What our guests say:
We had a lovely week; the cottage was all that we were hoping for.
The weather got very exciting over the New
Year and the waves were fabulous...we celebrated the
New Year on Crooklets Beach with a bottle of Champagne... The
moon came out as we watched the fireworks. M

The cottages are next door to one another on
the small complex set above Bude in peaceful rolling countryside.
They are ideal for families
wanting to spend Christmas or New Year away together in 4 star graded quality
cottages where we have tried to ensure you'll have everything you need for a
perfect Christmas or New Year break. There's a welcome tray and beds are made up
for your arrival, and the tariff is inclusive - so there are no annoying meters.
Cots and highchairs are provided free of charge. There are a
total of 14 cottages on the site, but not all are let out to holiday makers.
This means that you'll often have the pool to yourselves, which is perfect for
new swimmers and those just learning. It has a constant depth of 1.27 meters so
no 'deep end' to worry about.
At Christmas and New Year the beach provides a wonderful
deserted walk along the coast, breathing clean fresh air, making you hungry for a
pub lunch, or back to the cottage for a meal. You won't miss your
favourite programs as we provide blank videos to tape shows while you are out,
and we also have a selection of films to watch on DVD and video. Both cottages
are very well stocked with books for all ages, but with an abundance of
excellent children's books for bedtime stories and reading alone, plus board
games to play.
For something different, go down to the beach on Christmas
morning and take part in the annual Christmas dip in the sea with the Bude
Surf and Life Saving Club, then enjoy hot mince pies to warm up! This is a
sponsored event to raise funds for the club, and they are very happy to welcome
holiday makers taking part, or just watching!
Bude has a mild climate and even at New Year its still
possible to enjoy bracing walks around Hartland Point, or visit the nearby towns
of Boscastle, Tintagel and Clovelly. Get the New Year off to a fine start by
visiting Dartmoor, just inland, which provides some spectacular views from the
hills and tors of the coastline.
Both self catering cottages are rated by the English tourist council as 4 star
standard. They are ideal for asthma and allergy sufferers, as each cottage is
both non-smoking and does not accept pets.
