Cottage to rent with a log fire / woodburner in Bude (2mls E)

Accommodation details

A charming Cornish cottage where families play, sunsets glow, and animals wait to say hello. Tucked within the historic village of Stratton, just moments from the sandy beaches of Bude, Kitts Cottage is a place to slow down and savour the best of Cornwall and Devon. Whether you come with children eager for adventure or as a couple seeking a peaceful retreat, this charming 400 year old cottage blends rustic character with modern comfort and heartfelt hospitality. Set near a main road with excellent access to both counties, Kitts Cottage offers a private entrance, off-road parking, and its own enclosed garden — perfect for morning coffees or summer barbecues as the sky turns gold.

Inside the cottage is full of warmth and charm; with low ceilings throughout, a glowing wood burner, and a well-equipped kitchen complete with dishwasher. The bathroom is conveniently situated on the ground floor, while upstairs you’ll find two cosy bedrooms — one double and one twin — designed for quiet nights after busy, happy days. A large separate utility room provides secure storage for surfboards, bikes, or walking gear.

Your own washing machine and tumble dryer means that you can always be clean and dry. Outside, children may play freely on the climbing frame, and guests may enjoy meeting and helping to feed the resident animals by arrangement with the owners. The owners aim to ensure you have the best stay possible — nearby if needed, but never intruding on your peace. From Kitts Cottage, the coast calls.

Explore Bude’s family-friendly beaches, dog-welcoming cafés, and sea pool. Or wander the South West Coast Path and discover the dramatic beauty of Boscastle, Tintagel, Clovelly, and the airfield museum at Davidstow. Whether you visit for sunlit summer days or a snug winter break by the fire, Kitts Cottage invites you to make lasting memories in one of Cornwall’s most enchanting corners.
