Carrows Stable

Carrows Stable is a wonderful house in a wonderful location, with all the amenities one could need.

It is out of the way and very quiet, which is part of its charm. The house was spotless, the garden is beautiful and there are a couple of walks right outside the door. The cliffs and the Coast Path are just 500 meters away, and the tea rooms are really as good as people say in the other reviews. The owner is friendly and super helpful, with tips about nearby beaches, lending us a few implements we were missing and introducing our respective dogs to each other. Thank you for a lovely stay, my family is still raving about our stay!

Amazing location for dog walks.

Stunning scenery and close to the South West Coast path. Loved the accommodation which had everything you could need for self catering including super comfy Super King bed. Enjoyed frequenting the local Bush Inn which is within easy walking distance and same for the Tea Rooms, both of which are worth a visit or several. The host Paula was really friendly and welcoming and so was Shamus the gorgeous dog who made great friends with our dog Spinny.

Ein idealer Rückzugsort für naturliebende Menschen.

Das Haus ist sehr gut ausgestattet und bietet Ruhe und Gemütlichkeit. In absoluter Nähe kann man auf dem Küstenpfad wandern. Ein sehr guter Tearoom und ein ebenso guter Pub befinden sich in unmittelbarer Nähe. Wir kommen sehr gern wieder.

Lovely characterful cottage, I hope to visit again sometime.

The location is stunning, just a few minutes from the coast path in a beautiful wooded valley, and we enjoyed being able to stroll to the Rectory Tea Rooms and Bush Inn too. (And the kitchen was unusually well equipped for a holiday let, which we appreciated!)

A lovely cottage and accomodation in an unspoilt part of Cornwall.

If you're looking for a relaxing time with the occasional cliff top walk this is the cottage to choose.

Carrows is situated literally on the SW coast path, which was ideal for us as we were walking the path.

The property was spacious, clean, warm, well appointed with a really well equipped kitchen. The owner was away on holiday but was brilliant at messaging to check all was okay. Highly recommended!"

The best location for a peaceful break.

A warm and comfortable stay in a refined, well thought out, retreat.

You will want for little. With the Bush Inn 1/2 mile away serving great food (try the crab and leek tart!} and the best cream tea you will have within 200 yards, plus the fact that there is spectacular coastal scenery a short walk away,everything is complete for a perfect holiday

Had a lovely stay at a lovely place, yes it could do with a bit of a paint and spruce up but the surroundings more than make up for it.

The owner is great and her dog is wonderful. It's been a long time since I've been in total silence so it was very welcome. Plenty of coastal walks and nearby places to visit via car.

Problem with TV signal sorted straight away.

Otherwise all OK.

Super week at Carrows.

Looking forward to our next visit.

We stayed at The Old Vicarage.

The house is lovely, very comfortable with fabulous views. Very peaceful. Highly recommended

Cottage can be very noisy from the garage workshop directly beneath the accommodation.

Not good for spending a peaceful time indoors or in the garden. But stunningly beautiful location, close to the SW footpath, church and excellent tearooms. 'Double' bedroom scarcely bigger than the bed. Needs redecorating throughout.

Our stay was lovely, peaceful and very enjoyable.

The cottage was well equipped, nicely secluded but within easy reach of a good pub and quaint tea rooms, with my favourite cream teas, within an easy walk. Paula the owner was very welcoming and our two dogs loved her dog Seamus. The bed was soo comfortable. There were several walks close to the cottage. We will certainly be returning in the future.

We had a really relaxing week away.

The owner was always on hand when needed. Some updates have taken place since our last visit, nice. Already looking forward to next time .

Carrows Stables is a wonderful location because it lies very remote and we enjoyed seaviews as well as the fact that the South West Coast Path is only a 5 minutes walk away from the cottage.

With The Rectory Tearooms and the Bush Inn close by, very good food was always at hand. The kitchen was very well equipped. Paula, the owner of Carrows Stable, was very kind and always helpful (she also cut the plants so that we had a great view from the window in the living room). Her dog Seamus was absolutely adorable and a highlight of our stay. Nevertheless, I agree with Carolyn´s review (August 2023) concerning the condition of the cottage: it needs redecorating and the cleaning was not very well done (cobwebs, empty dogfood tin from a previous tenant in the dustbin ...). The second bedroom and bathroom in the first floor are very small. Although the cottage is supposed to host six guests, I think the eating table is too small for more than four people. The pictures of the art deco window are not really accurate, because the window sill is not wide enough to sit there comfortably. Since old houses often smell musty, it would have been nice if the house had been ventilated and heated before we arrived. We also missed hooks in the entry hall for our jackets - luckily it didn´t rain during our stay so we just put them over a chair. In terms of price, I would have expected

We have just returned from a 2 week stay at carrow stables.

