Some of North Devon’s most scenic beaches await within reach of this marvellous country cottage, an abode that’s located between Barnstaple (3 miles) and Instow (4 miles). Offering all kinds of adventures from coastal walks to nature reserve bike rides and excursions on the water, you’ll never fall short of things to do when staying here. The property enjoys an excellent vantage point with waterside views out over the River Taw from its first-floor bedroom, a great place to stay as a pair on a romance-seeking retreat. It’s also dog friendly with a generous garden, ideal for canine-loving couples to fill their days with unforgettable North Devon dog walks.
Contemporary stylings meet creature comforts in this home-from-home property that’s set out over two floors. Leave coats and boots on the porch before settling down in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Exposed beams overhead and a wood burner in the corner add a cosy cottage ambience to this room, best enjoyed when cooking up delicious dishes in the kitchen, dining at the table or curling up in front of the Smart TV. When the weather is agreeable, prepare to step outside to make use of the garden with outdoor seating and a wood-fired hot tub. Take a dip before returning inside to relax in the super-king-size bedroom on a mezzanine floor above the lounge.
Separated by the River Torridge, the neighbouring villages of Instow and Appledore (5 miles on foot, 9 miles by car) are well worth a visit with the passenger ferry allowing access between one another during the summer season. Beyond Appledore is the ever-popular destination of Westward Ho! (9 miles), a tourist-centred village with an exceptional beach backed by a vibrant country park. Keen golfers will love visiting The Royal North Devon Golf Club (8.5 miles) and teeing off right there.

This cottage is fantastic & the host made sure that we enjoyed our stay. The cottage was spotlessly clean & well appointed. The hot tub was brilliant little extra too. It is in close proximity to The Tarka Trail with a bike hire shop within walking distance & only a 5 -10 minute drive from major supermarkets (depending on traffic). The whole property is super dog friendly with a COMPLETELY enclosed, generously sized garden which helped make our stay even more enjoyable knowing that if we opened the door to let our pup out, there was no way that she was going to be able to escape. We have already recommended The Tack Room to friends who are looking to stay in the Devon area
Mrs Wilding
A wonderfully luxurious cottage. Would not hesitate to recommend.
Mrs Harper
The property is off the beaten track, so you get peace and tranquility but also near enough to the main road to explore Devon. You step out of the property and are already on walks with your dog. Absolutely marvellous and highly recommend. So much so that I didn’t want to leave.
