First class accommodation. Very clean throughout. Good quality bedding and towels. Everything was included that we needed. Hosts were very friendly and helpful. A very nice welcome basket including cheese and cider, a real taste of Cornwall. It was about 20 minutes walk into Bude but steep in places and sometimes no path. We still managed this walk several times. No shops nearby but there was a pub that served food.

Weekend visit

Property description doesn't do justice to the excellence of Little Rowans. A perfect stay for a couple. The property has five star accommodation, facilities, ambience and, of course, hosts. No detail was missed and location is perfect for a visit to this part of Cornwall.

A very well equiped property which met all our expectations internally with fresh, clean decor and equipment. It is situated within a short drive of supermarkets and a short walk from a local pub serving meals, which was also a bonus. Our hosts were easy to contact and provided a welcome hamper on arrival. We were advised to reverse into the drive which was sometimes tricky due to other traffic on the road, although it would be impossible/dangerous to reverse out. The bifold doors at the rear were a very positive feature as they provided a lovely open aspect to the natural world of the garden. However the very close proximity of the neighbour's garden and the work being done on the rear of the house, especially quite early on some mornings did compromise our privacy.

June stay at Little Rowans

Lovely cottage, well appointed with charming garden. We loved the location for various walks along the coast. Pub just up the road was perfect for two of our dinners. We’d stay again in a heartbeat! Thanks Helen and Andy for hosting us.

An absolute gem

Myself and my partner stayed here for four nights and couldn't fault the property at all. Excellent location (5minute drive to main beaches and shops) and the furnishings we're all to a high standard. We ended up liking it so much we opted to stay in and cook most nights.

Great stay, lovely property

The accomodation is excellent, spotlessly clean, really lovely. We had a nice hamper on arrival, the owner Helen met us when we got there and explained everything clearly. A short walk into Bude (20 mins) and a great location for exploring North Cornwall. A guide is provided which provides some excellent recommendations for eating out and places to go. Would recommend, if you are thinking of booking don't hesitate!

Peaceful and Relaxing Little Rowans

Little Rowans is a beautifully presented property in a most picturesque village within walking distance of Bude. The house is immaculate, well equipped and beautifully quiet. The furnishings are extremely tasteful and the garden is delightful. Helen could not have been more welcoming and helpful. We had a most relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Week away

We absolutely loved this property. Beautifully finished to the highest standards with a huge comfortable bed in a lovely peaceful village. Only 15-20 minute walk to Bude with all it has to offer. It is also close to the coastal paths and it’s spectacular views. Great to return to after a day out, open the bi-fold doors and enjoy the lovely garden.

Little Rowans -Bude

Little Rowans is a gem of a property in a great location. Everything, equipment wise, was at hand. The garden sun-spot was an added bonus! The property is a stone's throw from the welcoming local pub and a short car ride from several great beaches. The hosts, Helen and Andy were equally fabulous! We had an amazing stay.!

Loverly property

Very clean and spacious accommodation for the two of us with parking right outside. As the weather wasn’t too kind to us it was nice to come back and light the log burner which made the place very cosy. Facilities were all of high quality and everything was thought of. Highly recommend The Bank restaurant in Bude excellent food and very reasonable. Also the welcome pack with cream tea was much appreciated.

Excellent accommodation

We stayed for 5 nights in May half term. The accommodation was very clean and exactly as advertised. There was a welcome pack consisting of tea, coffee, milk, scones, jam, clotted cream, cheese and biscuits.Communication was excellent - the owners live next door.The accommodation is in a village just outside of Bude which is walkable in 25 minutes or there is a bus. Friendly pub up the road which serves good food. Kitchen is well stocked with equipment and there is a washing machine and iron if you need it.I would not hesitate staying here again.

Perfect

We arrived at Little Rowans to a very warm welcome from Helen, who was very helpful in suggesting walks and restaurants. And were touched by the kind gesture of the Vegan treats left for us. The property was amazing. Comfortable, very clean and well equipped with lovely attention to detail. We really enjoyed the garden and the beautiful views over the countryside, if it’s peace and quiet you’re looking for this is the place for you. We were able to walk the coastline and in to Bude which was ideal for us. Thanks Helen and Andy for a great stay.

A Blissful Week

First class in every way. So beautifully thought out and presented Little Rowans is exceptional. The gravel garden is a lovely spot for an evening drink with the bees humming in the lavender and views over the countryside. The house is spacious, light and very comfortable and The Preston Gate, a 5 minute stroll up the lane, does some good food including takeaway. Our 2nd stay here. We came back for more! This part of North Cornwall feels far from the crowds.

What a find........We spent 4 nights in this fabulous house and wished that we could have stayed longer. Located in a lovely village we had views across open fields and only 1.5 miles from the centre of Bude. It was spacious, comfortable, beautifully furnished and lacked for nothing. Helen and Andy made us feel very welcome and the homemade cream tea left for us was delicious.As an added bonus there was a Beer Fest in the friendly local Preston Arms pub over the weekend.
