The Cottage is a traditional Devon cottage hidden away in a tranquil rural location. It has a large enclosed garden.
The sitting-room with the inglenook fireplace is at the heart of the cottage.
French windows lead from the kitchen/breakfast-room straight out into the large garden.
All the bedrooms are on the first floor. This is the master bedroom which looks out over the neighbouring orchard.
The galley-style kitchen has a utility-room - also home to the electric cooker - and shower-room at the far end.
There is so much space for children and four legged friends - all are so welcome here.
There is also a Rayburn for lovely background warmth - and of course for cooking.
There is plenty of comfortable seating for all guests.
A separate dining-room is accessed off the sitting-room. Again, plenty of seating for all.
There is plenty of storage space in the bedroom.
A  second double bedroom also looks out over an orchard.
Another view of this bedroom.
The twin bedroom has plenty of space.
All the bedrooms are off a lovely wide landing.
There are some lovely welcoming touches in this cottage.
The single bedroom looks out over the large garden and across the fields beyond it.
As well as the shower-room downstairs there is a large family bathroom on the first floor.
A five-bar wooden gate encloses the parking-area in front of the cottage.
We all hope that you will be able to relax as soon as you arrive.
This is the view from the fully enclosed garden.
Take the passenger ferry from Bideford Quay to Lundy Island which runs during the summer months.
North Devon offers a wonderful coastline of rugged cliffs, harbours and seaside villages. This image is looking across at Instow from Appledore. Instow's beach is dog-friendly all year round.

A visit to pretty Clovelly should be on your list of things to do.

This property is delightful. A lot of thought has gone into the set up and equipping of it. Sadly we had a lot of rain but the facilities for good weather are fantastic.

Fantastic property for 2 families with a dog to share. The paddock for outdoor activities for kids and the dog was a real bonus. This cottage is very well equipped and the games room & garden games (swing ball) were a real bonus! Very comfortable. And plenty of different areas for all ages to enjoy. ...

A beautiful countryside cottage equipped with everything we needed. The lovely woodland style enclosed and secure garden was perfect for our dogs, as was the adjoining paddock area. Now on our list of favourite cottages and highly recommended!
