We spent a wonderful 10 days at Aurora Barn in August ‘25, and could have gladly stayed forever. Lovely and peaceful, well appointed and a great place explore the area from. Bude and its surrounding area are fantastic, with great beaches and more than enough amenities. Hope to go back to Aurora very soon.
