A beautiful house, very clean and spacious, lovely indoor and outdoor seating areas. Incredible ocean views from several bedrooms. Joanne was really helpful in arranging our stay. Perfect location, 100metres to the beach, 10 metres to fish+chips!

Wonderful venue for my Mums 80th Birthday.

We had a wonderful stay in Bude . Jo the host was really supportive and helpful. I was with all my elderly relative's so the house was perfect for all our fun and games . We used all the local facilities so didn’t even need to cook. Views looking at the sea was wonderful . We will be back

Greta location

We liked our stay at The Beach house and loved it being so close to the beach, great location- and the pool going in twice a day. Jo was very helpful and accommodating.Thank you! They only thing I would say that it all looks a bit tired an that if we had been 12 if would have been tight squeeze in the lounge to all sit together and it is more suited for groups with children as bunk bed ( which we did know about)and the 6 Th bedroom with small single beds, which isn't shown in the photos and I had to inquire about...

Perfect house

Wonderful Property with fantastic views , A short walk from the bars and cafes in Bude either along the coast path or road . House has everything you need lots of kitchen equipment etc which was great as we cooked a lot . Beds were lovely and comfortable and a log burner was super snuggly in the lounge . Everything was fabulous ! ( a basic sweeping brush would be useful .) We would Recommend to everyone but then it would get too booked up !!! Thank you

Our Solstice break

Everyone loved the house , the children loved exploring the big house.! And of course being so near the beach! Our temporary home was warm, comfortable and clean and had everything we needed. We loved the old photographs, paintings, pictures and decor. It was a cared about house. We all wished we could have stayed longer. Thank you for making our stay such an enjoyable one. As we were leaving, we met the ladies who clean and set the house up ready for the next lot. They we're so lovely. We would like thank them too, for doing such a wonderful job.

Summer Surf Bude 2023

We all loved our stay at Beach House and Games Room with Table Tennis was a real winner with younger members of family. Position to beach was fantastic and having backyard to put wet suits, bikes etc very helpful. In short everything worked out well but did find one oven cooking for 10 was a bit more difficult and two would have made a big difference to the time it took to for mealtimes.

Perfect 70th birthday weekend!

We stayed at the Beach House as a group of 9 adults and 3 children for a long weekend to celebrate a special family birthday. The house was perfect with everything we needed for us all from age 6 months to 80! The kitchen was wonderfully equipped, the bedrooms had plenty of space. The dining table fitted us all around, and the close proximity to the beach was fantastic for accessible walking. There was room for all the shoes, the coats and the food & drink that comes with a large group! We had an amazing time in a fantastic location and would love to make a return trip!

Family Time...

I booked a weekend away for 10 of our family and it's always quite difficult to find the right sort of property. Luckily for me I found The Beach House and we had a fantastic weekend. Precious family time away together, a great location and long walks on the beach. Jo was so helpful with all of my endless questions and requests, nothing was too much trouble. Thanks!

Bude Holiday

The owner from start to finish was accommodating and easy to get hold of. The location of the property is fantastic; others have commented on the buildings in front of the house however we didn’t feel these distracted from the ever changing beautiful view we woke up to each morning. The house is so well equipped you couldn’t ask for more; beds extremely comfortable and overall stay was fantastic. If we are ever this way we again we will definitely return.

A new discovery

We were looking for a last minute booking as our cruise was cancelled. We found this lovely house in Bude which is where we have never been before. Everything was easy and straightforward to book. We had a great time and the area was lovely with plenty to do. We were also lucky with the weather. We loved the house and would definitely come back.

About the host

Hosted by Jo

Our family roots have been in Bude since the 18th century with links to the notoriously dangerous merchant sailing ships navigating in and out of Bude's harbour.

We have owned the Beach House since 1984 and have enjoyed many happy times there as a family and with friends over the years.
There are photographs in the house showing the timeless appeal of beach holidays from times gone by.
The artwork inspired by the house and it's surroundings adds to the character of the Beach House much of it painted by the house's owner.

We hope that you enjoy your holidays!
