Lovely little cottage with everything we needed for a relaxing week in North Devon. Beds are very comfy and it was ideally located for a stroll along the Tarka Trail. Although there is no direct access from the cottage onto the wide sandy beach, it’s only a couple of minutes’ walk away. Instow itself is pretty, with four pubs, a good quality deli/cafe (the cream tea and raspberry cheesecake chocolate brownie were both delicious) and a couple of vans for local ice cream. There’s also a small cafe selling seafood and possibly a post office at the other end of the village. Not much else other than the yacht club and cricket club (which saw activity every day we were there). There is a lot to do in the area and many lovely places to visit, so we drove around quite a lot. Big Sheep was great for kids. We hope to return!...
