About this property

MOORINGS VIEW APARTMENT INSTOW - Parking, Garden, Estuary Views

Moorings View in Instow is a privately accessed luxury apartment. The beautiful village of Instow is nestled by the Taw and Torridge Estuary.

The apartment is well equipped and able to be used as a one or two bedroom private apartment with one reception room, kitchen and bathroom with shower. The apartment benefits from parking and the shared use of the garden. All main rooms have great views overlooking the river moorings, the Estuary and across to Appledore, a view famed for beautiful sunsets.

The light and spacious holiday apartment is part of a large Arts and Crafts property. The property is one of the most distinctive properties in Instow and was built many years ago as a retirement home for an Admiral. The property is sited to take advantage of the lovely views across the moorings of the Torridge and Taw Estuary. The two rivers combine and meet the sea at Bideford Bar which is visible from the property along with a vast expanse of the Estuary and the River Torridge.

The property has shared use of a heated wet room for drying wetsuits, coats, boots and walking equipment, keeping the private Moorings View apartment clean.

The waterfront is accessed from the bottom of the garden and the property is walking distance from the beach and all the local amenities of this popular village including delicatessen and Post Office, Tarka Trail walking and cycle trail, pubs, bars and restaurants. A garage is available for the storage of bikes for the duration of your stay.

This Instow holiday apartment is available to rent for holidays by the week in peak season and to suit including for long weekends, mid week breaks, staycations, secret escapes and romantic getaways throughout the remainder of the year as either a one bedroom or two bedroom apartment.

The property has stunning panoramic views but is privately accessed via a staircase to the second floor of the property. Therefore the property is not suitable to be let to guests with serious mobility issues, is not wheelchair friendly or available for smaller children under 10. The garden is shared with your hosts and their two furry friendly spaniel dogs.

The Owners have some Sit on top Kayaks that it may be possible subject to some conditions, for guests to borrow to explore the Estuary.

Cosy apartment with amazing views
We had a lovely 4 night stay at the apartment (2 adults, 2 children). Apartment was lovely and cosy, well equipped and the beds were very comfortable. Instow is a lovely place to visit and the views from the apartment are stunning. Would definitely recommend going to The Boathouse for a meal. There are two sets of stairs up to the apartment, which is part of the owners property (but don't worry you wouldn't know they were there, the apartment is very private) so not for those with mobility issues but fine for us. Our second visit to Instow and we will definitely return to the area and to this lovely apartment :)

The Perfect Getaway & The Most Gracious Hosts.
I stayed in Jane and Liam's lovely flat for near on a month; I was dealing with some pretty tough grief after losing my Mum and felt I needed a good amount of time away to process many things in a peaceful and calming environment. That's exactly what Instow and the accommodation helped me to do!. The flat was beautifully presented, in immaculate order and best of all, I could watch the serene sunsets and spectacular scenery through the lounge and bedroom windows every day/night. Never-mind that I witnessed the most amount of stunning rainbows that I've ever seen in 28 days! Nothing was too much trouble for Jane and Liam; they were so kind and caring and above all very empathetic. I wish I could have stayed another month!! Thank you both for providing me with everything I could have asked for and so much more. With love Jo xx

Jackpot!
Moorings View was just great. We were late getting there, but the hosts put off plans so they could welcome us & show us around. They left a box of shortbread, bottle of wine & enough essentials to see us through the next morning of tea & coffee. Unit was sparkling clean, well presented & very "homey". Victorian architecture, but modern fits & finishes made for the perfect combination, including the world's best shower, IMHO. Beautiful views from all windows over the estuary allowed us to see the tides come & go, which was surprisingly interesting! It's only a short, 5-10 min. walk, via a private walkway through the property's garden to the waterfront. Enough dining options were there including pubs, restaurants & a terrific cafe. Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay during our North Devon visit.

What makes this property unique

Unique views makes some guests want to just sit on the window seat and take in the vista! Being able to access the waterside from the bottom of the garden.
