Beachcomber

Beachcomber is a ground-floor apartment in the Brightlands complex on Maer Lane, Bude - a quiet residential stretch above the north Cornwall coast. It sleeps 4 in a double and a twin bedroom, with one shower room.

Inside, the layout is straightforward: a double bedroom, a twin, and a shower room with walk-in shower and heated towel rail. The kitchen and dining area sit together with a TV, while a separate sitting room provides additional living space. WiFi is included, along with a microwave, electric oven and hob, and a fridge/freezer.

A private rear patio with outdoor furniture opens onto a shared south-facing lawn - a practical space for morning coffee or afternoon reading. Off-road parking for 1 car is included. There is a small step up into the property and a step down to the patio garden.

Northcott Mouth Beach is 800 metres away, a dog-friendly stretch of coastline with rock pools and the distinctive Devil's Cauldron tidal formation. Crooklets Beach, Bude's main surf beach, sits 0.7 miles to the south. The town centre is within walking distance, with the nearest pub just 0.2 miles away and Bude's tidal sea pool on Summerleaze Beach a short walk beyond.

Suits a couple or small family who want a ground-floor base within reach of Bude's beaches. Less good for anyone who needs step-free access, with a small step up into the property and a step down to the patio garden.
