This quirkily shaped cottage tucked away in the charming village of Poughill offers those looking for a traditional Cornish holiday, the very best of both worlds: the tranquillity of village life, but with the hustle and bustle of a surfing town just a mile away. Sleeping up to five guests and one canine companion, this property is ideal for a family wanting to ‘get away from it all’ and enjoy a real bucket-and-spade holiday.
After parking your car in the handy off-road parking space, you’ll walk into the open-plan lounge/diner and find yourself enveloped in the welcoming atmosphere of this room. An open fire provides a cosy glow, making even the coldest of evenings warm and snuggly - your four-legged friend is going to adore curling up on the rug next to you whilst you provide belly rubs. Creamy white sofas invite you to recline and enjoy a snooze after a busy day, possibly catching up on the latest box set too. The safe, enclosed gardens are perfect for your busy pup to race around whilst you watch on from the warmth of the conservatory or whilst enjoying a morning cup of tea on the decked area just outside.
Bude is a triple winner in the British Travel Awards for ‘Best UK Coastal Town/Resort’ and it’s easy to see why – a laidback town that attracts an eclectic mix of ramblers, riders, surfers and swimmers. With a fantastic selection of shops, restaurants and pubs, most of which welcome dogs, you’ll find everything you need to make your stay an enjoyable one here. For something a bit different take an 8-mile drive to Tiverton and visit the Devon Railway Centre and Model World: there’s something here for the whole family and dogs on leads are also welcomed.
