A Cornish village cottage with charm, this is a relaxed base for families or groups wanting easy access to the North Cornwall coast. The garden terrace is made for long afternoons among wildflowers, and a separate annexe with its own en-suite shower room gives the group a little breathing room. Inside, the kitchen is kitted out for proper self-catering, and with pets welcome, nobody gets left behind. Bude's sandy beaches, surf, and the iconic Bude Sea Pool are just a short drive away, as is the South West Coast Path for clifftop walks above the Atlantic.

Home truths
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
The annexe sits slightly apart from the main house, so guests staying there will step outside to reach the living areas and kitchen – fine in summer, but worth bearing in mind if the weather turns.
The ceiling in some areas is on the low side. It might not be suitable for taller guests.
