This charming property is one of two beautifully converted farm barns on the premises, making it an ideal haven for couples seeking the tranquillity of Devon and Cornwall's scenic trails, from which you can relish the sound of twigs crackling underfoot. Nearby, you can explore the tea rooms and the 13th-century Bush Inn as well as having all those conveniences we love within the village of Kilkhampton just 1 mile up the road, including two local pubs to choose from, The London Inn and The New Inn. Additionally, the bustling coastal town of Bude, just 5 miles away, is a renowned destination in North Cornwall, boasting golden sandy beaches and an array of local attractions, including a heritage centre, art gallery, surf schools, ten-pin bowling, and a golf course. Venture further afield to Tintagel, a place steeped in King Arthur and Knights of the Round Table legends or explore other historic fishing villages like Boscastle and Clovelly, all within 25 miles.

As you step inside this magnificent retreat, you'll be greeted by a bright and spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, complete with underfloor heating, stunning exposed stone walls, and overhead exposed beams. The space seamlessly marries original and contemporary elements. This sociable room features a modern aesthetic, with a cozy sofa and a Smart TV, making it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy your favourite films after a day exploring the Cornwall coastline. The dining area is an ideal setting for casual meals, and the well-equipped kitchen ensures a hassle-free stay with all the necessary appliances. Moving further through the property, you'll discover the bedroom, complete with a king-size bed, another Smart TV, and ample clothing storage. The luxurious en-suite bathroom is fitted with a bath and a separate waterfall shower to soak, refresh and renew after your Cornish adventures.

Outside, at the back of the property, guests can enjoy their own private enclosed patio area with picturesque views of the rolling fields stretching to Duckpool, making it an idyllic spot to unwind on loungers and savour Cornish sunsets while grilling your favourite dishes on the BBQ.

Just returned from a wonderful week at Ruby- Valley View Cottage. The accommodation was first class, very well presented with everything we needed to enjoy our holiday. The lemon drizzle cake left by our hosts was a nice bonus, as well as the dog treats which our dog enjoyed. Hope to return in the future.

The cottage was everything and more we could have asked for . I own a cleaning business so I am more than fussy! Also my husband has cancer and immunocompromised. The place was spotless. Even if I looked hard I couldnt find any dirt . I was a little worried when I saw it was dog friendly ! But there was no trace or smell or dog . The host Lucy was Read moreso warm and friendly. There was absolutely everything you could possibly need from utensils, to Toilet paper and even bubble bath . So if you forgot something there is enough to get you started. Heath depending! We would definitely return and highly recommend. Thank you Ruby Cottage for allowing us to make some wonderful memories . Hide

We had a lovely week at Ruby Cottage. It was beautiful and clean and in a peaceful part of the countryside. The owners were very welcoming and kind and even left some dog treats out for our dog and a lovely cake and clotted cream for us! We had some great days out which were all within a short driving distance with the main town at Bude, with niceRead more shops and a beach. I used to visit Cornwall a lot when I was little with my mum and dad so going back to those places such as Bude, Tintagel, Mevagissey and Padstow brought back a lot of lovely childhood memories for me. 5 for a lovely holiday!

Lucy was an outstanding hostwarm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. She made sure we had everything we needed, including some lovely extras we werent expecting, and gave us some fantastic recommendations for local walks, beaches, and places to eat that really made our trip special. Her local knowledge was invaluable and helped us experience the area like a local rather than just tourists. The location is idealsecluded enough to feel like a proper countryside retreat, but still only a short drive from Bude, with its stunning beaches, independent shops, and great cafes. We especially loved exploring the nearby coastal paths and enjoying quiet evenings back at the cottage. We came away feeling totally relaxed and refreshed, and were already planning our return visit. If youre looking for a peaceful, scenic getaway with a personal touch, this place is an absolute must. A true hidden gem! Hide
