    An excellent cottage in a terrific setting, with easy access to a variety of good local pubs and an impressive village shop/deli. The area is ideal for walkers. Instow is a calm and relaxing place, just a ferry ride from Appledore, and with things to see and do in every direction.

    Property, facilities and hosts Edward and Lucinda were only overshadowed by the superb location overlooking the river Torridge. The Old School Room is rated top of the class in our opinion.
