the nearby carpark for 30. If you want to park outside you will have to compete with day trippers,Read more locals and people staying the length of irsha street. The sunsets across the estuary are stunning. We would certainly book again. Hide

This is our second stay in Mira Mare. We love the house and location and it has everything we need. It really is our home from home. The sunsets we were able to view from the house were just fantastic and Appledore has a good selection of eateries to choose from. All in a perfect place to stay.

Very spacious and comfortable accommodation. Great quiet location with fantastic views of estuary and lifeboat. We have stayed in several cottages in Appledore and this is definitely the best so far and certainly big enough for 6 people. All bedrooms a good size with room to move around. Downstairs very spacious and well equipped.

The showers/ toilets were clean. However, floors in the kitchen/ utility, skirtings, door handles, kitchen pans/ oven pans, backs of doors weren't clean. Lovely house, great location but could do with a spring clean. Felt like I was staying in an airbnb, in someone's house that they'd left for a few days rather than a holiday let house.

This was our second experience of holiday cottages..co. uk and we were very pleased with this accommodation. In a one-way street, near walks and town, its a very quiet spot (apart from the people walking by during daylight hours) with a glorious position to overlook the estuary all day and to watch the sunsets. As a family, we found everything we nRead moreeeded in terms of catering - cooking utensils and tableware - and we were able to cook and socialise at the same time, yet not feeling cramped.. Hide
