Great location and the view from the living area is lovely especially at night. Everything you need for a short or long stay as the cottage is well equipped.

This is our second visit and I am sure not the last. Perfectly located with stunning views of the coastline. 3 minute drive to Black Rock beach which is dog friendly and unspoilt. The grounds outside the cottage are perfect for dog walking too. The cottage is very comfortable and nicely decorated. A lovely relaxing getaway!

This little cottage is very cosy and works perfectly for short stays and day trips along the North coast of Cornwall. The kitchen and the bathroom are perfectly equipped also for longer stays. The bedroom is very nicely decorated, but the bed is bit small and soft (depending on what you are used too). On the top floor there is a large window with aRead more fantastic view, especially at sunset. Hide

The location of Kennacott Court is fantastic. We travelled with our dog and being able to go straight out into the grounds which lead into fields for morning/evening walks was just perfect. Black rock beach is a 5 mins drive away and is stunning. The accommodation is upside down with the bedroom downstairs. The sitting room has a great view to the Read morecoast. It is small and cosy, perfect for two (and a dog). We had a week of sunshine which made all the difference! Would definitely go again. Hide

Great cottage. Lovely sea view and amazing sunsets. Very dog friendly with massivesafe field right outside. Area is great, just out of Bude, which we liked. All restaurants we went to welcomed the dog. Communal areas at the complex are a bit run down, which is a shame, but no reflection of the actual cottage. Would recommend.

The cottage is very nicely situated with lovely views out to the sea with access to beaches 5 to minutes away by car. It is a little quirky in that it has the bedroom and en-suite on the ground floor with the lounge/diner/kitchen on the first floor which works very well. We really enjoyed our stay at this cottage and recommend it whole heartedly.
