A delightful fishing village with tiny cottages and loads of narrow lanes to explore, plenty of pubs, cafes and restaurants. Where you can stroll along the harbourside which at low tide is many feet below you, as the tidal range in North Devon is pretty large.

In fact at low tide it looks like you can almost walk from Appledore to Instow but I would certainly not recommend that you do, as its almost certain that the bright orange lifeboat based in Instow will have to be called out to rescue you, if you do!
