“Our second visit to Cool Stone Cottage.”

Would highly recommend.Good location with nearby restaurants and pubs.

Would highly recommend.Good location with nearby restaurants and pubs.

- Mrs Thorne, September 2018

“The cottage was very clean and beds very comfortable with no ends which is what we look for as husband and son-in-law are tall.”

Unfortunately the cleaner had not been told the trundle bed needed making up (booked for 4 adults and 2 children) but came out quickly to make up the bed on Friday evening. The only reason we will not book this place again is because of the large property next door is up for sale and it wraps round the back of the property and has 15 bedrooms, may be noisy.

- Mrs Wells, August 2018
“Highlighting the cottage is on the main road would have been something I would have expected.”

The quality of the interior was excellent.

- Mr Knightley, August 2018
“The Cottage is well equipped and comfortable.”

It's more spacious than it might appear from the photos and, with two reception rooms and a large kitchen downstairs, the four of us never felt cramped. It's tastefully decorated and we loved the light and airy kitchen. We were blessed with excellent weather (early July 2018) so took full advantage of the local beaches and walks. Instow's beach and waterfront are delightful, with views across the estuary to Appledore and a choice of good pubs. The Coastal Footpath/Tarka Trail is two minutes walk away and the regular bus service stops just outside the door: we used this a few times - although there is parking outside the Cottage it is in demand and we preferred to leave the car safely there rather than risk losing the space, only driving out if we wanted to take the body boards to beaches further away. Altogether a restful, relaxed break.

- Mr Bendell, July 2018
“We had a wonderful holiday with our dog.”

The weather was fantastic and the cottage was lovely with everything you needed going to book again for next year.

- Mrs Scott, July 2018
“Had a wonderful time.”

Location was great and the dog lived the beech which was just down the road.

- Mrs King, April 2018

- Mr Whysall, March 2018
“Cool Stone Cottage is excellent and we enjoyed our stay very much.”

We were so impressed we have already booked another week in September!!If you have a dog Instow is the perfect destination as everywhere is dog friendly.

- Mrs Thorne, March 2018
“Very cosy cottage - has everything you might want from a stay away.”

Instow is a great location any time of the year - pity about the lack of parking throughout the village

- Mrs Preston-barnes, November 2017
“Beautiful cottage - loved the decor and how the owners had thought of everything!”

We took photos for decorating inspiration!

- Mrs Broder, October 2017

The property

Located close to the sandy beach of Instow, this lovely cottage provides excellent accommodation on the North Devon coast.

Within walking distance to the beach and the village amenities, this cottage is perfect for a family holiday.

The modern kitchen is spacious and bright, where you can open the patio doors and let the fresh air breeze in and with the dining area being open plan to the kitchen, there’s no need for anyone to be left alone to do the cooking!

Glass doors open into the lounge allowing the light to flood through the downstairs and there is a lovely bay window and comfy sofas to relax on.

Upstairs there are three pretty bedrooms, two with views across the estuary, and the added convenience of two bathrooms.

There is a further level which is presently cordoned off.

The patio area is enclosed and also accessible from a gated entrance making it the perfect storage area for surf boards and beach equipment.

Instow has it all, a sandy beach, bobbing boats and an abundance of great cafes and pub/restaurants all with fabulous views.

North Devon boasts some beautiful beaches with miles of golden sands and surfing waves, such as Westward Ho!, Woolacombe, Croyde and Saunton – all offering a great day out for sun bathing, paddling or playing in the sand.

A superb cottage that you won’t want to leave!
