About this cottage rental

This is a substantial period property which has just been totally refurbished whilst retaining its original features and for the first time in over 200 years is available to let as a holiday destination. The house is adorned with a date-plaque of 1878. Both the name and the date are misleading as the house has a much earlier history as it used to be a coaching inn known as ‘The Unicorn Inn’ dating back in licencing records to at least 1822.

This superb period property with accommodation over three floors offers the perfect family getaway, providing comfort and quality for larger groups as well as having a good sized, privately enclosed garden which is a rarity in Appledore. You will be less than 350 metres from the quayside with an array of excellent pubs, restaurants, shops, and cafes whilst further hidden gems can be found through a myriad of narrow streets. Enjoy the Maritime Museum which showcases the village and its maritime heritage. Across the river is Instow which can be reached via the seasonal passenger ferry or a 5-mile drive. Here you’ll find sand dunes, an estuary beach, pubs, plus a lovely deli/café. The port town of Bideford is just 2 miles away with a range of independent shops and eateries. Westward Ho!
