Seagull Cottage

About this property

The tricolon “Location, Location, Location” is a real estate cliché which has been bandied about for almost a century, but in the case of Seagull Cottage it can be applied with hand-on-heart. Nestled on the outskirts of the delightful coastal town of Bude in Cornwall is this superb detached cottage, Seagull Cottage. Set over two floors and sleeping up to six guests, Seagull Cottage enjoys seaside views and easy access to the beach and coastal path, as well as being within driving distance to Tintagel Castle. Pull into the convenient off-road parking space outside the property, where you can unload your bags with ease before stepping into the property to begin your holiday. Be welcomed into the spacious living/dining room, where you can look forward to snuggling up in front of your favourite film with a glass of wine as the woodburning stove crackles nearby. Whip up a tasty home-cooked meal in the well-equipped kitchen for your guests to be enjoyed around the dining room table as you toast to a wonderful holiday. As your eyes grow weary, retire to one of three bedrooms, the first being a tastefully decorated double-size with sea views on the ground floor, along with a double bedroom and a bathroom, where you can freshen up in style. Climb the stairs past the charming porthole window offering a sea view, to find the final bedroom, a generous double with TV, along with a dressing room. Completing the first floor is a bathroom, where you can enjoy a hot soak in the bath after a day of exploring. Explore your local surroundings and head into the seaside town of Bude, where you can spend the day at Crooklets beach soaking up the sun or building sandcastles with the littles ones, visit Bude Sea Pool which offers glorious views out to the sea and beyond, or play a few holes at the excellent nearby golf club. Be sure to make a stop at The Heritage Centre at Bude Castle, which was constructed in 1830, where you can brush up on the local history followed by a warming cup of tea at the onsite café. For those looking to explore further, take the drive to Tintagel, where you will find the National Trust sites of Glebe Cliff and the Tintagel Old Post Office which stems for the 1300’s and houses and King Arthurs Great Halls with impressive stain glass windows and guide on hand with a wealth of information. Grab your walking boots and head up to the landmark site of Tintagel Castle, thought to be the birthplace of King Arthur, its remarkable ruins, rugged cliff-top surroundings and dramatic sea views make for an unforgettable visit. Or, closer to hand- A few steps from the front door of the cottage and you find yourself on the South West Coast Path, a 630-mile waymarked footpath with wondrous views running from Somerset, through Devon and Cornwall and on into Dorset. Seagull Cottage is the perfect base for enjoying a refreshing break with loved ones, whilst making memories that will last a lifetime.
