Compact, everything you could need, great shower, most amazingly comfortable bed, huge fluffy towels, comfortable sofa table and chairs. This was our second stay and it's still one of the best in Bude, close to beach, canal, pub and town. If we get to Bude again it will definately be on our list.

My husband and I stayed here five years ago and came back to celebrate our birthdays. Gina and Jonathan are such lovely hosts and we love their cottage. It felt like we were back at home when we stayed again and had an amazing nine days. We couldn’t fault a thing and hope to return again!Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Perfect for us

We were doing the SW coast path and using Bude as a base this was a first class location. The accommodation is ideal for a couple and the property owner is wonderful.
