Cottons Cottage
About the home
Conveniently located near the Cornwall and Devon border, Cottons Cottage provides high quality self-catering holiday accommodation and access to a wide range of onsite facilities.
Leisurely country walks around 20 acres of private farmland? Surf some of the best waves in Cornwall? Spend an afternoon fishing by the lake? A day exploring the nearby beaches and villages? Maybe a game of tennis in the indoor court or some well-deserved R&R in the swim spa?
Whatever you decide to do with your time at Cottons Cottage at the end of the day you’ll return to the comfort of a cosy two bedroom barn that has been renovated to luxury standards.
Once the humble dairy barn, Cottons Cottage is now a beautifully renovated holiday cottage. As one of 12 traditional stone barns on Woolstone Manor Farm, the cottage benefits from vaulted ceilings and a private and sunny south facing garden that floods the airy living space with light. It's an idyllic romantic getaway and the perfect location for a family holiday.

BookThe West Country / Cornwall region
Cream teas, the best surf in the UK, sandy beaches, traditional pubs, world class restaurants, cosy coves and wide open countryside. The rugged coastline of North Cornwall is liberally scattered with bustling seaside towns and quaint villages for the intrepid holiday maker to explore.
The Bude / Widemouth Bay area
Nestled in the rolling Cornish countryside, Cottons Cottage feels a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
But the reality is the vibrant town of Bude is just an 8 minute drive away, giving you access to a wide range of pubs, surf shops, supermarkets, restaurants and cafes for those all important Cornish cream teas.
If you fancy testing out your surfing skills the sandy beach at Widemouth Bay is just a 3 minute drive down the road (where you can also find the local fishmonger, general store, surf shop, fish and chip shop and a great real ale and good food pub). And the pretty cove at Crackington Haven is well worth a visit - it has a lovely pub and two tea shops as well as a beautiful beach.
Explore a little further afield and you'll find the famous Cornish hotspots of Padstow and Newquay are within a one hour drive and the quaint village of Port Isaac is only about half an hour away.

really beautiful converted cottage, decorated in a lovely homely feel. Added bonus of a spa pool and indoor tennis courts which were easy to book. The cottage is very near to the beaches and Bude itself for restaurants and shops. we had a lovely time and would recommend it highly. |

We loved Cottons Cottage. The countryside is beautiful and it is so easy to get to Bude, Port Isaac, Widemouth and Padstow. The quality of the building and facilities are to a very high standard and we found we had everything we needed. The spa is good fun and the tennis court, games room and play room are perfect if you want to stay on site. We had a brilliant time there - thank you. |

Cottons cottage was everything we hoped for and more. The facilities on the farm are great, the cottage itself was clean and tidy and was very well equipped with comfortable beds and lots of lovely home touches. We didn't want for anything and made the most of the short journey to Widmouth Bay and Bude to enjoy the waves. We would definitely book this cottage again. |
