Instow, Devon - Sleeps 10

Accommodation details

Within walking distance of the quiet beach and rolling sand dunes of Instow, this charming five-bedroom property is ideal for large families or groups of friends seeking a luxurious base from which to explore the delights of the North Devon coast. Stroll along to one of the village's friendly pubs for an early evening drink as the sun sets across the estuary, pick up some local produce in the renowned delicatessen or enjoy a leisurely meal in one of the seafront eateries.

Catch the local ferry across the water to picturesque Appledore for crabbing competitions off the quayside or hop in the saddle for a cycle ride along the Tarka Trail. Lace up your walking boots and discover sheltered bays and quiet coves along the South West Coast Path. Enjoying an elevated position with spectacular water views from many of the rooms, your seaside sanctuary features brightly decorated rooms and quirky soft furnishings.

Bold colours and interesting artwork create a stylish living room where you can curl up on one of the cushion-covered sofas after a day exploring the North Devon countryside. Polished wooden floorboards gleam in the sunlight that pours through the patio doors overlooking the river. The elegant kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare hearty breakfasts and celebratory meals.

Nestled into the window, you can dine with a view at the elegant table that comfortably seats all guests. The ground floor wet room is ideal for freshening up after a day on the beach and the drying room with wetsuit rail makes drying out coats and shoes a breeze. Head upstairs to the five well-appointed bedrooms.

A super king-size and a king-size bedroom both enjoy en-suite shower rooms and benefit from views across the river. You will also find a comfortable twin room. Up further stairs, you will find the second-floor twin bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a double with an en-suite shower. Outside, spend the evening in the lovely rear garden, light the fire-pit on cooler evenings or enjoy a sociable BBQ as the sun goes down.
