We had a fabulous week at Cranberry - the location is amazing, a few minutes from all the amenities of Bude town centre, and a few minutes further gets you to the wonderful Summerleaze beach! The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay away from home. Comfy beds, all the kitchen facilities you need, enough space, secure garden for our dogs. Go out the back gate to the Co-op or the golf course for a morning dog walk - ideal! The owners communication was great and he even has recently purchased a travel cot which was fantastic for our 17 month old son. There is also a highchair and booster seat available. Thank you - we will be back!

House was lovely. Location was great. So much so we only ventured away from Bude for 1 day. Our only disappointment was the grass, looked like it hadnât been cut for some weeks. Which was a shame. But we would return.

Only downside is the pubs/bars in bude are very anti children and only one pub would allow us to take our baby in for a drink, it was 5pm! The house on first look was lovely and a very good size for us. Unfortunately the lack of communication with the owner was a problem. We messaged a few days prior to our holiday, asking if a travel cot was available at the property, as we were travelling from Norfolk and wanted to pack as little as possible to fit a baby and greyhound in the car! On response, the owner stated that the travel cot had disappeared. The first bedroom I go to (single room) I find a travel cot between the bed and window, so we did not need to play tetris in the car after all. The house was clean and tidy and had all the basics to have a week there. The lack of personal touches was a shame, a welcome pack would have been a nice touch, with information about the area, the house and numbers for any emergencies, maybe a pint of milk in the fridge, especially when they know you've come 8 hours! One afternoon, baby was having a nap on me, and my partner was on the other sofa, having a little shut eye, when I open mine, i see a gentleman standing in the front garden looking into the property. I'm shocked and unsure what to do. My partner wakes up and I give him baby, as I go through to the kitchen, the gentleman was then coming past the kitchen window in the garden and back down the side path. I believe this was the owner, but a little warning about stopping by the property would have been nice. Did make me feel quite uncomfortable for the rest of the day. We had an amazing holiday, even with it raining most days. However, I would put this experience down to the town of Bude and being with my family, not the property. It has so much potential, if the correct love and attention was made to the property. The positive part of the property was the location, super close to everything and we were able to the dog out of the back gate and straight onto the golf course for walks.
