These include exposed stone walls and feature barn doors with their beautiful curved RSJs which form part of each of the bedrooms and bathrooms.  The unusual RSJs were originally constructed at Appledore Shipyard, which gives the cottage its name. Appledore Barn accommodates up to 6 people, encompassing a Kingsize bedroom with ensuite shower room, a second bedroom with twin beds and ensuite bathroom, plus a sofa-bed in the living area. Both bedrooms have flat screen TVs, hand-painted furniture and comfortable mattresses. The beautiful light and airy open-plan living area is on the upper floor of the cottage and affords views over our fields and towards Exmoor. The fully-fitted kitchen provides you with all modern facilities including dishwasher, induction hob, split-level cooker, full-sized fridge freezer and microwave and leads on to a dining area with traditional farmhouse table.  Relax in the comfortable seating area in front of the cosy log burner in the sofa, chair and snuggle seat. There is a flat screen Smart HD TV with Freeview, Blueray DVD player, selection of DVDs and Bluetooth speaker as well as a variety of books, cookbooks, board games. leaflets for local attractions and local newspapers and magazines that might be of interest. The colour schemes have been designed to blend the earthy colours of the countryside with the calm blues of the ocean so that it creates a peaceful haven and escape from the world. Externally you have your own private patio area with gas BBQ, seating area and plenty of space to enjoy morning coffee or a glass of wine as you take in the views to the countryside beyond. Richard and I are happy amateurs attempting to work our 11 acres as a smallholding with the help of people who really know what they are doing including friends and neighbours.  We have discovered what neighbourliness and community really means since moving to this area and whether it's topping our fields and hedges or the impromptu present of a barn owl nesting box you really get that heart-warming feeling that we are all in it together.  We are happy to share what we have learned so far and on Thursdays and Fridays, our landsman Robin  will be happy to share his knowledge of our land and the broader area using his knowledge as a farmer, gardener and ex-National Trust warden. Currently we have a growing flock of sheep and Spring gives you the opportunity to join us in lambing, bottle-feeding lambs, shearing and rolling fleeces. Join us at feeding time for our micro pigs, Pinky and Perky.  Come in the pen and make sure that they have a satisfying scratch.  Help us collect eggs from our brood of hens in the morning and wonder at the straight backs of our Indian Runner Ducks and why they don't fall over backwards (apparently they can do!). Ducks, geese and a cheeky guinea fowl make up the rest of the contingent whilst you are guaranteed a warm welcome from our Sprocker puppy, Ruby.  Who knows what we might have added to the menagerie by the time you arrive! All of the cottages enjoy fantastic facilities, over and above the stunning location, buildings and views.

From the moment we arrived to a generous and delicious welcome hamper to the final meal we had at the Castle Inn, this was a fantastic holiday. We only have praise for the high quality of accommodation and the ‘nothing is too much’ attitude of Adele. We highly recommend this property if you want a beautiful and secluded part of Devon to relax in. ##### Dominic L. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2018 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### nadia g. 29 Oct 2017 #### Beautiful location & very friendly owners We stayed in Appledore cottage for 5 nights. We absolutely loved the cottage, it was so cosy, beautifully furnished and so well equipped. Adele & Richard really have thought of everything. We took the advantage of Adele’s cooking, and we weren’t disappointed. We thouroughly enjoyed homemade chicken curry & Eton mess cheesecake was to die for. The location of the cottages is set on top of a hill with lovely views. We ventured out every day. The nearby village of George Nympton has a really good pub , Castle Hill, where we stopped for a gorgeous Sunday roast. There are many walking and cycling routes nearby and we have tried few of them. We would recommend Lorna Doone Valley walk, that starts at County gate car park (EX35 6NQ) which takes about 5 miles but it is so picturesque. It will take you through coastal path, through fields and through the small Oare village , that was mentioned in a book Lorna Doone by RD Blackmore . There is also Cloud Farm where you can stop off for wonderful homemade scones with jam and Devon cream, and there is a Lorna Doone well stocked gift shop. We will definitely come back to explore more of Exmoor . Thank you Adele & Richard for a wonderful stay at your cottage. ##### nadia g.
