Home description
Mallards is a high standard holiday cottage which is ideal for a stay with family or friends. Converted from an historic building it offers spacious and flexible accommodation. You can sit and relax on the waterside terrace, or enjoy a leisurely row along the canal, but if you need more action there is a huge choice of things to do locally and in the surrounding area.
Bude has some of the best surfing beaches in Cornwall and Widemouth Bay is just a short drive away. The beaches, town centre and other recreational facilities are within walking distance so you don't need to drive anywhere if you don't want to, and older children can be largely independent. Much of the coastal countryside nearby is open to the public and offers stunning coastal views and walks.
