“Best of all worlds – sea, sand, rocks, country, house and garden”

Posted by Emma in: Guest reviews

We are a family of five ranging from teenager to young son. The area and property are well described and well presented. Parking easy – we arrived on the August bank holiday weekend. Good use of space and well equipped house with decent garden. The owners provide useful information and a pleasant welcoming touch. It feels as if they genuinely care that people will enjoy their home. Despite variable weather there was never a dull moment. The area is well frequented but not over-busy. Dining out may require patience or booking early and there is enough choice to go somewhere different each day. We enjoyed eating in the house using the excellent facilities. There is a gadget for everything! When the big TV with DVD and Wii is on occupying the kids and mum is well into one of the many jig-saws provided dad would creep out into the back garden to read and sip on a glass of wine on the warm sheltered patio. Beds were clean and comfortable – not too soft – and one of the bathrooms has an installed TV with floor lights (much to the delight of my older daughter). I guess a good place to unwind in the bath with a bottle of champagne (but no such luck with our kids around!). The beach is very easy to get to (just take care when crossing the road) and the rock pools are fantastic. Opportunities for photography and crabbing in between jumping/surfing the waves. BBQ possible on the beach if weather permits. Pleasant local walks. Bude easy to get to where there are several supermarkets and other eateries. Would go again.
