Bude Bolthole

This detached bungalow is located just one mile from the seaside town of Bude. The town is deservedly popular with visitors to the region, thanks to its numerous beaches, each with its own character. Summerleaze Beach, the closest to the town centre, has a wide expanse of sand, as well as a tidal pool which allows safe bathing whatever the conditions at sea. Just three miles along the coast, Widemouth Bay is also a sandy beach, but, being more exposed, is a popular destination for surfers. There is a surf academy here for those who would like to try their hand for the first time. Besides beaches, visitors will also find a range of shops, cafes and bars in the town, as well as mini-golf, pleasure boats and tennis courts.

On entering this single-storey property, guests will discover the lounge with its feature fireplace, TV and French doors which open onto the garden and give the room beautiful views across the countryside. The separate dining room has a second TV with additional seating and access through to the kitchen, via two steps. Here guests will find the electric oven and hob, fridge, and microwave, whilst the freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer are housed in the external utility room. The property has two bedrooms: a double and a twin. Another small step leads guests to the bathroom, with its shower over bath and WC.

Outside, the property really comes into its own. A rarity for a holiday cottage of this type, this property has a large, enclosed garden which will be a real joy for children who love to run around and also for those who just like to relax outside and enjoy the views over the surrounding countryside. There is seating and a table on the lawn, which makes this a great place to enjoy a relaxing alfresco lunch.
