Lovely comfortable cottage in a lovely area.

Do come to Appledore and stay in Poachers Cottage if you want a sophisticated setting. There are lots of places to eat out, virtually on the doorstep. Its also a good place to use as a base and venture elsewhere. I would recommend a trip to Clovelly which is also breathtaking. Appledore is very dog friendly so if you have pooches, they will love it too. The locals are very friendly and welcoming which is always nice. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Sue...

Better quality mattresses would have made it a perfect week! ...

We loved our stay in Poachers Cottage, from the moment we arrived to the moment we left it was pure relaxation. The cottage is quirky but lovely and is a stone's throw away from some fantastic pubs. Appledore itself is gorgeous - lovely park for the children, great crabbing on the promenade - amazing coffee from the Coffee Cabin. We didn't want to come home!! ...
