Burn Coastal Retreat
Resort overview
The superior holiday cottages are located at Burn Coastal Retreat near Bude in Cornwall. Since the initial conversion from the original 200 year old farm buildings, Burn Coastal Retreat has grown steadily. There is a choice of studio, one bed, two bed and three bed units, many of which have inherited the tremendous character of the original historic buildings. All 32 cottages and apartments have been individually designed to blend in with the natural surroundings, and are constructed from traditional Cornish building materials. Development of a further 19 units is envisaged for the future. Each of the small blocks stands within its own well landscaped area, with each unit enjoying a high degree of privacy from its neighbours. The accommodation is superbly furnished including a fully fitted and equipped kitchen, with dishwasher, refrigerator and microwave, satellite television, video, radio cassette and CD player. All bed linen, towels, glassware, cooking utensils, crockery and cutlery are supplied. The units have double glazing and central heating.
On site facilities include a wide range of indoor and outdoor leisure facilities, including a bar, heated indoor swimming pool, sauna, Jacuzzi hot tub, gymnasium, ’Coastal Calm’ beauty treatment suite, pool table, regular live entertainment, 9-hole putting green and laundry facilities.
The holiday cottages at Burn Coastal Retreat are set in 45 acres of delightful North Cornwall countryside, close to Bude Bay, an ideal place to explore all the delights of the north coasts of Cornwall and Devon. The village of Stratton is just half a mile away, and its twin town, the lively seaside resort of Bude, only five minutes drive away. Bude is popular with locals and visitors alike, with lots of shops, restaurants, pubs and one very special feature, the 19th century canal, which is now used for boating and fishing. Along its banks are tea rooms and an art and craft gallery, with pretty walks to the breakwater, or to the lookout tower on the cliff top, with its wonderful ocean views.
Burn Coastal Retreat is in a perfect position to explore the surrounding countryside, being in Cornwall, yet close to the border with Devon and its outstanding north coast and moorland. Favourite beaches with visitors are Widemouth Bay, with Summerleaze and Crooklets beaches both within easy walking distance of Bude, and Duckpool, an unspoilt cove set in a delightful wooded valley owned by the National Trust. Burn Coastal Retreat is an ideal base from which to explore this delightful area.
