They also serve breakfasts as does the award-winning delicatessen/cafe, from where you can purchase all you need for home dining. With plenty of outdoor tables at the pubs and restaurants you can have a meal or drink while taking in the beautiful river and sea views and watching the boating activities. The view across the estuary is to the historic, pretty fishing village of Appledore, which can be easily reached by car or simply by taking the ferry across from Instow Quay.
Head back to Instow at the end of a day spent exploring and enjoy a local ice cream while sitting on the beach wall admiring the dunes and sandy beach and taking in one of the best sunsets, you’re likely to see as the sun drops into the Atlantic.

We had a fantastic stay at this little cottage in Instow. It was very clean, cosy and a 30second walk to the beach. The cottage was well equipped with everything we needed for a short stay and we would 100% recommend to stay here. The WiFi was a bit patchy which didnt bother us but might be an isue if you are planning to work from the cottage.

Lovely quaint cottage in an excellent location, right next to the beach, pubs and a real gem is the Glorious Oyster, a quirky shack with delicious food and live entertainment The cottage is small but perfectly formed with all its original features. The cobbled floor is unique but the stairs might prove a challenge for some !!! Really comfortable bed, excellent toiletries and private courtyard with table and chairs for al fresco dining if you get the weather Instow and Appledore are delightful and we will definitely be back.

Although I did not spend much time in the cottage, because of work, I loved staying there. Absolutely a dream cottage. I felt at home!
