About this property

Foreshore - sleeps 16 guests in 9 bedrooms

With an enclosed private garden, a golf course right on your doorstep and a short walk to Bude's beautiful beaches or bustling town, Foreshore is a brilliant base where you can leave the car parked up all week and relax…

Inside

This spacious Bude holiday home enjoys all the modern comforts whilst retaining elegant historical charm, features of which can be seen as you are welcomed into the home by the pretty wooden porch and beautifully tiled entrance hallway. Once inside, you'll find the communal areas on the ground floor; the large living room features comfy sofas and golf course views as well as a pool table — a brilliant addition for family games nights! Along the hall, you'll find the bright and airy kitchen diner with multiple skylights and windows allowing for ample natural light. This is a wonderful social space, complete with a kitchen island and everything you need to cater for large groups. A WC can also be found just off the kitchen.

All bedrooms are located across the first and second floors, which are both split-level. Ascending to the first floor of this spacious Bude holiday home, you'll find the first five bedrooms. There are two lovely king sized rooms — one of which is the master. The master king enjoys large windows with golf course views and a small, pretty balcony where you can breathe in the fresh Cornish air and enjoy distant sea views towards Crooklets beach. There's also a twin room overlooking the golf course, two single rear facing bedrooms and two bathrooms which both have walk in showers.

The remaining four bedrooms are found on the top floor. On this level, you'll find a rear facing twin and king, followed by a further king and twin which enjoy front-facing views across the peaceful golf course. Completing this floor are two bathrooms — one with a walk in shower and the other with a shower over the bath. Enjoy a peaceful soak in the tub here after a long day at the beach…

Outside

Foreshore enjoys a lovely private garden at the rear, accessed via steps leading down from the kitchen. There's plenty of space for little ones to play and dogs to roam, as well as ample seating. Enjoy a fabulous barbecue in the sheltered garden and dine al fresco, enjoying a sundowner or two after the day's adventures. There's also a garage at the rear which can be used to securely store surfboards, beach gear and bikes and the outside tap is handy for washing off sandy toes.

Things we love

One of the best things about Foreshore is its fantastic location, meaning there's certainly no shortage of things to do. This spacious Bude holiday home is just a simple stroll to Bude's brilliant sandy beaches in one direction and the bustling town centre in the other where there's a multitude of eateries and shops — not to forget the golf course is practically on the doorstep! For those seeking adventure, we recommend trying out one of the many surf schools on offer, such as Bude Surfing Experience who offer surf, paddle boarding and SUP yoga lessons. There's also the famous Bude Sea Pool which is a must visit — the semi-natural tidal pool is a historical landmark in Bude and offers a safe haven for wild swimming. If you're thinking about visiting out of season, wrap up warm and explore the wild beauty of the South West Coast Path which can be enjoyed at any time of the year. Foreshore is the ideal place to host multi-generational families or large groups of friends with plenty of bedrooms to choose from and ample space to relax and unwind.

Great family property

Great space, large rooms, comfortable. Enough room for our party of 12 to mix together or have time on their own. Dining area is so nice to seat all around the huge table for family meals. So close to the beach yet far enough away to be quiet when in the house.

Perfectly placed to enjoy Bude at its best

We have stopped at lots of self catering accommodation over the years and we all commented on how well the house was equipped from plenty of sharp knives to freezer fridge Space and storage to a fabulous garden. Highly recommend and we will be back.

Half Term with the family

The property was in a great location and lived up to its description. The only slight moan was the cleanliness of some of it , dust on the skirting and mess under beds. Overall thou a great place to stay.

