About this property

This delightful semi-detached cottage is in a fantastic position overlooking Bude Canal and just a few paces from the beach in the popular coastal town of Bude. For traditional fun-filled family holidays, where every day is a lazy day spent on the beach, this delightfully quirky house could not be better situated, with the wonderful extensive sands of Summerleaze directly opposite and just one-minute walk away. Arriving at the cottage, the whole family will be in a rush to get onto the beach, but take a while to appreciate the charming way that the owners have designed this lovely house with your comfort in mind that makes it light and spacious yet cosy and welcoming. On the ground floor there is a really spacious sitting room with views to remember. A well-designed kitchen with dining area boasts a skylight which lets the light flood in. Upstairs, the three comfortable bedrooms make the most of the views, perfect to wake up to. From the twin bedroom there is a small sun room, a lovely quiet spot to relax at any time of day. Outside is a garage with table tennis to keep everyone entertained even on rainy days.

    Already booked for next year before this stay . Great location always enjoy our time here . Ideal place lovely views out of living room windows . Easy access to beach( our little dog loves it ) . Wish we could stay longer .

    Generally the property is in a tired condition. We subsequently received a vague accusation that we had damaged ‘something’ (we have never been told exactly what it had any evidence of this). This has then been sued as the reason to cancel a long held booking, paid for over a year ago. Poor behaviour.
