Providing comfortable accommodation to suit the whole family, experience the charms of a small village on the coast of beautiful Cornwall. The house is an absolute haven for beach lovers, with the golden sands of Widemouth Bay less than 0.5 miles away. For up to four humans and one dog, there’s plenty of exploring to be done on both land and sea. At the end of the day, you’ll be glad of the short walk home!

Step into the bright and pleasant kitchen/diner and enjoy a healthy and hearty breakfast together at the table before heading out to find adventure. On your return, wipe those paws and wash away the sand (which the handy washing machine can help with!) before settling down for the evening. The lounge is warm and welcoming, decorated in the natural tones of the countryside. You can relax in front of the Smart TV, with the wood burner-effect electric fire turned on and your canine companion curled at your feet. Turn in for the night, whether that’s in the double bed or on the top bunk, to replenish your energy for the next day. Outside, there is an enclosed patio area which is a perfect summer suntrap.

This stretch of coast is considered a great place for surfing, and keen beginners can take lessons with the local surf school. Let your hound stretch their legs along the dog-friendly south side of the beach, Black Rock, where kids and adults alike will also love poking around in the many rock pools which appear at low tide. The town of Bude is a short drive north (3 miles), where Summerleaze Beach also welcomes dogs on leads, and there are a range of attractions including a sea pool and heritage centre.

A wonderful property in an amazing location. A five minute walk to the wonderful widemouth bay and short drive to Bude but also a great walk along mostly coast path. Everything you need for a peaceful, relaxing coastal break. We were blessed with wonderful weather too!

Just back from a week at this gorgeous cottage, we are a family of 4 plus dog and found the accommodation perfect in size and location. Literally a 2-3 minute walk to the lovely Widemouth Bay beach, and a 5 minute drive to Bude. We also had a couple of days at Sandymouth Bay which we loved.

This is a lovely cottage with a fantastic location. This is the second year we have stayed at the cottage. We walked to the beach every day - brilliant waves and loved by our two dogs who are welcome on the beach. The cottage has a small garden which gets the sun in the afternoon/evening. There are two good size bedrooms and a small bathroom upstaiRead morers. Downstairs, there is a large kitchen, small toilet and living space. It worked well for us - two adults, teenager and two dogs. Hide

We had a wonderful stay at Surfs Up. The cottage was homely, clean and had everything that we needed. It was just a 5 minute walk from Widemouth Bay - close to the beach car park, RNLI lifeguards and surf schools. Communication from the owner was excellent. We would highly recommend and will definitely be returning.

A small but well decorated homely house which is an ideal getaway if you want a doggy beach holiday! Widemouth beach is a short walk away and lovely views/cliff top walks.

While the property is close to Widemouth Beach, the pub (that is close to the property) is closed in Winter. So the only other amenities are in Bude. Also, there is no street lighting so a torch should have been mentioned. Unlike other areas of Cornwall in January, much of the shops are closed. Even Tintagel only opened on Friday. There is little tRead moreo do and not even a nice public house to walk to and take in the views. We were very disappointed. So much so, that we left for home 4 days early. Hide
