Really enjoyed our time at Beach View. Absolutely perfect for our family. Relaxing, wonderful location and a well equipped home. We would love to come back to Appledore and explore further. We usually have breaks in Instow but tried Appledore for a change and are pleased we did.

We had a lovely stay in Beach View Cottage, perfect location. Stanley ( our dog ) loved the raised decking area, from where he had a lovely view across the estuary to Instow. The garden is secure. Kitchen well equipped. Many dog friendly pubs and beaches near by.

We had a lovely holiday and enjoyed the cottage and the roomy space it provided. We found the stairs steep a little steep but learned to descend backwards which wasn't an issue and the equipment and extra touches like lots of toilet rolls, towels, tea & coffee and washing up and cleaning products good.

Lovely cottage, fantastic location and absolutely amazing view from the decking. The decor, furnishings and cleanliness were absolutely top draw. Only reason its not 5 star all round was we had some issues with the coffee machine which had a small explosion!! and on a couple of occasion we had some parking issues and had to park a small distance awRead moreay but unloading when we first arrived was no problem at all. A tiny gem in a beautiful location. thanks. Hide
