Westbeach Holiday Apartments

8/10 Good

"Excellent location , free parking , well equipped with every thing needed, & short walk to the beach, ,"

Instow Barton

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful dog friendly stay! The hosts are incredible and very friendly. The breakfast is plentiful, come hungry. The afternoon cake was a very nice and welcome touch. Ample parking as well, which can be a pain in Instow generally."

Durrant House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff very helpful and friendly. Good service. Hotel dated but overall stay was good."

Appledore Factory

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location and a lovely flat. The skylights make it feel really light and airy, with fantastic sea views. It was exactly what we needed for our mini break in Devon. We also had a meal at their restaurant downstairs, the Flame Factory, which was wonderful. The staff were absolutely fantastic and so warm and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!"

The Wayfarer Inn

8/10 Good

"Very nice room with sea view, unfortunately very steep stairs to get there and as suffering mobility issues, not the best, although staff were not aware. Breakfast excellent, and evening meal for 7 highly commented on favourably, hot plates and food. Unfortunately a bout of food poisoning occurred overnight, although the source cannot be confirmed but suspected. Would recommend and stay again. Chair to be placed in room in September after renovations will be a bonus."

Sailors Rest

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place in Appledore, really well furnished and friendly and helpful staff. Great spot to stay."