Response from VrboOwner on 14 November 2022
Thank you very much indeed for taking the time to send this review across Pete - the team work incredibly hard and at a very high & consistent standard. Having exchanged emails to seek clarity upon you comments - it seems on this occasion there was some dust on a few skirting boards & 1 item of cardboard wedged down the side of a bed that had somehow been overlooked. Reassuringly, everything else was gleaming. Unfortunately, prior to your arrival we undertook some redecoration work & it seems that in some areas the dust had not fully settled - our apologies for this. Most importantly, in all our communication to guests we do request that any issues, big or small are flagged with us upon noticing them so that we can resolve them for you without impact to your stay - in this instance we weren't told so could not intervene to resolve. We we pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us & look forward to welcoming you back in the future. I also hope that accessing the property from 9am on the day of your arrival rather than 5pm was a welcome bonus too. J

Check in was very easy. The key was in the keysafe and all instructions were received. The kitchen was well equipt with everything that we needed. The location simply can't be beaten! A short stroll to the beach and not far to the town centre (easily walkable for our young grandchildren). Perfect for our family ranging from our young grandchildren, adult children and ourselves. We would love to return

The house is in a great location only 5 minutes walk to the beach and 10 minutes to Bude centre. Lovely and clean property and communication with the owner really easy. Our group ranged from 4 years to 65 and this property was ideal for a large family gathering. The secure garden was ideal for our dogs. I would highly recommend a stay at Foreshore.

Family Holiday At Foreshore Bude

Overall the property was large, well appointed and it's location was ideal for accessing the beach. We did however have an issue with a lack of water pressure to the showers on the upper floors for the entire week. Not ideal when catering for a large family group. James did arrange for a plumber to come out straight away, however the problem remained unresolved by the time we left. Otherwise an excellent property.

Thank you for taking the time to review Godfrey, I very much appreciate it. I am glad you had a good stay with us - the location of Foreshore is superb. Unfortunately you did experience a problem with the water pressure being reduced ( but still working) due to a faulty pressure regulation valve. This part was ordered but unfortunately did not arrive in time due to a national shortage. Because boiler pressure is so dangerous, we could not run the risk of fitting something substandard during your stay and were at the mercy of the plumbing suppliers. I hope the wine and contribution to a meal helped by means of an apology for something beyond our control. Best wishes James

Fantastic location and facilities. Perfect for 4 families.

Great week in Bude. Large & well stocked kitchen ideal. Details such as x2 dish-washers & huge table make a difference with 16 people. The lounge with pool/snooker table and TV was a perfect outlet for the children, with the adults mainly using the kitchen to socialise. With the beach less than 5 minutes away, people could come & go as they pleased, without the drama & restrictions of loading the car Finally Bude is a great town, with something for everyone (shops, sweets, surf boards, pubs) and only a 10 minute walk away. Already planning our trip for next year

Amazing property with great views and excellent location.

I cannot express how lucky we were to stay at this property. We had initially booked another home through a separate company in Dec 2017, this fell through last minute and I honestly thought we were not going to be having our annual holiday. Luckily I came across this property and it was available. Firstly the house was amazing, clean and spacious. There was plenty of community spaces such as a large kitchen with all essentials and a table big enough to fit us all . We also used this space for board games and cards. There is plenty fridge space and all the items needed (utensils, crockery, 2 kettles, etc). Additional to this was a big living room, half was taken up with sofas, a TV, DVD player. Adjacent to this was a pool table that provided us with endless hours of fun in the evening. There is also a downstairs WC with sink. On the first floor there are 2 single bedrooms, one king (TV), a twin and a double with access to the front balcony (this provided amazing views of the golf course and if you looked to the right, Crooklets beach). There is also 2 full shower rooms. On the Second floor there were 2 twin rooms, a king (TV), and double (TV). There was also a full shower room and bathroom. All rooms were clean and the linen provided in excellent condition. There was plenty of space to store luggage and put away clothes. The garden was in good condition with plenty of seating with the endless sound track of crashing waves. Dogs were allowed but had to stay downstairs - this was easy as we used the stair gate at the bottom of the stairs. The location is perfect with Crooklets beach less than 5 minutes walk away and Bude town just 15 minutes. Just over half hour drives to access beautiful villages such Port Issac, Boscastle, Tintagel, etc. There is lovely pub/restaurant at the end of the road that offers delicious food - this was 5 minutes. Nick who was our main contact in arranging this was excellent and accommodating. There was no need for us to contact him as everything went perfectly during our stay. I would stay here again as we had very positive experience which did not break the bank.
