A great space thoughtfully furnished snd dominated by long wooden table just right for feedback on the day's activity over a hearty meal for ten. (Needs willing chefs and washers-up.) Good situation in historic farming country and with access (through Cornish lanes) to all the beaches of Bude. Our fifth stay here following subtle hints from family members of 3 generations. Helen is a charming and thoughtful host

Had a fabulous week at The Old Granary with my family. The house was huge and we had plenty of space both inside & out. The kitchen was well equipped and we had everything we needed. Helen was a great host who kept in touch and helped us out when needed. Lots to do in both the cottage and locally. Highlights for us was how entertained our grandchildren were with the cows and tractors from the farm. Definitely a great place.
