This was our first family holiday taking the dog with us - it was truly wonderful from start to finish!! The cottage is amazing, it felt so home like and plenty of room for us all.

It is a lovely cottage central to everything in beautiful Appledore and all it dog friendly restaurants and pubs and shops. It was great being 1 minute from seeing the river in the morning. We got a parking permit for the car park at the back of the cottage and always got a space. The stairs are very very steep. I only given 4 stars because of the stairs....
