Good location, even though shops are a treck away. Some great places to visit all within an hour. Especially Bude. The Beach hotel Restaurant (elements) is something else. The lodge itself is fantastic and well thought out by the owners. We will definitely be staying there again.

We had such a lovely holiday here. This place looks even better in person than the photos, so clean and modern. Would highly recommend to stay here, such great value for money. Luckily I saw in the reviews that theres no light outside the hot tub so we bought a portable one so we could go in it in the evening.

Loved our stay here. Perfect family getaway. The dining table that converted to a pool table was a big hit with the teens. The open plan layout made us feel together and we had plenty of room. It was warm and cosy and the hot tub each morning was a great start to our day. Walks on the beach and a few trips out, just lovely.

We recently stayed at this cabin and overall had a lovely experience, with several standout features that made the stay enjoyable. The location is excellentpeaceful, convenient, and ideal for a relaxing getaway. The cabin itself is a great size, offering plenty of space to unwind. One of the highlights was the beautifully large hot tub, which waRead mores perfect for relaxing. The bed and sofas were very comfortable, adding to the cosy atmosphere. We also really appreciated the pool table/kitchen table combo, which was a fun and clever addition, and the nice-sized TVs in every room made it easy to relax wherever we were. The kitchen is very well done, modern, and pleasant to use. There were a few things that could be improved such as adding some lights by the hot tub as its pitch black by 4pm in the winter and we had to use our phones to have some form of light in order to see where we were going, an undercover canopy would be nice as well especially for the winter. Blinds are definitely needed in the living room to add privacy and stop the sunlight glare from the TV. Overall, this cabin has a lot of potential and many genuinely lovely features that made our stay enjoyable. With a bit more attention to maintenance and a few practical enhancements, it could easily offer an outstanding experience. Hide

Really lovely place to stay , very clean felt like home from home with the great sofas to chill out and relax on and the added addition of the pool/table tennis table was fantastic, beds were very comfortable with lovely warm duvets. The dogs had a great time running around the vast garden. Would definitely visit again.

Wonderful place to stay. My girlfriend and dog had a wonderful stay at the property all week and would gladly come back. Excellent, clean facilities and only a 20min drive to the beach. Plenty of peaceful wooded walks nearby that we failed to get them all in during our week stay. I have nothing negative to say and would gladly revisit again in Read morethe near future. Hide

The Southcott orchard lodge was such a lovely place to stay it was very clean and accessible I would highly recommend this place for a relaxing holiday. There are shops not to far in a car drive. One of the highlights were the variety of in-house games such as pool and table tennis which kept everyone entertained during our down time.
