This is the lovely setting for Tydemans Cottage - at the heart of the historic fishing village of Appledore.
There is a wonderfully cosy sitting-room with French windows out to the patio and garden.
The large kitchen/dining-room - fully equipped and a true home-from-home.
Just to the right of the courtyard are steps up to a little lawned garden - quite a bonus for a cottage in Appledore.
Steps lead up from the courtyard to this lovely fully enclosed garden.
This is such a great place to stay whatever the time of year.
You step into this lovely kitchen with its welcoming farmhouse kitchen table, the door at the far end also opens to the courtyard patio.
Enjoy using the range cooker - though there are plenty of pubs for good food within walking distance if you feel like a treat.
The master bedroom is beautifully designed with calm colours and a very comfortable bed. The en suite shower-room is to the right of the room.
The bedroom has its original Victorian cast iron fireplace as a pretty feature.
Everywhere you look there are cheerful details to welcome you to this lovely coastal cottage.
You will be tempted to have some long lie ins before setting off to explore.
This is the large shower in the en suite shower-room of the master bedroom.
Another view of the en suite shower-room.
More cheerful and welcoming details!
This bedroom is at the front of the cottage - another very comfortable bed with gorgeous bed linens.
The bedroom looks out over the little pedestrian lane that takes you up to the cottage.
Another pretty ornamental original fireplace.
This is the third bedroom overlooking the garden at the back of the cottage. This bedroom can be made up as twins at your request.
All the fabrics and furnishings have been chosen with real care.
Children will love spotting all the little details.
This is the family bathroom on the first floor, offering a bath as well as the fitted shower.
Thick fluffy towels are an extra treat here.
This says it all !
Tydemans Cottage is in fact two cottages converted skilfully into one. This is the view from the back of the fully enclosed garden. A small flight of steps lead up from the courtyard-area.
Enjoy your stay in this gorgeous cottage.
John's Deli has a shop in both Appledore and Instow. The Appledore shop also has a lovely cafe. Why not order a picnic hamper for your day on the beach?
Take the seasonal passenger ferry across to Instow where there are miles of sandy beach to walk along at low tide.
Bideford Quay - you can take a boat trip to Lundy Island to see the birdlife.
Beautiful Appledore.
Charming Clovelly is a short car journey away.
The harbour at Clovelly is a delight.
Have a day of adventure at North Devon Wake Park where you can wakeboard, paddle board or enjoy the giant aquapark!

We loved Appledore and the location of the cottage was fantastic for access to all of the local cafes, restaurants, pubs and shops. The Flame Factory, the Yard and the Coffee Cabin were three of our favourite places to eat. The beds were extremely comfortable and it was great having the ensuite and separate bathroom as there were five adults in our party. Both lounge and kitchen were very spacious and well equipped. We used the courtyard quite a bit but not the garden. So many lovely places to visit locally and we enjoyed finding different beaches - Westward Ho, Saunton Sands, Croyde etc. Ilfracombe also worth a visit but not for the beach. However, wasn't that impressed with Bideford. Clovelly is a must but be ready for lots of steep hills! The only down side to the cottage is the parking as, in high season, it can be difficult to get a space in Appledore and it's a long way to transport your luggage on arrival and when leaving, although we did manage to find a sneaky drop off point. Obviously you get the luxury though of having no cars passing by. All in all a wonderful holiday in a lovely cottage in a great part of the country! ...

Appledore is a good place for eating out and a base for visiting other areas for tradtional sea side activities.

Beautiful decorated and comfortable cottage in a really lovely setting. The weather was fantastic, which added to the enjoyment of our break. Really good base to visit lots of sights of North Devon, including Clovelly and Croyde. Appledore has some lovely cafes and restaurants and shops to explore. Very relaxing holiday. ...

Tucked away in a quiet street but a couple of seconds from the seafront makes a perfect location. An immaculate cottage that's had ample space for 6 adults. High quality furnishings and equipment. Couldn't of asked for more
Mrs Owen July 2022
Beautifully furnished house to a very high standard. Well equipped kitchen making cooking meals very easy. All mod cons. Very comfortable beds. Fabulous shower. Loved staying here. Quiet location along pretty narrow streets. Had to park car in public carpark and pay for the weeks stay which was £16. No problem though and it seemed very safe left there. A nice 5 min walk along the Quay to get there. Loved getting up early and walking along the Quay and estuary. Plenty to do within a short drive. John's deli round the corner from the house is excellent! Loved Appledore and will definitely stay here again. ...
