Riverside Cottage is 1 mile from the ancient port & market town of Bideford straddling the River Torridge is nearby & offers a good range of local facilities. The spectacular North Devon coast is never far away & includes the dramatic rugged coastline to the west & the glorious sandy surfing beach at Westward Ho! backed by the famous pebble ridge and the Northam Burrows Country Park. The River Torridge plays an important environmental role as a large portion of the Taw-Torridge estuary is a site of special scientific interest (SSSI).

Riverside Cottage has recently been acquired by new owners’ husband and wife team Donna & Simon in December 2008. This stunning house has been lovingly revamped, paying particular attention to the charm of this 100 year old cottage; while keeping a firm focus on the incredible views which surround the property. Riverside Cottage has been transformed with a modern contemporary style that appeals to the demands of the 21st century guest. Recent renovations have factored in lifestyle and technological advances catering for everyone’s passions, ideas and priorities, while still providing a real warm and friendly Devon experience.
