This spacious home is perfectly tucked away just off the lively beachfront of Bude, providing a perfect combination of calm and adventure. The ultimate escape for families and friends.

Enjoy Cornwall in style staying at this spacious three-bed house tucked away in central Bude. Ideal for family or friends, you can invite up to two canine pals too. In a quiet location it’s well positioned for the beach, canal, town and South West Coast Path (all within 0.5 miles). This means you can totally switch off, and don’t have to worry about driving while you’re here. The spacious rooms are beautifully decorated and fitted, giving you a sense of freedom and relaxation.

Towel the dogs off in the generous hallway and leave them to snooze – perhaps accompanying you doing the same in the snug area? The lounge is a lovely, large space with wooden floors and flooded with light from the big bay window. There’s also an open-plan kitchen/diner that is well-equipped and seats six. Upstairs, take your pick from one double, one twin and one en-suite master double bedroom. Individually styled, they all promise comfort and calm for a great night’s sleep. The lovely garden is full enclosed and tiered so kids and dogs will have a ball. It offers outdoor seating on the lower patio area, sun loungers on the lawn as well as a charcoal BBQ.

Get to grips with Bude. Summerleaze Beach is within 0.5 miles and there are plenty of amenities to make your stay stress-free. Mooch about the independent shops, cafes and galleries. Alternate dog walks along Bude Canal and the beach for a bit of variety. Don’t forget the cliff tops and coastal path, either. Cross the canal and river to take a dip or even paddleboard in the quirky Bude Sea Pool, a semi-natural tidal pool where you can safely swim – for free! The National Trust’s Sandymouth Bay Beach is 3 miles north, while Widemouth Bay is the same to the south.
