This is a beautiful and very spacious house in a lovely position. There is a bathroom for every bedroom and plenty of parking. Unfortunately our weather wasn't very good so we couldn't take advantage of the terrace but we still enjoyed the views from inside. We would love to go again.

What a find. Amazing cottage with lovely views over the fields. The house was immaculate and a very high finish. Plenty of space for our family get away with 8 adults and an under two year old. Nice easy walk into Bude along the road and back along the canal path. Plenty of duck, geese and birds to see. Would definitely recommend Seven Gates

Clean, well equipped large house that is a home-from-home. So good, we've returned for a 2nd visit! Having 2 dishwashers is very useful too. Large rooms, and a bathroom for each bedroom plus an additional toilet is excellent. Great location, and plenty of parking. Highly recommended!

Amazing property within easy reach of Widemouth bay. Some of the younger members of my group managed to get down the steep path to the beach closer to the house. Only for the brave. Bude is always a delight though out of season a lot was closed. If you want a good steak try The Deck. Good food and a lovely welcome. It was amazing to wake up to the Read moreflocks of geese flying directly over the house every morning no matter what the weather. Quiet beeches and friendly people. Cant wait to return. Hide

A wonderful property in a stunning location. We knew exactly where we would be staying having previously rented a property at Pirran Heights just over the road. Well equipped and comfortable, this is a beautiful home and is a great base to get out and about and explore the local area or just sit and watch the idyllic views and wildlife from the terRead morerace or the comfort of the reception rooms when the weather is a bit more wild.

This is a lovely house and very well equipped with amazing views from the rear of the property, which includes the sunrise and sunset. This was the second time we've stayed here but this time a new annex is being built and I'm not sure how this will be utilised or the impact on the privateness of the gated property.