If you love walking and want a complete get away from hustle and bussel this is the place for you but be aware you will need your car alot. We met the owner and the renowned seamus the dog on day 1, very friendly and helpful. The cottage has all you could want but is getting a bit tired around the edges I think some tlc required soon and maybe just a tad better cleaning as dusty round edges, however only minor issue. We walked along the cliffs on many paths my 2 sons did a few longer yomps where they walked back from other places we visited such as sandy Bay. We visited Port isaac, tintagell, Eden project, lanhydroc House and gardens, Padstow. The Bush inn a short stroll up the road does lovely food and very nice staff if you don't want to cook, nice local cider too. It would have been lovely if tree could be pruned so sunsets could be seen out to sea from big window in lounge. It now obscures most of view and sunsets are quite spectacular. Better sheets would also be good, again clean and OK but they are rough even my 15year old commented on them. Thankyou for a lovely holiday we have all returned home much more chilled than when we arrived.

This cottage is in the most beautiful, tranquile location with a wonderful view over the pastures and the sea.

Good grounds for children to play in & lots of space to lounge around. The beds were comfortable but we found the un-ironed linen sheets & duvet covers were very scratchy. A table in the Main bedroom bathroom could do with a little table for toiletries etc. The kitchen was really well equipped but the over head extractor fan was very greasy & dirty. The hostess was charming & very eager to help accommodate us with our queries and made the stay even more special by her attentiveness. Seamus her dog was an absolute delight and well loved by us all. We will definitely be looking to stay here again. Thank you from us all.

We had a great week at Carrows Stables.

Very clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Paula is a wonderful host and her Bedlington Whippet Seamus is just the friendliest dog you could wish to meet. The location is stunning and the large garden is a pleasure to spend time in. Nearby walks and beaches are lovely and the Bush Inn just up the road is very nice and serves very good food. We shall certainly be looking to return to Carrows in the not too distant future. Thank you.

We had a wonderful stay at Carrows Stable over Christmas, it was a lovely warm cosy home from home ,with wonderful views.

The kitchen was well equipped so I was able to cook Xmas dinner with no difficulties. We all slept well in the comfortable bedrooms. There was even a bean bag reading nook that was lovely. As a family of three generations we had a special Christmas after a difficult couple of years . Carrows stable is a gem.

The previous review mentioned the lumpy mattress - I would agree.

Other than that I thought the cottage was absolutely delightful, a little gem tucked away in the middle of nowhere. The walking is superb in the local area, the Bush Inn was a real experience! Clearer instructions on parking and what to do with rubbish/recycling would be useful. Overall a great few days away and somewhere where we will be returning!

we really enjoyed our stay and overall loved the cottage however all 4 of us on all the beds found the mattresses very uncomfortable hard and lumpy.

loved the extra touches with sweets and showergel provided

Super property, ideally located for some breathtaking walks.

The silence and tranquility of the property lends itself to a truly relaxing break.

Wow - what a beautiful place !

The stables is a genuine character cottage to get away from it all : secluded , comfortable and with the most amazing outlook. The local amenities are great with the tearooms , a fantastic pub and cafe and shop in walking distance. Loved the decor and Paula was a great host . Seamus the dog really made the holiday special for our two dog obsessed girls. Would highly recommend if you want a beautiful place to stay and unwind with games a plenty and lovely walks all around .

We have just returned from a fantastic and memorable holiday at Carrows Stable.

What a fabulous place to stay. The location is definitely best described as rural. There is only the Old Rectory that the stables is attached to, a church, a farm and a very popular tea rooms within the immediate area. There is a local shop a few miles away and a pub about 5 minutes walk away. On the plus side, you are a few minutes walk away from the coastal foot path. Fantastic place for dogs! We loved the accommodation, found the facilities excellent and the property has great character. But, be aware. There is no phone signal at the house at all and WiFi is very limited in the property. All the better for it if you're looking for a beautiful, quiet and tranquil spot to stay. The location is just breath-taking. Watching the summer sunset from the enormous arched lounge window every evening and listening to the church bells on a Thursday night are memories I will hold dear for a very long time. If you are interested in the local history, there is tons to explore right on your doorstep. The property itself is very interesting and the church, right next door is fascinating. Well worth checking out.

A most beautiful location.

A cosy property and a delightful owner. We will surely visit again.

Fantastic cottage with beautiful orchard and garden,wonderful host very friendly and with a gorgeous little dog.

very beds and bedding and fully equipped kitchen.ideal for walking the coastal path and with easy access to bude and other North Cornwall towns and beaches

The property advises that it has Wifi, however the signal is not that good as the router is based in the owners property a few meters away.

