Believed to have been established in Roman Times, Stratton indulges guests with its olde-world feel made up of historic buildings, narrow streets, and a homely local pub, set just down the road from the cottage itself. Bude is a short 1.5-mile drive away and has a lovely array of local shops and fine eateries serving up all sorts of delicacies. The town is a surfers' paradise with a choice of three golden sandy beaches to enjoy, as well as an award-winning golf course and easy access to the South West Coast Path, which is a top trail for guests to hop onto. Being conveniently located just off the A39, the retreat provides easy access to many top South West attractions including The Milky Way Adventure Park (15 miles) and the mythical Tintagel (20 miles), famed for the legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.

 Stepping into this beautiful property you will immediately notice the fine attention to detail and stylish interiors it has on offer. Head into the porch area which is the ideal spot to pull off those walking boots after a day of exploring the North Cornwall coastline, before continuing on through into the spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. This open-plan area exudes luxury and comfort with cushy seating and a Smart TV for watching your favourite films on. The kitchen provides everything you need for a stress-free, relaxing stay, whilst the dining table seats all guests. If this enchanting space isn’t enough, across the hallway you will find an additional snug room, perfect for some quiet time to read a book or a get-together to play your favourite board games. The ground floor is completed with a downstairs utility room. Making your way up the stairs will bring you to the four bedrooms and a beautiful contemporary family bathroom. Two bedrooms have king-size beds and accompanying en-suite shower rooms, whilst the third bedroom provides a double bed, and finally, twin beds occupy the fourth and final bedroom.

Heading outside via the French doors, the enclosed garden has both an upper terrace and lawn with riverside views. The terrace combines with the kitchen/dining area to create the ultimate entertainment space with outdoor seating, a built-in gas fireplace, and your own private hot tub to truly unwind. Making your way down the spiral staircase will not only bring you to the lawn, but also to the final special feature of this unique property.

This incredible property is the perfect base to explore the coast. Greg and Steph welcome you to their wondeful home with a generous hamper, complete with fresh eggs from their chickens, seen (but not heard) from the neighbouring yard.

Lovely property. Top quality everything. Hot tub was lush and owners very accessible for anything needed. We went for Xmas and it was fully decorated with an added lovely welcome pack. Easy walk across the gold course down into Bude (takes about 40 minutes).

Absolutely marvelous stay in this spotlessly clean and well equipped house. If it rains, enjoy the games room. The beds are extremely comfortable, and the whole house is very spacious and comfortable. On a nice day, sit on the veranda and watch the goshawk and many other birds, or look at the stars from the hot tub.
