Mariners' Cottage is a cosy beamed fisherman's cottage in a sought after position in Irsha Street in West Appledore. It is wonderfully situated on the sea wall with glorious views over the wide and ever changing Torridge Estuary, with its fishing and sailing boats and extensive birdlife. Hear the roaring of the Atlantic breakers, the ripple of the tide lapping the sea wall and the call of the gulls; watch the sun setting into the ocean; stroll along the quaint quayside with its welcoming shops and indulge in a Devon cream tea; relax in one of the waterside pubs, well known for their excellent food, just two minutes walk from the Cottage.
Explore the rock pools, 'crab' over the garden wall, or visit the long golden sandy beach 1 mile away for swimming, surfing and sandcastles. Bike along the Tarka Trail, take a picnic along the North Devon coastal path or play a round of golf at the oldest links course in the country or just lounge in the garden and watch the boats and birds go by!
Come and escape to this beautiful and unspoilt part of England and relax .
