About this property

Finest Retreats | Rosemint Cottage

Rosemint Cottage is set in the peaceful village of Stratton on the outskirts of Bude. Truly the best of both worlds, it is only a couple of miles from the seaside, beaches and ice creams, but is a gloriously private hidden retreat transporting guests into a world of creativity and offering a uniquely refined holiday experience surrounded by green countryside.

Inside, Rosemint combines the rustic charm of bohemian beach living with sleek and stylish modern convenience. Exposed whitewashed bricks, vaulted ceilings and a spiral staircase are just some of the unique and playful features of this special home. Gather around the dining table for vibrant feasts at breakfast or dinner, whilst a double-sided wood burner roars in cooler months or the french doors are flung open when it’s warm.

The kitchen is tastefully styled with brass fixtures and fittings exuding luxury and opulence. Excellently equipped, there is everything you need for those wonderful family meals together, including a slimline dishwasher and a Nespresso coffee machine.
The main living area boasts style and colour alongside characterful antique trunks and trinkets. Along with the plush sofa and armchair, there is also a beautifully dressed window seat from which to admire the rolling hills, and a hanging hammock chair - great fun to curl up in with your favourite book.

The house sleeps up to six adults and two children in total across four bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each of the bedrooms has its own distinct feel as well as crisp cotton sheets of hotel quality. There are two king-size bedrooms on the ground floor, one having its own en-suite shower room. The children's room has medium size bunk beds, suitable for children up to roughly 8-9 years old. The third bedroom offers two small-double beds up on an open mezzanine level, accessed by a spiral staircase - brilliantly suited to older children, teenagers or just the adventurous at heart!

You will also find a lavish family bathroom, beautifully appointed with a deep soak free-standing bath, separate shower enclosure and bespoke hand basin.

Outside, the garden space has plenty to offer, with a generously sized terrace and decking area, lawn, and side patio. The decking area has table and chairs to seat six comfortably, and even a swinging egg chair to relax in. A great place for play or relaxation, guests can enjoy morning coffee in the sun or a glass of something fizzy in the evening with the fire pit alight.
 
For those who love an outdoor dip, there is an outside bath tub on the side patio, with taps for both hot and cold, so whether it's an outdoor soak under the stars, or a cold water plunge to wake you up, you can relax your way.

Book your stay at Rosemint Cottage directly on the Finest Retreats website, and start looking forward to those sublime interiors!

Kleiner, aber auch gemütlicher als erwartet
Das Haus war nicht leicht zu finden. Der Parkplatz in der Einfahrt war für unseren T5-Bus mit Fahrradträger knapp bemessen. Das Häuschen war modern und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die Spülmaschine ist eher ein Spülmaschinchen und die Sitzgelegenheiten sind für 6 Personen gerade so ausreichend. Probleme mit dem Müll und mit der Dusche konnten schnell gelöst werden. Eine vergessene Ladestation wurde nicht nachgeschickt, obwohl wir die Übernahme des Portos zusicherten.

Schönes geschmackvolles Häuschen. Gute Lage, etwas klein für 4 Erwachsene und 4 Kinder, aber alles in allem top!

Great design features - will definitely book again!
We stayed at Rosemint Cottage in January 2023 for 5 nights. The cottage is well located with the village close to Bude and the coastal paths and beaches. There's a post office walking distance from the cottage where you can pick up firewood and other essentials which was very convenient. Larger stores are a short drive. Our dog loved the place and certainly enjoyed sleeping in front of the log burner after a long days' walk. The view from the front of the place is just spectacular at dawn and watching the sunrise from the bay windows with a coffee was our morning treat. It was a little too cold to enjoy the garden but the dip tank did get some use after a chilly sea dip, a hot outdoor bath was a fun luxury. The beds were comfortable and the cottage is very neat with some great design features. It's open plan but the space is well designed with different areas for different uses. We'd definitely book again, perhaps in the summer months so we can enjoy the garden more and make use of the BBQ. 3 adults and 1 (very happy) dog.

An excellent Retreat
My wife and I recently stayed at Rosemint Cottage in Bude. We had an excellent stay in this brilliantly kept cottage. We found the cottage to be an excellent retreat and a great place to relax in. We stayed when the weather was quite cold so we got some good use out of the log burner. While we didn't get to use the outdoor area (due to weather), this also looks like a great space to spend time in with outdoor cooking space and seating areas enjoying outstanding views across the countryside. The Cottage is close to Bude itself with many great restaurants and stores to explore. We are definitely looking to visit Rosemint cottage again!

Great garden and cute cottage
Cute fun cottage. Good location. Fridge was very small and kitchen was missing a few things like a bread knife and caffetiere (we bought one for the cottage) but good living space. Very steep steps to mezzanine beds not suitable for kids. Great garden decking and swing seat.
