Cornwallis Cottage
About Cornwallis
Cornwallis sits at the end of a row of pretty pastel coloured former mariner cottages, on a quiet cobbled street, a stones throw from the bustling quayside.
Situated in the heart of the traditional fishing village of Appledore, just a mile and a half from the sandy beaches of Westwood Ho!, Cornwallis boasts breathtaking panoramic views across roof tops to the estuary, Instow and sea beyond.
A large, open plan kitchen creates a wonderful entertaining space
Floored in slate with a range of rustic painted wooden cabinets and retro style dining table seating 6 to one end, and relaxed seating in front of a cosy wood burner to the other.
Double doors leading out onto the garden and a separate laundry and washroom sit off to the side.
To the front of the cottage, you'll find a cosy sitting room with deep moody green walls, soft linen furnishings and a wood burner, creating a cocoon of comfort.
​
The perfect spot to relax of an evening or when the weather has turned, with shelves filled with books, games and a smart TV to keep everyone entertained.
3 Beautifully furnished, light
and airy bedrooms
There are three bedrooms, one with an en-suite with shower, and a family bathroom with separate shower and bath.
All the bedrooms have new comfy mattresses and are dressed in Egyptian cotton linens and pretty hand printed Indian bedspreads.

Far reaching, panoramic views across the estuary
On the first floor, a large bright south facing king enjoys views out of a near floor to ceiling wooden sash window towards the estuary. Painted wooden floors, fluffy rugs and a contemporary gas fire in the chimney breast, all add to the serenity of this room.
Looking over the garden to the back is a lovely twin bedroom, perfect for kids or adults. Can be made into a super king on request.
Stairs leading from the middle of the landing take you up and straight into a stunning vaulted super king suite, with wonderful far reaching panoramic views across the estuary, Instow and sea beyond.
The perfect bedroom to happily while away a morning lazing in bed with a good book.
​
We provide a large fluffy bath sheet for all guests.
Pretty little sunny walled garden
Double doors from the kitchen lead you out to a beautiful garden which is partly slate paved, grassed and decked towards the back. Here you'll find more lounge seating, dining space and a gas BBQ for sunny days.
Side access to the garden is perfect for bikes and beach gear. To the front of the house is a small sunny terrace, with cafe style seating for two - the perfect spot to escape with an early morning coffee.
