About this property

Quiet riverside hideaway near coastal town

Newly refurbished for 2021, Nuttaberry Cottage is a beautiful semi detached property
just a few hundred yards away from the river Torridge and Tarka Trail. Bordered by open countryside in a semi-rural location, the cottage is only a few minutes’ walk from the many amenities of Bideford town centre, and within a few minutes drive of the gorgeous beaches of the North Devon coastline. Equipped with every modcon and comfort you could need, Nuttaberry Cottage is the ideal base for your stay.

The cottage has two bedrooms: a luxurious master looking out onto the rear garden, and a front-facing twin room. The living area consists of a large open plan kitchen, dining and lounge area, fully equipped with all-new appliances and fittings, complete with a cosy log burning fire. The bathroom has a fully tiled, contemporary design with a full size bath and power shower. There is a separate, fully-equipped utility room (washing machine, tumble dryer, ironing board iron etc) next to the back door, opening out directly onto the patio and back lawn, which is ideal for catching the beautiful Devon morning sun. The bathroom and utility room feature unique porthole windows giving the cottage a nautical feel.

There is full gas central heating throughout with initial lightings and logs supplied for the wood burner. All utilities are included. Bed linen and towels are of high quality Egyptian cotton commercially/professionally cleaned to highest Covid standards.
The cottage has enclosed private parking for up to 3 cars. Additionally there is a large BBQ and dining area to the front of the property, accessible from the main living room via the patio doors leading down onto the decking area (to be completed circa Mid-June 21). There is ample garden furniture both in the rear and front gardens and a large 3 burner gas BBQ (gas provided) for your enjoyment.
Unfortunately we cannot accommodate any pets as we have 3 very territorial dogs of our own (Holly, Poppy and Socks).
Please no smoking within the property and if you do smoke outside we ask that you dispose of butt ends responsibly.

Nuttaberry Cottage is the perfect choice for a family seaside holiday or a couple’s escape at any time of year. This stunning cottage is within easy walking distance of everything the pretty North Devon town of Bideford has to offer. The sunny rear garden is ideal for a lazy breakfast as you plan your day, or for al fresco dining on balmy summer evenings. There is plenty to see and do right on your doorstep with the famous Tarka Trail passing close by for walking or cycling, or stroll around the many delightful shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants that Bideford has to offer, with its regular pannier and waterfront markets, all within a 10-minute walk of the cottage.
Take a boat trip to the nature reserve at Lundy Island or explore many pretty fishing villages including nearby Clovelly and Appledore which is one of the oldest and prettiest villages in North Devon with its myriad of narrow streets, quaint cottages, pubs, restaurants, craft shops, art galleries and the bustling quayside. Instow is just 3 miles and is a pretty, unspoilt, seaside village with large stretches of sandy beaches and dunes, fishermen’s cottages, shops and a good selection of pubs and restaurants specialising in locally caught seafood. The wide golden sandy beach of Westward Ho! popular with surfers, is just 3 miles with Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe all close by. RHS Rosemoor Gardens, Docton Mill and Hartland Abbey are well worth a visit. The area is a must for water sports, sailing enthusiasts, surfers and fishermen. Young and old will enjoy crabbing off the quay at Appledore and golf and riding is available locally. For family fun, The Big Sheep, The Milky Way Adventure Park, Ultimate Adventure Centre and North Devon Wakepark for water sports fun are close by. Golf on the Oldest Link course in Britain RNDGC,, Mountain boarding, karting, and high ropes are available locally and the wild beauty of Dartmoor, Exmoor and Bodmin Moors are all within easy driving distance, as is the famous Eden Project. With so much to discover in this lovely part of North Devon, this is the perfect choice to make happy holiday memories. Beach 2½ miles. If there is anything else that you may want to do then just ask, after enjoying living here over 50 years I’m sure I can find you something to do or I know someone who can !!

Very hidden gem
First time staying at this property, like new inside due to complete refurb, everything needed for a family of four was provided, lovely clean rooms, spacious living area and kitchen, great functional bathroom with bath and shower, back garden for kids to play in, bbq and outdoor seating area. Paul was a great host, easy check in, good communication both before and during stay. Great location for access to all North Devon has to offer, only small (very slight) negative for us was the first impression we got driving through the nearby small industrial area to get to the property. Our initial concerns with this were quickly eroded once we arrived at the cottage and stepped inside. Thank you Paul for a great stay, would highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing getaway in Bideford.
Nuttaberry Cottage is lovely. Modern and clean with every amenity you will ever need. The Tarka Trail is on the doorstep and you can enjoy beautiful walks along it. The host Paul gave us all the information we needed from arrival to departure. I would highly reccomend this property. The approach to the cottage may put people off as it is a bit industrial but when you reach it you are in a quiet and peaceful place.

Peaceful Retreat
Paul's property is brilliantly decorated and equipped, there wasn't anything that we could have needed as it was all there, right down to the little toiletry sets in the bathroom! Thank-you Paul

Close to The Tarka Trail and Bideford
The property was modern and clean. Everything you need plus more in the kitchen than you needed. Beds were comfy. Excellent quality bed linen and towels. There are several steps to the front door. A hand rail is needed. Also disappointed in the approach road , which has many potholes. So be careful if you have a low profile vehicle. A lovely walk along the tarka trail into Bideford. It took us 25 minutes. But two of us are slow walkers . Bideford park is lovely. We also did the Devon Railway centre. A brilliant day out. The host Paul kept in touch to make sure we were all ok. If you are walkers or cyclists. This is an ideal property to go exploring from.
