Hilton Farm Holidays - Bude

Kath D. C.

Absolutely amazing weekend at Hilton Farm Cottages. We had the Farmhouse and The Nook for a family get together. The setting is fabulous, the accommodations are extremely comfortable and very well equipped. Pool heated, Hot tub the same. 2 miles into Bude. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay.We are already planning another get away next year..

Stayed here for 5 nights at the start of September. The weather was hot and sunny so the pool was a fantastic addition. The accommodation was clean and well kept and had everything we needed. Great location just 10mins out of Bude. We also played tennis everyday which was not expected but a good facility to have. Would be a great location for groups of friends or multiple families to enjoy together. We'll definitely be returning.

Brilliant facilities. All you need. Cottages are spacious and amazing views all around.
If anything needed changing and this is being finicky. If would be great if the footy pitch could be levelled & rolled as I nearly twisted my ankle in little ditches and did fall over a few times on some bumps. But we still had great little matches till silly o clock - and my lads are footy mad
Nice tennis courts as well and you’ve got an indoor games room with pool, football table and little games to play.
Couple of local beach’s nearby all within 10-15 mins

We had the most amazing time at Hilton Farmhouse Holiday Cottages in Summer 2018.

The site is beautiful, the owners are very helpful, and their children lovely too.

Over the course of 2 weeks there were 8 adults and 5 children, and we stayed in 5 of the 10 cottages (we moved half way through as needed a bigger cottage the second week and wasnt available the first week):

PEAR TREE
Of the smaller cottages, our grandparents (age 90) stayed in Pear Tree. They weren't massive fans of this unfortunately, although the cottage itself is fine, they just felt that, and probably more of an issue as they can't get about very well, that there wasn't really anywhere for them to sit out and enjoy the views. French doors in the back of the cottage would have been AMAZING! Even when sat on the sofa it was too low to see out of the window. I think they were just a bit far from the rest of the family and unable to watch the children playing on the play area. Note that it really is only a very short walk up a bit of a hill but just something that my grandparents struggled with. It's unfortunate for them that this was the most accessible cottage. The owners had even swapped the picnic bench for table and chairs for them so it was no fault of the owners.

POUND
My parents stayed in Pound cottage which was just amazing. Right on the play area/meadow, so ideal for watching the children play, as they also had 2 children staying with them. A nice picnic area out the front too. This cottage would have been perfect for my grandparents as it is also an accessible cottage, however only had a shower over the bath, and not a walk in shower, so unfortunately this made it inaccessible for my grandparents. It's an amazing cottage.

PRIMROSE
I also stayed, with my sister and children, in Primrose which sleeps 5 & is a lovely cottage. Overlooking the pool (but with a driveway/road in between). Small balcony on the front. The middle floor is the living area / kitchen, & downstairs there is a double bedroom & a small single bedroom. Upstairs above the living area is a mezzanine level. This was fine for myself but couldn't let the kids be up here on their own as there was the risk they could climb/fall over. Probably for a family of 5, with young children the cottage isn't ideal as you're split over different levels, but for us it was perfect! Top tip, when you're unloading the car on arrival, pass things through the bedroom window, otherwise you're running up & down no end of stairs!!

STABLE
My hubby & the pup came to stay for a few days, as there was a small, dog friendly cottage available, being Stable. This was the middle of the smaller cottages. Again not really anywhere to sit outside, but this didn't matter to us as we had family across the site, & were out & about in the day anyway, plus it was only for a few nights.

BADGER
My brother also came down to us the second week, and so we moved from Primrose into Badger. Badger sleeps 6, and the cottage felt so much more spacious! If Badger is available I would definitely choose it over Primrose, just for the extra space. But layout was pretty similar. There was a bunk room instead of a small single, and this was even much bigger. Maybe because it was an end property? The mezzanine in Badger was much better as it was all enclosed with frosted glass so felt much safer, more like a bedroom. It also meant that the children could go to bed up there when we were talking downstairs!

OVERALL
The site as I have said is lovely. It's a lovely size. The children were safe to roam the site, the play area and the games room, with the animals to look at too. The pool was fabulous and so was the hot tub, although we didn't use that as much. We tended to spend the morning and early afternoon at the beach and then come back to the heated pool late afternoon. The location is perfect. About 7 min drive from summerleaze beach. There are plenty of kitchen utensils in all of the properties so that was good.

We looked to return this year but it was already booked up unfortunately so we know to book early next year!!

Second time staying at rhis wonderful place. Such beautiful sunsets. Pool and hot tub, an absolute sanctuary.
Accommodation just perfect. A much needed break with my family just before the school summer holidays. Was blessed with great weather too.

Really lovely and quite reasonably priced place to stay. Easy to book and arrangements were very clear. The couple that run it were nice and very accommodating. It's in a lovely rural spot which is also a very short (5 mins) drive into Bude itself (or the many local beaches) without the noise and congestion of staying in the centre. The cottages are basic but comfortable and have everything you need, while having an outdoor heated pool, tennis court and games room is great for the kids.

We stayed for a week in one of the cottages recently and it was beautiful, great views, nice field to walk your dog in and a swimming pool. We really enjoyed our peaceful stay and will be back.
