Spring Tide Roundhouse, East Thorne

Spring Tide Roundhouse is a circular two-bedroom lodge at East Thorne, a rural site inland from Bude on the north Cornwall coast. The round design gives the property its name and creates an unusual interior layout, sleeping 4 in 2 bedrooms with 1 bathroom. Outside, a private hot tub, BBQ, and garden mean the outdoor space is as functional as the inside. A wood burner provides warmth through cooler months. WiFi and parking are included, and the from-price is £336 per night. The washing machine makes longer stays practical.

The nearest coast is Sandymouth Beach, 3.6 miles away - a National Trust beach reached by a steep wooded valley path, with rock pools at low tide and no commercial development. Northcott Mouth is 3.8 miles and Duckpool 3.9 miles, both reached via the same stretch of dramatic clifftop path. Bude town, with its surf beaches and canal, is roughly 10 minutes by car and has the full range of shops, cafes, and surf hire.

Best for couples or small families of 4 looking for a countryside base with self-contained hot tub facilities and easy access to north Cornwall's surf coast. Good for off-season breaks when the hot tub adds genuine value after a day on the coast path. Not ideal for guests who need to be within walking distance of a beach or town amenities, as the East Thorne site is a rural position requiring a car for most activities.
