- 10 Roundhouses, 4 Cottages
- Perfect for Families
A 10-minute drive inland from the coast of North Cornwall, close to the wild coastline north of Bude, and the beaches at Duckpool and Morwenstow, East Thorne is a beautifully located self-catering retreat. Convenient for the coast but far enough away amid gorgeous countryside, it can't help but be relaxing – a neat little gathering of self-contained roundhouses and cottages that's super-organized yet also super-chilled. Sup wine on your own outside dining space and watch children run around on the green, car-free space. Order fresh local produce or a gourmet hamper before arrival, sip a freshly made morning frothy coffee from the converted horse box and sit in your bubbling hot tub after a lunchtime stroll, before settling down for a dinner of seasonal street food offerings... Life in the West Country doesn't get much better.
The 10 luxurious roundhouses are designed with a nod to the traditional yurt structure – with a central roof light, wood-burning stove and a circular layout – but with the very highest levels of luxury: wooden floors with underfloor heating, handmade double beds, armchairs and coffee machines, a fully-equipped kitchen, as well as a plush en-suite bathroom and your own private hot tub outside. Eight of the roundhouses are suitable for four, while Cynefin and the Secret Roundhouses are exclusively designed with couples in mind, with their own private gardens and extra exclusive features like a roll top bath, an al fresco kitchen and bi-fold doors opening out to glorious valley views.
