    “The main issue is the flies!”

    I guess you have to expect that being on a farm..... The other problem was not having an area where you could open the door and let the dog out and know he was safe. the back garden is open onto other cottages and the farm. Smaller issue the toilet seat in the front bedroom ensuite, kept falling apart, not helpful at 3 o'clock in the morning! Otherwise house was adequate.

    Thank you for your feedback. Flies can be a problem at certain times of the year, had you made us aware of the issue during your stay, would have done all we could to help. It does state on the website that dogs are to be kept on leads when outside on the grounds of the property as it is a working farm with livestock. The toilet seat has been replaced. Property Owner

About the location

BUDE

Tintagel 17 miles.

Kilkhampton is an historic Cornish village, 4 miles from the popular Victorian seaside resort of Bude, one of Cornwall’s premier holiday locations. With its old church, village shops and atmospheric village pubs, Kilkhampton is a lovely 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 rock pools keep visitors occupied for hours. The South West Coast Path, and many other rights-of-way winding over the clifftops and through lush green fields looking out over the sea, make this area a haven for walkers and lovers of the open countryside. For those who prefer staying closer to home, a good shopping centre and a selection of pubs, two clubs and restaurants are on offer. Bude canal, a registered nature reserve, passes through the town, and rowing a boat along 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 area there are also 2 golf courses, an indoor swimming pool, bowling alley at the leisure centre. A perfect location for all that North Cornwall has to offer.

Note: It is not possible to charge electric vehicles at the property
