Beautiful stays in Widemouth Bay and Luxulyan

The Retreat, Widemouth Bay

Just moments from the sweeping sands of Widemouth Bay, The Retreat is a modern, dog-friendly coastal home designed for relaxed Cornish living. Sleeping up to eight guests across four comfortable bedrooms, it’s an ideal base for family holidays or group escapes, with beach days, surf sessions and long coastal walks right on your doorstep.

Inside, the living spaces are light and spacious, with a contemporary feel that’s both welcoming and easy to settle into.

The bedrooms offer calm, restful spaces to relax at the end of the day. Set towards the end of a quiet road, The Retreat benefits from a peaceful setting and ample private parking. From here, it’s an easy stroll to Widemouth Bay’s two miles of golden sand and a well-stocked local shop nearby means essentials are always close at hand. Bude is just a short drive away, offering cafés, independent shops and the much-loved sea pool.

Whether you’re planning a beach-filled summer holiday or a slower escape out of season, The Retreat is perfectly placed for enjoying one of North Cornwall’s most loved stretches of coast.
