Dot’s cottage is situated mid-way down Bridge Lane, a quiet road with little passing traffic leading down to the waterfront. On entering the front door there is a roomy lobby with plenty of hanging space for coats, as well as storage for hats, gloves, shoes etc. The lobby opens into a bright, newly furnished living room which has a dining area at one end. Both areas offer clean, modern, functional living space. From the living room you enter the sunny kitchen which is well equipped with a breakfast table, brand new appliances and views out onto the pretty cottage garden, stocked with flowers and shrubs. The kitchen door allows access into the garden, at the end of which there is a lockable shed for storage. There is a bbq and garden furniture, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful location. From the front lobby the stairs lead up to the main bedroom which has plenty of clothes storage and allows spectacular views of the estuary. The second bedroom, like the first, has a king-size bed, with the added attraction of an en-suite toilet and washbasin. The third bedroom has spacious, adult-size bunk beds. On the landing there is a large integral cupboard which provides ample storage. The family bathroom is light and sunny with an l-shaped bath and shower. The property has free wi-fi access, a mains supply smoke alarm and a brand new heating system. Dot's Cottage does not have off street parking but the village car park is 100 meters away plus there is street parking at both ends of Bridge Lane. We are sorry but we don't allow pets or smoking.

It is lovely to be able to share Dot's Cottage with you in the hope that you will enjoy North Devon as much as we do. Although my husband and I now live in the Midlands, we head back to our roots as often as we can. Instow is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a slower pace of life, making the most of the various water sports, golf courses and beautiful coastal walks.

Instow is spoilt for choice with four fantastic pubs (all serving good food), as well as an amazing deli/ coffee shop a stone's throw from the cottage. The Tarka Trail runs through the village, providing the perfect walking/cycling route. There are numerous beaches all within a short drive, as well as Exmoor National park. The market towns of Barnstaple and Bideford are worth a visit, and the nearby village of Clovelly is a big attraction for summer visitors.
