This is a lovely place to stay. It feels like someone’s home rather than a ‘holiday let’ with lots of home comforts, books, games, and a really well stocked kitchen. The photos on the website are an accurate representation. The garden is fully enclosed which is great if you have dogs and the little courtyard area is a lovely place for eating outdoors. There is a gas BBQ which we used and extra deck chairs and outdoor games in the shed. Beds were comfy and everywhere was very clean. Short drive to Bude town centre and the beach. We would definitely recommend staying here and would like to return!

I could not recommend Aurora Barn enough, we have just come back from a week here and it didn’t seem long enough. The way the cottage is kept, down to decor, land and space it just amazing! We wanted to move in, we fell in love as soon as we arrived. Close to everything you need and only short drives out to other areas. Cannot wait to return, our dog also loved her morning runs around the garden! We had a lovely welcome basket too.

You need to travel an hour for places of interest but doing that you will see places you've not heard of. Barn is in a lovely rural setting and very quiet
