The cottage is lovely and characterful, with everything you need. The rooms are clean and beds comfortable. The views - even in overcast February - are fantastic and the location couldn't be bettered. Just a short walk to the quay and shops. As other reviews mention, the stairs are quite steep so just something to consider for young children and the elderly. Communication with Stephanie was quick, friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend. ##### Colette R.

Other Reviews were accurate. Lovely clean, comfy property. Only downside was the toilet downstairs. The stairs are really creeky, especially in the middle of the night. The property has a wash room outside. Which was perfect for drying wet towels and wetsuits. Having breakfast with an amazing view was perfect. Would recommend ##### Deborah V. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tara L. 3 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely cottage with fantastic views. This cottage is lovely, set over two floors, with fantastic views over the estuary. The downstairs has a lounge area when you first come in the door, with a fold up bed if you have a sixth person (child) in your group. The stairs and a short hallway are next, with a twin bedroom and then the kitchen. There is also a table and chairs in the kitchen which we used for our meals, although there is also another dining table and chairs in the front lounge. The kitchen window looks out to the back garden and estuary. There is another door from the kitchen to the bathroom and toilet. The shower is fantastic. Quite a large walk in shower. The kitchen also has the back door that leads to a lovely little garden with lots of flowering shrubs and daisy type plants. There is a little wrought iron table and chairs, where you can sit and enjoy the view, which we did regularly. From the garden, you could also access a utility type room that also had a second toilet. Upstairs there is another lounge with fabulous views over the Estuary. We rarely used it as we sat outside, but this would be brilliant in cold weather to still see the sea. There was also a large double bedroom and a small single room upstairs. The only downside to this cottage is the lack of a toilet upstairs. It's a long way to the loo in the night and the stairs do creak! Too be honest, I would probably put the twin room upstairs, and have the double room downstairs, so you don't need to go up once the kids are in bed. The car park is a short walk away, and you can park outside the cottage to load and unload everything. It is also a short walk to two pubs. You can also get down on to a rocky beach area here to go rock pooling when the tide is out, which we did with the kids. It is just a little further to the main Quay, which is where you find a few shops. We also spent some time crabbing along here when the tide was in, as did many other families. You are also a short drive from Westward Ho! And a lovely sandy beach. The whole process to rent the cottage was simple. I had a question, that was answered really quickly. I was also sent a message detailing everything I needed to know. The cottage also had information and instruction manuals if needed. Whilst there, I had a question for the owner and I received a response immediately. Overall this was a fantastic place and we had a wonderful holiday. We would stay here again. ##### Tara L.

We spent most of our time there. The cottage is very traditionally furnished and comfortable.There are two brilliant pubs within five minutes walk serving excellent food. Appledore itself is a delightful, large village with plenty of amenities. Highly recommend ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Lesley D. 12 Jun 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cottage with Great View in Appledore We had a nice week in Appledore, the view out of the upstairs lounge window and courtyard garden downstairs are definitely what sells this property as a relaxing holiday destination. The stairs are definitely steep with only one handrail, which for elderly or anyone with mobility problems is a real problem. The beds had no extra blankets and at nights it was cold and the quilts aren't that thick, so take extra blankets if you feel the cold. Overall a good week away, except for tired in general - furnishings and equipment. On the plus side communication with the owner was very responsive. ##### Lesley D.

It’s a couple of minutes walk to the shoreline and the same the other way to 2 brilliant pubs. The village is about a 10 minute walk, where there are a couple of other pubs, a couple of restaurants and a few takeaways. Communication with owner was very good and easy check-in. Westward Ho was a little too far for us to walk to with the dog (weather was very hot) but it was only a short easy drive. ##### Neil T.

Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### marie g. 4 Jul 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful view of the estuary Stay in an old cottage in Irsha Street on the estuary. Very clever to have the lounge upstairs, room with a view! Cottage is well equipped. The patio more sunny than I expected as far away enough from the house and the river /sea views are stunning, always changing. Lovely area if you like nature and going for walks. I would not get the cottage with young children because of the stairs and seawall, but ideal for older children and adults. We slept downstairs, dark and quiet room, as toilet is downstairs no need to get up and down the steep stairs at night which makes the house suitable for older people as well. ##### marie g.

Comfortable & clean. Lovely surprise of a bottle of wine on arrival. The patio & views from the rear were an absolute joy. Only one thing I would change and that is to have some sort of carpet tread on the stairs. Tended to be a little slippery. ##### Catherine C.
