About this property

Spacious Edwardian family home minutes from the beach and Bude town centre

Welcome to our home! Since purchasing the property six years ago we have completely renovated the ground floor and much of the first floor as well, creating a comfortable and contemporary family home, with period features retained. Original wooden sash windows let in plenty of light and all of the rooms are spacious and bright. There is a playroom equipped with games, a piano, large screen TV and DVD player, and both the playroom, living room and master bedroom have Sky Q. The living room has a wood burner and several shelves of books which you are welcome to sample from during your stay.

The kitchen diner is well-equipped and has integrated appliances including a washing machine and tumble dryer. From here, large windows - one a sliding door - lead out to a deck with outdoor seating and dining. There are steps down to an enclosed, spacious garden with ample space for kids to play.

The first floor has a large master bedroom overlooking the garden, with super-king bed and antique wardrobe and chest of drawers. There is a large second bedroom with bay window - please note that this room currently has a single bed and trundle (as shown in the photo) but this will be upgraded to a double bed prior to the summer. There is also a modern bathroom on this floor with a spacious walk in shower and separate bath (there is also a WC on the ground floor). The loft has been converted into another large third bedroom with single bed, pull out double sofa bed and tropical fish tank! Please note this room does not have a door (although it is still fairly private and not overlooked) and so is probably more suited to children than adults.

The house is situated on a quiet residential street just a few minutes walk from Bude town centre and its stunning beaches. The town offers an ever-increasing collection of independent shops and galleries, a range of restaurants (everything from fish and chips through to fine dining), as well as two excellent local markets on a Friday and Saturday. There is a plethora of outdoor pursuits on your doorstep (18-hole links golf course, coastal path and Bude canal for boating / cycling to name but a very few) and if you can't bring everything with you there are fantastic bike and surf hire shops nearby. Bude has two great beaches - Summerleaze is 5-10 minutes walk from the house and boasts a large sea pool. Crooklets is the next beach along (the two are connected at low tide) and both have beach huts for day hire and excellent cafes and shops supplying buckets, spades etc.

We can't imagine living anywhere else and hope you will enjoy your stay at our property and your time in Bude!

Amazing stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, it was a true home from home with everything we needed. It was clean and tidy and perfect for our family of four, with a great garden for dining out and for the kids to play in. The location was perfect, with a short walk into town and to the beaches. We would absolutely return without hesitation.

Great house in a central location made for a perfect holiday
Simply one of the best properties we have stayed in on holiday in the UK. The house was exactly as listed and shown on Homeaway. The location was central enough to walk everywhere but far enough away from town to be nice and quiet at night. The house is full of natural light, warm and welcoming. The kitchen is well equipped, and fun to cook and eat in. The sitting room is comfortable to relax in with the fire a great added bonus. The garden is lovely, secluded, not too overlooked by the neighbours. The bed in the master bedroom was so comfortable we found it hard to get up in the morning. The kids loved their rooms, also spacious and with comfortable beds. Summerleaze Beach is probably one of my favourite beaches in the UK. Great for surfing and body boarding, building sandcastles, with the added bonus of the sea pool for a swim. We would retire to Life's a Beach most evenings for a pint before coming home. If you ware thinking about staying in Bude, you won't get a better place to stay than Leanne and Tim's house!

beautiful stay in Bude
This house was everything we needed, the photos do not do it justice so we were overwelmed when we saw it for real. The location is perfect for the high street, a great local pub and beaches - all within a reasonable walking distance. The house was well equiped, it felt like a home for the week. Would definitely recommend this house and we hope to return again one day.

About the host

Hosted by Leanne and Tim

Host profile image
We are a family with three young children, happily settled in Bude after moving down from London several years ago. We both work in education and like getting out and about with the kids, especially to the local beaches - even in deepest, darkest winter!

Why they chose this property

The house is a period property built in 1909 but at the same time has plenty of space for everyone in the family. We are situated in a quiet, residential area which is also quite central, and walking distance to most things. Perfect for nipping out to the playground, or for a pint of milk or glass of wine at our local wine bar.
