This detached four-bedroom, seafront retreat sits directly on the Widemouth Bay shoreline in North Cornwall, offering families and groups of friends a front-row seat to striking coastal scenery. Part of a collection of eco-homes designed to blend into the surrounding landscape, the property features a planted grass roof, wildflower patio areas, and air-source heat pumps. You’re so close to the beach that you can walk barefoot in your wetsuit to the sand for a morning surf. Sea views stretch from almost every room, with rugged rocks and crashing waves on the horizon.
Inside, a large, light-filled open-plan living space sits upstairs with a Smart TV, two sofas, two chairs, a dining table with bench seating, and doors leading out to a balcony with panoramic sea views. The kitchen includes everything needed for preparing hearty Cornish meals. On the ground floor, a games room doubles as a cinema room with air hockey, a pool table, a bar area, and a Smart TV, with doors opening to the courtyard and hot tub. Four bedrooms — two with king-size beds and sea views on the lower-ground floor, one with super-king-size zip-and-link beds, and one with a chalet bunk (single over a double) — each have their own en-suite with a walk-in rainfall shower. Underfloor heating runs throughout during the chillier months. Outside, a sea-view balcony with outdoor furnishings, a curved patio with a lawn, hot tub, and croquet set, as well as planted communal gardens, and two private parking spaces complete the picture.
Widemouth Bay is a long, unspoilt stretch of sandy beach and craggy cliffs known for great surf and water sports — with lifeguard cover throughout summer, making it ideal for beginners and seasoned surfers alike. Surf hire is available nearby, and a beach cafe sits just metres away. Several pubs are within walking distance, and the South West Coast Path runs past the front door, offering miles of scenic walking in either direction. Bude (3.5 miles) has plenty of restaurants, shops, and activities, including coasteering, stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, and bike hire.
