Great location for the amenities in Appledore, particularly The Royal George, which is a dozen steps from the front door. It has excellent food, service and views. Wonderful location for access to the surrounding area. Best food and beverage discoveries Hockings Ice Cream and Sandford Orchards Devon Red Cider. Lovely seafood dinner at The Boathouse, Instow. Our last meal of the holiday at the Beaver Inn Appledore, two minutes from the cottage, was extremely disappointing. We loved the quirkiness of the cottage, particularly the stairs and its location in a courtyard. Definitely a bonus that the front door didn't open out into the road, though the road is extremely quiet unless the great Mini parade is back in town. The cottage is well decorated with all amenities working 100%. The bed were very comfortable especially the pillows, which my 20-year-old son loved. Highly recommend the Poachers' Cottage....

We've just spent a week staying in Poacher's Cottage, Appledore and can certainly recommend this cottage if you are looking for a lovely, well presented, 2 bedroomed cottage in an easy accessible, quiet area of Appledore. Just yards from 2 very good pubs, both The Royal George and The Beaver serve very good food. Near to excellent sandy dog friendly beaches - what more could you want! ...
