This was our first family holiday in Bude and we had an amazing seven days staying in Den's bungalow; being able to return to each it day truly made the week more relaxing and enjoyable. The standard of cleanliness could not be improved upon, the layout is spacious and allows for various family members to break off from one another when wished for. It's a very peaceful area and we all slept soundly each night. Access to the beach and town is easy - we had no real need to use the car all week. And Den was a great communicator and always accessible if needed. We would not hesitate to return and are already discussing when to do so. Definitely one of the best holidays we have experienced as a family.

We had a lovely two weeks staying at Crooklets Reach. The house is comfortable and in an excellent location, you can easily walk into Bude town center or the beaches withing 10 mins.
The house has everything you need to stay with children too.
The garden was our favorite part with a beautifully constructed cornish slate wall, a grassy area and several seatine options including a place to dine outside.

Peaceful location
This lovely, private bungalow is in a very peaceful cul de sac location. It was very clean and had everything we needed. In just a 12 mins walk, we were on the beach. We were appreciative of the beach hut. We really enjoyed our week and would happily go there again.

Beach hut a bonus
An excellent week. All as described, and having the use of the beach hut above the (delightful) sea pool was really convenient. Recommend Zuma Jay in the town for wetsuit & bodyboard hire - good service and reasonable rates. Enjoyable walks to be had along the coastal path both ways.
Thanks Den & Carole :)

Great week away, would recommend
We have a great week away in Bude, the bungalow was perfect for our needs and in a great location about 10-15 minute walk to the beach and the same into town, with a big Sainsburys about a 10 minute walk away.
The property was really clean and well equipped and the communication from booking until our stay was really good.
The garden was really nice (we only wish we could’ve spent more time out there if the weather had been a bit better!) and the beach hut was an added bonus as it’s right about the sea pool so couldn’t be in a better location.
The property owners also left us some recommendations of local walks/places to eat which was appreciated! We’d definitely recommend The Plaice fish and chips (but phone ahead to order and then just collect as it was really busy). We’d also recommend Widemouth Manor at Widemouth Bay for dinner, the views are lovely, the food and service was great!
All in all, thank you so much for such a great property! We had a great time and really liked Bude.

A great accommodation in Bude
We have been using holiday rentals for several years now and this was one of the best.
The owners clearly put a great deal of effort and care into its presentation. It was a great to arrive after a long drive and find it so clean and welcoming.
The garden was great and very well maintained with plenty of seating across different parts for shade if needed. It was very well situated with easy walks to the beaches and town centre. We walked to the local Sainsbury’s on a couple of occasions rather than take the car not that we found parking there an issue at all.
The beaches in Bude are great. Soft sands, loads of little rock pools and puddles of sea water for very young kids to play in and they also have a big Sea Pool for something different. There was also a Beach Hut with the accommodation located directly above the Sea Pool which we used mainly for getting changed but useful to store your beach stuff there to save carrying it down each visit.
The accommodation was well equipped with everything you could need in the Kitchen and for Laundry and Ironing etc, etc.
All in all, we had a great holiday and would definitely go back to Bude and definitely re-visit this accommodation.

Bude - week away Summer 2019
Excellent property. Very spacious and clean. Great location within 10 minutes walk to the Bude beaches. Great garden with sun trap at the top. Icing on the cake is the beach hut that comes with the property which is handily located above the Bude saltwater swimming pool. First time in Bude but won’t be the last.

Pleasant holiday bungalow close to Bude
Very clean, well equipped and tastefully furnished bungalow - everything we needed for a week’s stay. Quiet neighbourhood with an easy stroll into Bude or to the beaches. The beach house by the sea pool was an added bonus. Easy communication with owners.
There are some pleasant touches - scones, jam and cream on arrival, plenty of fluffy towels, kitchen essentials, local information leaflets, enough chairs to sit in the garden, hose pipe to wash down wetsuits with outside racking to enable them to dry.

Fantastic Accommodation and location
Very well equipped bungalow with lovely living space for our family holiday including a safe enclosed garden for our toddler to play in . The beds were comfy and power shower good and the kitchen was filled with all the equipment you would need and more. The inclusion of a beach hut overlooking the outdoor sea pool was an added bonus which was also equipped with a kettle, chairs and somewhere to store wetsuits, etc. The location of the bungalow was so convenient for a gentle stroll to the beach or into town that we hardly used the car all week . And of course not forgetting the cream tea on arrival which set the tone for a very relaxed and comfortable stay in beautiful Bude. The owners have definitely put a lot of thought and investment into making this holiday home a joy to stay in and we look forward to booking again in the near future.

Well presented cottage in a great location near to golf course, town and beach
We had a great stay in this perfectly located cottage. It is in a neat and very quiet close that is walkable to the town of Bude and its beaches.
It was very nice to have some scones and cream on arrival as well as some basics such as milk, tea etc
The cottage was very clean and modern and had everything we needed for the week we were there - for 4 adults.
The use of the garden with a lovely seating area was a bonus.
Communication with the owners was perfect both before and after the holiday
All rooms, eg showers and kitchen were exceptionally clean, fully equipped with easily useable fittings and fixtures
The bedrooms were adequate for two people each with plenty of storage
Overall would not hesitate to return!

Immaculate holiday bungalow in great location
We felt immediately at home on arrival, and were delighted to see a cream tea waiting for us! I don't think we've ever stayed in a holiday property that was so well presented and equipped and being all on one level was perfect for us as one of our party has limited mobility. Were staying in a somewhat stormy week and we enjoyed sitting in the beach hut with a picnic and viewing the spectacular seas. Perfect location, being walking distance to town, beaches and golf! Owners couldn't have been more helpful. Would certainly return.