With no phone service it is considered that a good WiFi service should be provided. The beds downstairs were very firm and not very comfortable, the beds upstairs were not too bad, one very soft, the other firm. The furniture within the property was relatively basic but considered reasonable for a place that accepts pets. The place was clean, well equipped and in a lovely rural location ideal for walks, but a trip by car is needed to local facilities. The location was also very quiet.

We had a brilliant time at Carrows Stables.

It was the most delightful setting, perfect for the dogs as we were literally on the Coastal Path. The Rectory Tea Rooms were just up the hill for a delicious cream tea, along with the pub down the road serving excellent food. We were accompanied each early morning by the owners dog Seamus, which was fun for our two. We definitely will come back next year. Working out how to use the TV was an experience, but we got the hang of it. There is no mobile phone signal, unless you walk up the hill, so if you want mobile/wifi free holiday, this is the place for you. Cannot fault the facilities. My only drawback, was that some of the beds were far too hard for me, so I surfed bedrooms each night !!

Just come home from a 3 might stay at Carrows Stable in Morwenstow, Cornwall.

The sat nav directs you to the hamlet and not the property but if you head for the local church you'll find it just below it. The cottage is very clean and really well equipped with big comfy beds and everything you will need. Really dog friendly too! All rooms furnished to a high standard. The local area is great for the walks and the views but the South West coastal path can be very challenging! The views make the steep pathways worthwhile even if you do need a few moments to get your breath back! The cottage is around 5 minutes from the one and only local pub, The Bush Inn. Thankfully the pub is excellent so you don't need anything else! Great selection of beers and the food is amazing! Good choice, freshly cooked and reasonable prices. The local cheese board was out of this world! Highly recommend the pub and thanks to all the staff who made us welcome. We would highly recommend Carrows Stable for couples, families and groups of up to 6.

Breathtaking location, The Stables were comfortable and well equipped.

A lovely pub within a 5 minute walk and wonderful walks and beaches on the doorstop. Hostess could not have been more helpful, will definitely be returning.

superb location, lovely comfortable cottage.

close to walks, places of interest, a pub serving good food and all dog friendly.

It was much appreciated that the heating had been put on along with lights for our arrival.

The cottage was very clean, spacious and very warm and cosy. The entrance had flagstones which were perfect for coping with muddy boots after walks across the cliffs. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay over Christmas and would recommend it.

Everything was a described and we enjoyed a very relaxing few days.

The beds are super comfy and the area lovely and peaceful and yet has cracking walks right on the doorstep. Extra bonus was The Bush Inn 5 mins walk away which was very cosy and friendly and served great food. It was great to find such a nice cottage that allowed dogs!

Lovely cottage with beautiful views and amazing coastal path walks straight from the door.

Can't wait to come back again!

This lovely comfortable property was ideal for our dog walking holiday with all we needed the owner was very friendly and we felt able to ask her for anything if we needed to.

The location was ideal for us to walk straight from our door o to several dog walks and a short drive away where several lovely beaches. We would recommend this accommodation to anyone with dogs and who likes walking

It would be useful to have cereal bowls & pasta dishes.

We had to buy 2 bowls to cook our porridge in the microwave as there was nothing. Only a small thing. The property was very comfortable and warm. We loved it.

We had a lovely time.

Only thing for us was it smelt of wet dogs when we arrived, which with second thoughts dogs are allowed there so we did give it a second clean which did help with the smell.and no tumble dryer as is said to be there .views are beautiful from the window in sitting area .walks are spectacular.and loved the history which is associated with the cottage vicarage and church.lots of interesting things to do and see .lady who owns the let is lovely and helpful and informative.

The setting of this property was absolutely stunning and was lovely and secluded - beautiful 13th century inn close by within walking distance - lounge area wasvery relaxing after a day of coastal walks The Netflix on the lounge TV did not work and we couldn’t find a tumble dryer as described in features of property.

Bedrooms very nicely decorated with plenty of cupboard space - the beds definitely require new mattresses as they were terribly uncomfortable to sleep on especially in master bedroom probably due to the slatted base of bed Overall a lovely holiday was had at Carrows Stable with the property views being super

Lovely cottage in a most beautiful tranquil location, perfect for coastal walks and excellent with a dog.

Owner in next door vicarage kept to herself but was always available if needed. Mattress in main bedroom rather dipped and not the most comfortable and downstairs twin rather dark but well equipped kitchen , lovely bathrooms and comfy , if fairly basic sitting room with beautiful sea view. The friendly tea rooms in village did the best cream tea plus good home made light lunches . Pub within walking distance did very reasonable food too. Other good restaurants we found in Bude including Temple and Bank tapas are within a 20 minute drive but need to book ahead.

Access to property very tight for larger cars Owner very helpful and pleasant
