The Folly is a gorgeous cottage in a peacefully rural location within easy reach of Bude, Widemouth Bay and other beautiful beaches on Cornwall's north coast. It is one of six stunning self-catering cottages on the Hele Barton Estate, but completely self-contained with no nearby neighbours, boasting a private garden of a third of an acre, a fire-pit and an outdoor hot tub, along with access to the estate's coarse fishing lake. The three-bedroom cottage sleeps up to six people and is perfect for families and friends.
North Cornwall is one of Britain's favourite holiday destinations because the landscape is just beautiful. The rolling countryside is incredibly fertile, which means the local produce is fantastic. Walking and cycling are popular all year round, especially with the breathtaking South West Coast Path giving easy access to panoramic views over the Atlantic. The north Cornish coast has a mix of sheltered harbours, vast beaches and rocky coves, so there is something for everyone, and watching the sunset over the ocean is a memory you'll hold close forever.
The Folly's rural position gives guests direct access to lovely walks through woodland and pastures where you may spot badgers and deer at sunset. The three coarse fishing ponds on the owner's estate are stocked with carp and tench and open from dusk until dawn 365 days a year, which makes the cottage perfect for keen anglers and an ideal spot to get away from it all. The estate's grounds are available for guests to use so pack a picnic and find a shady tree for the perfect day out.
The Folly is private and self-contained. The other cottages on Hele Barton Estate sleep between two and eight guests and are perfect for friends or extended family looking to holiday together - please see the owner's website for details.