Beach hut - icing on the cake
A perfect holiday destination combined with a flawless bungalow with everything one could need, from crockery to tumble dryer.
For us, the beach hut was definitely well worth booking the bungalow for. It provided the family with a sea front base if you like, somewhere to offload beach stuff, sit and have a snack and a drink without sand getting everywhere, somewhere to relax and enjoy ourselves.
The owners were so lovely throughout, with nothing too much trouble. They bent over backwards to provide us with up to date information, and their communication was second to none.
We would highly recommend Crooklet's Reach, and hope to return in the not too distant future.
Thank you Den and Carole.

Great place to stay as a family!
We booked this property for a week's holiday with grandparents and our 8 month old daughter. The accommodation was everything we needed and more. It was well equipped with everything you would need. The garden was lovely to sit and relax in and safe for our daughter to crawl around. We also loved that it was a nice easy walk to the beach and town. The beach hut was a great addition and much appreciated by us all. It was great to have somewhere to store our belongings and also sit and enjoy a cup of tea looking out over the beach and sea pool. The property owners are very helpful and everything was extremley easy. We will definitely be back to stay in the future and would recommend this property to others.

A wonderful 'home from home' experience.
Got off to a perfect start - immaculately clean and welcoming. Ready to go cream tea greeted us.
Just got better and better - comfy beds, plenty of storage, modern and well appointed bathroom/en-suite facilities.
We loved the open plan aspect of living area as it meant ourselves, daughter, son-in-law, grandson were together whilst preparing, cooking food and chilling.
Fantastic, enclosed rear garden, we were able to relax when our young grandson played outside. Unfortunately due to weather we were unable to take full advantage ourselves!
We were highly impressed by the communications with the owners. Queries promptly responded to, and we very much appreciated being informed by them that the property was ready for early occupancy.
Hope to be back ourselves and would highly recommend to others.

Excellent holiday home
What a great holiday home! Nice location and really well maintained and equipped.The garden was great for children and for sitting out in the evening. Our group consisted of four adults, a three year old and 15 month old twins, so the beach hut was great for storing beach equipment for us all.
Great communication from Den, who was really helpful.
Would definitely recommend Crooklets Reach and would go there again.

Lovely bungalow with a great beach hut!
We stayed here with our 3 children aged 9, 7 & 5 and it was great.
The bungalow was lovely, very clean and had every amenity you could possibly need in a holiday home. The location is good with a short walk to the beach and town centre/shops.
The beach hut is a massive bonus, especially with 3 young children who love the beach and swimming. It overlooks the sea pool and the beach so could not be better located. It was also fully kitted out with chairs and gas camping stove etc.
We would definitely recommend the bungalow and beach hut to other people and would certainly consider going back again ourselves.
Overall we had a lovely time.

Perfect holiday accommodation in a great location
We have recently returned from a weeks holiday at Crooklets Reach in Bude and cannot recommend this accommodation highly enough.
The bungalow is situated in a quiet residential cul-de-sac with a gentle 15 minute stroll to the centre and beaches. Sainsbury and CoOp supermarkets are also close by.
We based our stay here but travelled to several tourist locations along the North Cornwall coast and also took in plenty of walks along the coast paths and canal.
The bungalow itself is very spacious with open plan kitchen living area. Whereas some holiday lets have cutlery and crockery limited to the number of guests (6 bowls, 6 plates etc), Crooklets Reach is very well equipped. Everything is spotlessly clean and well presented. The beds are very comfortable, there are two bathrooms and the kitchen has all modern appliances.
Before we arrived and at any time during the holiday, the owner Den was available with help and advice via phone, text or email.
We couldn't have wished for any more and hope to return in the not too distant future.
We would recommend this accommodation to couples and families of all ages.

A lovely cottage & hut that was perfect for us.
From the moment that we walked through the front door we were greeted with a holiday cottage that was perfect for us! And with a pint of milk and a packet of biscuits waiting for us in fridge we soon relaxed and settled in with a brew.
We found the cottage to be of a good size and we particularly liked the open plan kitchen/dining/living area. All the rooms were clean, bright and airy and decorated to a high standard. The beds were all comfortable.
My daughter particularly liked the bunk beds, the fairy lights and the resident teddy bear in the children's bedrooms! (we had to make sure that she had not packed him in her case upon leaving).
The fully equipped kitchen thoughtfully contained child friendly crockery which was most helpful, especially the cookie cutters for the wet afternoon! The well stocked games cupboard and bookcase kept us all occupied. The availability of the washing machine and tumble drier made life a lot easier, for when we couldn't use the washing line.
The gardens were kept lovely and a real suntrap when it did come out!
The location of the cottage is great for access to the town and beach. Crooklets beach and Sainsburys supermarket are within walking distance. On a couple of occasions we walked up to Crooklets beach and then up and over the headland and onto Summerleaze beach or into the town. That said with a young child we did find it a bit easier to take the car and park over in the main beach car parks.
One of our favourite things about the cottage was access to the beach hut over by the sea pool. Most days we would take our things and picnic lunch up there to eat before heading on to the beach for a couple of hours on Summerleaze beach. Again, like the cottage it is fully equipped with all the things that you might need.
Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our time in Bude and the cottage. In the past we have traveled a lot and stayed in a lot of places including a lot of occasions before we had a young child with us. From my experience this cottage is perfect for either a family or a group of adults as it more than caters for both sets of people.
Thank you for a lovely time ! xx
