Great house with ample space for our party of 8. The kitchen is a great place for everyone to socialise and it was good to have the dog able to wander into the garden safely.

A beautiful house, clean, roomy and lovely furnished with mod cons and spacious for all the family. The beds were comfy and the showers were amazing. Located in a little town called Holesworthy which is about a 13 min drive to Bude. In the village there is a little community run shop (limited opening hours) and a pub for drinks.

We feel that more comfortable chairs in the kitchen/living area would have been great, the benches provided we good for meals but very unconfutable at other times. We also could not get the hot tub past 34.5 degrees which for us was just a bit to low. Other than the above we had a great time and the property/location was stunning.
