This is the special setting for Sea Cottage, the white cottage in this photograph.
There is such a stylish but cosy interior at this cottage, with the bonus of a wood-burning stove for out-of-season holidays here.
The main bedroom with its comfortable bed and pretty furnishings. This room looks out over the Tarka Trail.
The galley-style kitchen is extremely well-equipped and leads through into the main living-area.
The pretty garden is fully enclosed with view to enjoy.
Walk out the front door and on to the beach or follow the coast path.

Sea Cottage is tucked away in the sand dunes to the left of this photograph of Instow.
The passenger ferry will take you from Appledore to Instow during the summer months.
The Instow Cricket Club is a stone's throw from the cottage. This must be the best location to watch a summer match!
Woolacombe is one of many stunning north coast beaches.
This is the seemingly endless beach at nearby Saunton Sands.
Charming Clovelly is a short car journey away.
Sit by the harbour at Clovelly and take in the lovely view of the village.

This was probably the best cottage we have stayed at. Immaculate, well stocked, well dressed. The position was great and communication with the owner was great too. I'd give 11/10 if I could

Lovely well decorated cottage in a secluded spot with everything you could need for a holiday. It as a nice private garden to relax in during the day or have your meal and drinks in the evening. We walked into Instow every morning along the beach chatting to the locals who are all very friendly. The pubs and cafes in the area are all dog friendly and all very good, our favourite pub was the Quay Inn which the locals seem to use, try the Stans cider with a slice of orange! It’s a local thing. You can also walk or cycle along the Tarka trail straight from the cottage which goes for miles in each direction. If the weather’s not to good the cottage as a TV and good Wi-Fi reception. The cottage is also right next to Instow cricket pitch so if that’s your thing you could sit and watch a match. We had a very relaxing week at Sea Cottage and would love to return.
