About this property
The Dairy is a handsome converted stone barn on the 200 acre Lee Barton Farm estate, just 5.5 miles from the centre of Bude. Step inside to find welcoming accommodation and a host of original features including high ceilings. There's a bright sitting area with full height windows and a dining area with table and chairs. The kitchen is well equipped and has everything you'll need during your holiday. On the first floor, three attractive bedrooms, a double with en-suite shower room and two twin rooms provide flexible accommodation for a family or group of friends. Outside is a smart gravelled patio area with seating for you to enjoy a meal or morning coffee. Quiet yet close to beaches, this is an ideal spot for a peaceful holiday.
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.
