“Great Cottage in a lovely village setting, location is only 2 miles from main town of Bude.”

Lost to do in the area to keep you amused. Great restaurants in Bude to choose from as well Would happily return to the Cornwall House

- Mr Gould, September 2020
“Good location.”

nice village close to Bude

- Mr Mortell, September 2020
“A lovely cottage in a great location to explore Bude and the beautiful surrounding area, sadly let down by poor management.”

When we arrived we found three large black bin liners full of rubbish piled up outside the front door. Upon entering the property it became immediately obvious that it has a significant problem with damp. The downstairs area smelled strongly of mould and one of the walls was dripping with water, so much so that a puddle had formed on the floor. It seemed that the cleaners tried to hide this by placing a large floor cushion on top. There was evidence of mould all around the downstairs area as well as in one of the upstairs bedrooms. We ended up lighting a fire every night just to dry towels and swimsuits. The BT Sport account did not work despite being advertised on the website (a great shame because it was the last week of the Champions League). We contacted the housekeepers as instructed by SMS and also left a message with a member of staff who told us that somebody would attend to the problems, but we never heard back. We will definitely return to the area, but not to Tor View cottage.

“Really lovely little cottage in a nice village just outside bude.”

Many thanks for your feedback. We are really pleased you loved your stay and had a great holiday. Owner relations
“The cottage was lovely.”

Clean crisp bed linen and towels. Webbing,spiders and evidence of crisps/tortillas on the floor behind the ironing board (so didn't expect this due to the change in arrival time -from 3pm to 6pm to enable extra cleaning) Parking was a real issue.

- Mrs Fletcher, July 2020

Many thanks for your feedback. So pleased you liked the cottage. We have spoken to the housekeepers about the cobwebs and they are checking every-time now. Unfortunately, as it's road parking, it just depends on time of year and number of cars, but we've always managed to get a spot. There is a free car park at the bottom of the village, just before turning right at the Kings Arms Pub, that may suit guests better. Owner relations
“Fantastic location in a beautiful Village.”

2 pubs within walking distance and 5 minute drive to great beaches - we had a wonderful break and will definitely booking again.

- Mrs Godfrey, October 2019
“Great location and lovely quirky cottage with some nice additions - remote control candles, pool/dining room table and well equipped kitchen.”

We've stayed in a few cottages and facilities can be hit/miss, the shower here was excellent and there was a nice big smart TV. We enjoyed the local pubs which were a short stagger down the road and both had great food on the menus. The cottage has some real nice original features with the open fire and fireplaces still intact in the main bedroom. We found it clean, tidy and a nice bottle of wine as a welcome!

- Miss Balwin, October 2019
“The advertising did not state clearly there was no outside space or the very small nature of what was available.”

We felt the cleaning was well below what we expected. The house smelled of dog with dog hair left around the downstairs. We are not a family with a dog.Part of the problem was the hover bag was full of the smell too, so when I tried to clear the hair up by hovering through it made the smell worse! There were meny cobwebs. We were disappointed. The cottage was in a great location though, parking is definitely an issue.

- Miss Lee, July 2019

About the location

STRATTON

Bude 2.5 miles.

A peaceful, picturesque village close to the resort town of Bude, one of Cornwall’s premier holiday locations. With its lovely old church, winding streets and atmospheric village pubs it’s a place to relax after a hard day exploring the stunning beaches and spectacular coastal scenery for which the area is famous. Bude’s beaches attract surfers from all over the country and when conditions are right you’d be hard pushed to find better surf. When the tide is out, miles of golden sand and hundreds of rocky pools keep visitors occupied for hours. The SW coast path and many other rights of way winding over the cliff tops and through lush green fields looking out over the sea are a haven for walkers and lovers of the open countryside while a good shopping centre and a selection of pubs, clubs and restaurants take care of the inner person. Bude canal, a registered nature reserve passes through the town and rowing a boat through its calm waters or walking the towpath among the beautiful (and friendly) water fowl that live among the reeds is a great way to spend an hour or two. Within the town there are also 2 golf courses, an indoor swimming pool, bowling alley and leisure centre. A perfect location for all that North Cornwall has to offer
