Swim in the pool, play tennis, go fishing and challenge each other to tournaments in the games room when you stay at this Nordic-style lodge in Cornwall. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom, triangular-shaped holiday home is set on a well-maintained site, with an array of leisure facilities, near Kilkhampton, 5.5 miles from Bude.
Cross your private patio to enter at ground-floor level. Step inside to emerge in an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner that encompasses much of the ground floor. Head over to the kitchen to unpack your groceries and pop the Cornish pasties you have bought for lunch into the oven to warm. The kitchen has been fitted out with everything you are likely to need for preparing food during your stay. The lounge features comfortable seating arranged around a Smart TV. Open the French doors on hot days so everyone can wander in and out. Also downstairs is your bathroom, which has both a bath and a shower. At the end of each exciting day away, head carefully up the open-tread stairs to the double and twin bedroom on the first floor. Have breakfast on the patio on fine mornings and enjoy the lakeside views. Grill supper on the BBQ here too. Treat yourself to a swim, sauna and bubbling hot tub in the shared leisure area. Try your hand at fishing or stroll by the lake. There is parking for one car beside the lodge, with extra space nearby.
Head into Bude to shop, dine out and spend sunny days on Summerleaze Beach. From here, you can venture out along a section of the South West Coast Path. The National Trust’s Sandymouth Bay, 3.5 miles away, is a beautiful stretch of coastline for spending time on the sand. Take the children to the Milky Way Adventure Park, 10.5 miles away.
