10/10 Excellent
"We’ve been to Bude a number of times, but this is the best accommodation we have ever stayed in. The location is second to none, right on top of Summerleaze Beach. The accommodation is stunning - huge rooms with high quality furnishings and fittings. And it’s all topped off by lovely little extra touches - cream tea and other provisions on arrival. We will definitely go back!"

"Fantastic location for everything- beach, canal (fishing, paddle board, pedalos), pub/other food places, shops, fishing tackle shop! All within 5-10min walk. Quiet location. Lovely shower and useful additional toilet in main bedroom with under basin storage. Great (warm) outdoor shower, very handy when coming back from beach. Decent size carpark space to leave car for the whole holiday! Gina was quick to reply and very helpful. Can’t wait to revisit Bude and would definitely recommend the Chalet."

Sunrise Guest House

10/10 Excellent
"We had a lovely short stay at the Sunrise. The hosts contacted us prior to arrival to forewarn us of the road closures for the Bude Carnival and allowing us flexibility with check in (should we have required it) because of the event. When arriving we were met with a warm and friendly welcome. We had a wonderful stay and the breakfasts both mornings were excellent. The B&B is decorated to a high standard and has a lovely cosy welcoming feel. Would recommend and will stay there again on future visits."

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely cottage, ideal location with pleasant walks to beach and town. We appreciated ithe kitchen was fully equipped and it was always warm. Two toilets, a shower and bath were great. Clean on arrival and easy to keep clean during the week as there was no excessive clutter. Comfortable beds and quiet neighbours, actually didn't hear them all week. Owners responsive and pleasant. Definitely recommend staying here for a Bude break! If there's no parking directly outside, there are some nearby side streets with free overnight and weekend parking"
