About this property
THE SHIPPEN, pet friendly, character holiday cottage in Kilkhampton
The Shippen in Gooseham, Cornwall can sleep four people in two bedrooms.
The kitchen/diner houses an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, a sitting room with woodburning stove and a TV with DVD player. The bedrooms include a king-size and a twin, serviced by a bathroom. To the outside is a patio with furniture and off-road parking for two cars. Within 6.2 miles or less there is a shop, beach and pub. This property does accept one pet however smoking is not allowed. WiFi, fuel, power, bed linen and towels are all included in the price. Choose The Shippen for your next escape to Cornwall.
Amenities: External oil fired boiler with underfloor heating. Electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine. Smart TV, Netflix, Freesat, WiFi with Full Fibre Broadband, selection of books, DVDs and games. Fuel and power inc. in rent. Bed linen and towels inc. in rent. Travel cot and highchair available on request. A gated paved driveway with Off-road parking for 2 cars. Driveway continues to the Patio area with furniture and gas pizza oven. Two well-behaved dogs welcome. Sorry, no smoking. Shop 1.2 miles, pub 2.2 miles, beach 6.2 miles.
Region: Cornwall’s visitors are constantly tempted back to the beautiful coastline, tiny fishing villages, hidden coves and the world-class surfing. Whatever the reason, Cornwall has long cemented its place as one of Britain’s premier holiday destinations.
Town: Four miles from the well-known Victorian beach resort of Bude, one of Cornwall's top vacation spots, is the historic Cornish village of Kilkhampton. Kilkhampton, with its historic church, charming shops, and quaint pubs, is a great location to unwind after a long day of seeing the area's world-famous beaches and breathtaking coastal landscape. Surfers from all over the nation visit Bude's beaches because, when the circumstances are ideal, it's difficult to find better surf. Miles of golden beach and several rock pools keep visitors busy for hours when the tide is out. This region is a refuge for hikers and lovers of the open countryside thanks to the South West Coast Path and numerous additional rights-of-way that wind over the clifftops and through lush green fields with views of the sea. A good retail centre, many bars, two clubs, and restaurants are available for individuals who would rather stay closer to home. Bude Canal, a designated natural reserve, runs through the town. A relaxing way to spend an hour or two is to paddle a boat along its tranquil waters or stroll down the towpath among the lovely (and amiable) waterfowl that reside among the reeds. Additionally, there are two golf courses, an indoor pool, and a bowling alley in the vicinity. Ideally situated for everything North Cornwall has to offer.
