We had a truly wonderful stay at The Wellies, it was a present to our mum for Christmas which we planned the weekend before her birthday. The Wellies offered everything we could have needed and the host was absolutely fantastic, super speedy responses to messages, and offered great top tips and suggestions for things to do/places to visit etc, ThRead moree location was great within Appledore itself, a 2 minute walk to the seafront adorned with lovely coffee shops, deli's and shops, as well as close to some great restaurants. It really felt like a home from home, and we would highly recommend this property and host to anyone considering! Hide

The cottage was very clean, comfortable and beautifully furnished. The provision of the fan in the upstairs bedroom was welcome. Although the cottage was fine for us, it wouldn't necessarily be ideal for those with mobility problems owing to the steps inside and the hilly location.
