Within two miles is Widemouth Bay, where you can spend summer days lounging on the wide expanse of sand and paddling in the shores, before sampling the menu and specials board at Widemouth Manor, proudly sitting overlooking the dramatic coastline. Take a new water sport at the surf school or choose a selection of boats for hire if you wish to go at your own pace. Further north lies Bude, home to the glorious Summerleaze Beach, boasting a sheltered sea pool, beach huts and further watersport opportunities, plus there is the 19th Castle Bude for those interested in history.

On the outskirts of Bude, this small coastal hamlet looks out over one of the area’s top surfing beaches. Famous for its rugged coastline, tumbling surf and excellent walking, it’s the place to relax and unwind. Lively Bude, with its town, beaches, clubs, pubs and resort attractions is 3 miles away, while to the north the Coast Path winds its way over the cliff tops toward the lonely lighthouse at Hartland Point, and on to the beautiful cliff side village of Clovelly. Take the main ‘Atlantic Highway’ north from Bude and you’ll also pass the Big Sheep and Milky Way theme parks, both great days out. If you love the countryside but don’t want to be too far from the holiday action, this is the place to stay.

One of which meant we had to cut our holiday short and that is there are sheep in the paddock. Luckily we don't have dogs that bark but it did mean they had to stay in as they were getting stressed and trying to jump the fence. The second thing missing is there are 2 steps to the bathroom luckily the disabled member of our party managed to get up and down with some help but it could have been a lot worst for somebody. These things may be down to Sykes and the way they lay things out but they should be mentioned.

Lovely for local coastal walks on your doorstep. The paddock was an added bonus for our furry friend who loves to run. Short drive to numerous locations. Owners were very helpful and easy to contact if needed. Wood fired hot tub with a view was a hit for the hubby. Would definitely stay again

Great views and wonderful sunsets. Well equipped and comfortable property, with all we needed. On site parking and secure garden, a big plus for our dog. Hot tub and garden furniture a bonus. Great field next door for walks and viewing the coast line, enhanced by the viewing platform (built by the owner). We had a fabulous week, even the weather was good. A great base to explore Cornwall. Thank you to Steve and family for sharing their property. We hope to be back very soon. Be sure to use the owners instructions for finding the property. Very helpful.
