The hottest of Cornish hotspots, The Beach at Bude is a place to relax, eat and drink, and celebrate all things coastal. Overlooking Summerleaze Beach and beyond, the hip beach bar draws in a young crowd at weekends with its inventive cocktail menu and summer terrace. Enjoy laidback luxury dining - with beautifully presented plates fusing the freshest ingredients and flavours - before sipping a delicious cocktail with a Cornish twist on the sea-facing sun deck.
Hit the Atlantic for a surf lesson or improve your rowing skills by taking out a canoe or kayak on the historic Bude Canal.
As the name suggests, The Beach at Bude is located right on the shore in north-east Cornwall's popular resort town of Bude.
By car: just off the A39 to Bath, the hotel is an hour and 20 minutes from Exeter or Plymouth and two hours from Taunton.
By train: Bude doesn't have great train links. It's best to jump off at Exeter St Davids and transfer to the hotel by bus or car (1 hour 30 mins).
By plane: Newquay Airport is an hour's drive from the hotel and Exeter Airport 1 hour 20 mins.
This is an upbeat coastal-inspired hangout particularly aimed at a younger clientele, perfect for cocktail lovers and those in search of sublime sea views. The updated Victorian house retains its original character, but with a fresh and modern décor. In the hip bar coastal living meets city-chic, with a mix of eye-catching furnishings.
The large decked terrace provides the dreamiest alfresco spot to unwind and people-watch with a sundowner in hand.
