Crabbe Cottage

Sea views extend from the enclosed garden at Crabbe Cottage, a two-bedroom cottage for four in Stibb, a hamlet within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty about 2 miles south of Bude. A separate decked area looks across the countryside, with a barbecue for meals outside - the garden and deck give two different outlooks, sea and countryside, from the same property.

One double and one twin bedroom share a single bathroom. The combined lounge, kitchen and dining room has a wood burner. Wi-Fi, parking, a dishwasher and washing machine are provided, and dogs are accepted. A footpath crosses the fields to the local pub, useful for an evening out without needing the car.

Northcott Mouth Beach is 1.6 miles away, followed by Crooklets Beach at 1.7 miles and Summerleaze Beach at 1.7 miles. Widemouth Bay, with its broad sandy beach and consistent surf, is also about 2 miles from the hamlet. Bude itself has two supermarkets and a free sea pool on Summerleaze Beach, while Boscastle and Port Isaac are each within a short drive. The Poughill guide covers the nearest recorded town.

Twenty-three holidaycottages reviews give Crabbe Cottage a rating of 4.7 out of 5, with cleanliness scoring 5 and equipment, comfort and location each at 4.

**Best for:** A family or two couples wanting sea-view garden space, a wood burner and three beaches within a couple of miles.

**Less good for:** Four guests wanting more than one bathroom, visitors needing step-free accommodation or anyone expecting an EV charger or hot tub.
