Appledore Instow Ferry

There has been a ferry here for many centuries, always providing a well used service. The ferry that runs today is community run and offers the chance to nip across theTaw and Torridge Estuary and explore both sides!

Well worth a trip

This a non-profit ferry boat crossing between Appledore and Instow. It was £6 each way for a family of four. The crossing is short but it offers the chance to visit a very different community on the other side of said estuary. Both villages have their charms and there are a range of places to eat on either side.

Don't miss out

This is a great little ferry, the kids loved going on it and so did the dad's nipping over to instow for a cheeky pint or two.
