Tinker

About this property

For something completely out of the ordinary, Tinker is a magical hideaway where character, history and a touch of adventure come together.

Set apart within its own peaceful meadow at Waterstone Retreat, Tinker is formed from two beautifully converted showman’s wagons, creating a wonderfully romantic and memorable place to stay. But its real secret lies beneath the surface.

A hidden passage leads to a remarkable 17th-century underground bothy, where original character meets luxurious touches, including a beautiful slipper bath – the perfect place to switch off from the outside world.

Outside, soak in your private hot tub surrounded by countryside, watch the stars appear overhead or simply enjoy the stillness of the meadow around you.

Quirky without compromising on comfort, Tinker is made for couples searching for somewhere genuinely special. And when you do feel like exploring, the beaches, restaurants and coastal scenery around Bude and Widemouth Bay are within easy reach.

A one-of-a-kind Cornish escape you’ll be talking about long after you leave. . Tucked away amongst rolling countryside, wildflower meadows and wide Cornish skies, Waterstone Retreat is a collection of four wonderfully individual hideaways, each with its own story to tell. Just a stone’s throw from the charming village of Marhamchurch and the beautiful North Cornwall coast, you’ll discover Tinker, Wishbone, Still House and Wonnacott — four thoughtfully designed escapes, each offering something a little different.

Step outside into your own private garden, sink into the warmth of your bubbling hot tub beneath the stars, or spend a lazy afternoon with a good book and nowhere in particular to be. With outdoor areas, cosy fires and inviting spaces designed for slow living, you’ll find everything you need to settle in, unwind and simply enjoy being together.

Wander through our four-acre wildflower meadow, with your four-legged companions welcome to join you. Follow the gentle hum of our working beehives, listen to birdsong around the ponds, or simply find a quiet spot to sit and watch the world go by. With the Tamara Coast to Coast Way close by, there’s plenty of countryside waiting to be discovered on foot.

And when the sea calls, the golden beaches, dramatic coastline and laid-back charm of Bude & Widemouth Bay are just a short drive away.- Four acres of wildflower meadow — with a circular walking trail made for morning wanders and golden-hour strolls.

- Private parking for each accommodation
- EV Charging on site
- Pub & Shop nearby in the village
- Hot tubs & outdoor kitchens
- Close to the beaches of Bude & Widemouth Bay
- Pets friendly accommodation available
- Wonderful walks on your doorstep
