This charming cottage is the perfect coastal escape for couples or solo travellers looking for a restful holiday with easy access to the North Cornwall coast and countryside. The cottage is beside the owner's residence, and the Tamar Lakes Activity Centre (0.5 miles) offers plenty of water or land-based activities, including kayaking or walks around the lakes and surrounding woodland. Explore the popular coastal town of Bude (9 miles), walk along the golden sands, or enjoy surfing in the turquoise water at Summerleaze Beach.

You’ll feel right at home as soon as you step inside this welcoming cottage set over a single level. The decor has light hues that reflect the coastal location, creating a tranquil feel for a relaxing stay. The contemporary kitchen on the left has all the appliances to rustle up a romantic dinner or a late brunch. The dining table is ideal for sitting with your morning brew, planning the day's adventures. Head into the lounge, and here, you can unwind on the plush sofa and watch your favourite box set on the TV. The wood burner makes this an ideal choice any time of the year. Continuing through the cottage, you will find a stylish shower room and a king-size bedroom. Step outside onto a beautiful private patio and seating area: sit back, fire up the BBQ and dine alfresco in fine weather. Additionally, there is full use of the shared garden. Private off-road parking is available for one car.

There are plenty of attractions to explore in this beautiful part of Cornwall and Devon, including the National Trust Bideford Bay and Hartland, and the Clovelly Waterfall, less than 15 miles away. If you prefer hiking, head to Water Cove Beach (9.5 miles).

Very friendly owners with the comfortable cottage providing the facilities and rural location, it was everything that we needed for our holiday. Although the weather was not the best and we did not sit out or try out the barbecue, the onsite entertainment at the bird feeders viewed from the kitchen window was a real bonus. The location was just rRead moreight for us allowing easy access to destinations north, east, south and west and there are plenty of walks near by and in particular a 3 mile walk around Upper Taymar Lake. We would certainly go back for another stay at the cottage if we were holidaying in the same area again. Hide
