A contemporary dog friendly home sleeping 8 by the beach at Widemouth Bay

As the name suggests, this large Widemouth Bay holiday home is very much by the beach. Located in an exclusive private development on the north Cornish coast, this contemporary home sleeps up to eight guests across four spacious bedrooms. By The Beach also offers private parking, a garden and is dog friendly.

Situated just seconds from the sand, you can easily enjoy all the activities Widemouth Bay has to offer whilst staying in the comforts of a modern beach house. This location is a haven for sandcastle building, surfing and soaking up the sunshine, making it the ideal place for a relaxing holiday by the sea. The bustling town of Bude is close by and the rest of the north Cornish coast is easily accessible from here.

This large Widemouth Bay holiday home enjoys a reverse design layout. Wooden, earthy tones are prevalent throughout the house, providing a relaxing feel. Upon entering the home, you’ll find a spacious hallway which leads off to three of the four bedrooms, and a handy utility room by the front door.

All three of these bedrooms on the ground floor benefit from having their own modern ensuite with walk in shower, as well as enjoying direct access to the garden. Imagine taking an invigorating morning swim at the beach and then relaxing with a morning coffee in the garden, soaking up the sounds of the sea. Two of the bedrooms are doubles — one of which is the principal and enjoys two sets of patio doors; the third bedroom has bunk beds making it ideal for families with teenagers or young children. Upstairs, you’ll find the fourth bedroom which is a spacious twin and is adjacent to the bathroom on this floor. Enjoy a relaxing soak in the tub here after a day spent adventuring on the coast.

The rest of upstairs consists of an open plan modern kitchen and living space, with high sloped ceilings. The space is airy and bright, with an abundance of light flowing in through the double set of Juliet balconies where you can peacefully enjoy sea views of Widemouth Bay. It’s the perfect social hub where families and friends can gather over breakfast to plan the day’s adventures, or spend an evening playing board games. For those cooler autumnal evenings, make use of the cosy wood burner for added warmth.

As well as the communal gardens, By The Beach enjoys its own separate garden area where you can make use of the barbecue and dine al fresco here, or enjoy a glass of something chilled in hand. This large Widemouth Bay holiday home has all the trappings of a beach side retreat — including an outdoor shower for washing off sand, as well as a lockable storage shed for beach gear.

By The Beach is the ideal retreat for a relaxing seaside holiday where you can be on the sand in seconds. Widemouth Bay is a superb beachside destination which is dotted with eateries, an abundance of surf schools and easy access to the beautiful South West Coast Path. This area of coast is rich with mysterious inlets and coves. The sandy expanse of Widemouth Bay beach means little ones can paddle in the shallows whilst those daring for more adventure can try out water sports such as surfing — try the Reubyn Ash Surf School, which is led by a European Champion with 30 years experience! After all the day’s excitement, you can then head back home to By The Beach, where you can relax in comfort and watch a superb Cornish sunset.

Our "upside down" house!!
The grandchildren had asked for a house near the sea and with a garden and By the Sea was brilliant! The beach was a 2 minute walk and the view from the lounge overlooked the waves of the north coast and the SW Coastal path were wonderful. The house was very clean, spacious and well equipped. The two little problems we encountered were quickly resolved with a message to our housekeeper. A wondeeful place to stay!!

Perfect little get away for family & dogs
Super little place for a quiet family/dog friendly break. Clean and well appointed next to a vast sandy beach and within easy reach of Bude by car bus or cycle. Yes there is a rather ‘bizarre’ overly large build on boundary but you can still see/hear the sea and you’re still right by the beach and cafe. Little issue other than it’s an odd fit! All communication very professional and accommodating. Had no problems but James checked in a couple of times with a friendly ‘how’s it all going’ . My only comments are: would be great to have a couple of garden chairs as the bench is a little hard. Also be a wary of the bathroom radiators as they get extremely hot and one of us got quite a nasty burn! They can be turned off but be cautious with children.

Great location
Very close to beach. Nice modern property. Good sized bedrooms and spacious all in kitchen, dinning area and lounge but no blinds to screen the sun so a little difficult to view the TV until after sunset. For us that was week commencing 2 July. Otherwise apart from the creaky stairs we had a very enjoyable stay.

Great place at Black Sands
We had a really nice time, it was an extended family getaway so great that each room had an en-suite bathroom. The house was beautifully clean and so lovely the living area was on the first floor with great views out to the sea. Yes, there’s a building site but was no problem for us.

A nice home for holiday in a great position
We thoroughly enjoying staying at By the Beach. The property offers everything we needed and more. All room has its bath / shower, and toilet. The living room positioned on the top floor gives a view out to the paths and partial view of the beach that unfortunately is blocked by the building work by the property. The owner, James was very helpful when we had a bit of trouble operating one of the appliances. Overall, we had a fabulous time touring and returning to a holiday home relaxing.

Wonderful break in a beautiful house
We had such a wonderful holiday, and found the house was impressively well equipped - particularly for children. The communication with the team was excellent, and they were hugely responsive when we reached out with any issues or questions - both before and during our break. We loved the house and can’t wait to come and stay again soon!
