A foodie and friendly reinvigorated old pub, with floor to ceiling estuary views. Bring the dog and hit the coastal path

Read guest comments

There’s a pleasing informality to Sascha and Garth’s re-invention of the Royal George. Fresh food, skilfully cooked is at the heart of the affair - inventive dishes sit alongside some classics - but you don’t have to dress up, there are good options for your children and it’s fine to bring the dog.

Stay a few days to try excellent fish, Exmoor lamb, local pheasant, a great burger; good wines and a range of beers with a different local guest ale every week. Take one of the bedrooms, with sea-faring touches and, of course, those watery views, and you’re treated to a great breakfast; could be classic, could come with chilli and avocado. If you love the sourdough you can order a loaf to take home.

Walkers have the coast path, cyclists the Tarka Trail; surfers nearby Westward Ho! and Saunton; fisher-people can book a trip from the quay. Sandy Instow is across the estuary, so is Tapeley Park; Rosemoor Garden is half an hour’s drive.

Local points of interest from Garth Hughes:

Punti d'interesse locali da
Garth Hughes:

  • Appledore is the most doggy friendly place we know! We allow well behaved dogs in two of our rooms, and in our downstairs restaurant.
  • We're right on the South West Coast Path, follow the coast round for incredible views and beautiful walks.
  • We love to support small local businesses including breweries, and you'll see an ever changing list of beers available during your stay, showcasing the finest talent from around.
  • In the summer our local brass band play on the promenade every Monday, and the RNLI train on a Tuesday, you can see the RNLI going out whilst enjoying a delicious meal in our Restaurant.
  • The stunning Lundy Island, with its 4,000 years of human history, is a wonderful day trip from local port Bideford. The Island's own supply ship "MS Oldenburg" which transports day passengers retains much of its original charm.

Guest feedback
"This place is all about the sea - you can see it from every window, hear it from every bedroom, taste it in the amazing fish menu that Garth has created. When the tide's in, the sea laps inches below the huge picture windows in the restaurant; when it's out, you can walk down the slipway to the rocks and sandy banks below. Lovely rooms above and a gentle, buzzy vibe in the restaurant below."
