Going for Gold - Again!

Beautiful Bude did it again! Best UK Seaside Town in this year's British Travel Awards!

WW1 - Centenary Celebrations

 

A great turnout yesterday morning for the unveiling of Kilkhampton's newest resident - a commemorative life-sized sculpture of a British soldier.

Fish are still swimming!



Wintery woods

 

 

Winter arrived very late this year - quite unusual for us to have snow here so it was quite a treat to see the place transformed! Boris braved the weather to check that everything (including the fish!) was in order, whilst Buster opted to stay indoors and keep warm (wise old dog!)

TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence

We're very pleased to report that we have once again been awarded a Certificate of Excellence from TripAdvisor - for the 7th consecutive year no less!

They said:

“TripAdvisor is excited to announce the recipients of the 2017 Certificate of Excellence, which celebrates hospitality businesses that have consistently received strong praise and ratings from travellers”, said Heather Leisman, Vice President of Industry Marketing, TripAdvisor. “This recognition allows us to publicly honour businesses that are actively engaging with customers and using feedback to help travellers identify and confidently book the right property at the right price.”

We are all extremely proud of the award - and would like to thank all of our guests who took the time to review us!

Winter Plumage

Our resident pheasant popped by a couple of days ago - we think to show off his magnificent winter attire! He certainly looked in better shape than the last time he visited in early October.......

We are the champions!

 

 

 

Another successful scoop at the annual British Travel Awards! Once again, Bude won Gold for best UK coastal resort and Cornwall won Gold for best UK holiday destination. We can't say that we're surprised - we know exactly how special Bude and Cornwall are!

Bude Wins Again!

 

According to a Sunday Times 'Great British Summer' article published this month, Summerleaze Beach in Bude was crowned winner in 'Town - The First Resorts' category, firmly beating Fistral at Newquay into second place. Special mention was given to the sea pool, beach huts and wonderful restaurants (which, and we quote "give Rick Stein a run for his money!)
