A beautiful house with plenty of room so that our 3 generations could do their own thing or all come together for meals and games nights. Comfortable and clean property with everything we needed for our weeks stay.

We had a wonderful family holiday at Dowr Gwel! The house was perfect for all 4 generations of our family and so well equipped. We spent most days at the beach in Bude as the weather was beautiful and enjoyed chilled evenings in the house together. A fabulous time, thank you!

Anthony
Dowr Gwel is a gem of a property. Upon arrival we were greeted with a lovely welcome pack and a spotlessly clean home. Everything about the home is first class including the design, the furnishings/fixtures/fittings, hot tub, games room, gardens, views and location. Two very minor issues upon arrival were dealt with quickly and efficiently by the oRead morewners Greg and Steph who are always on hand if required, but never intrusive. Thank you both. This house scores 11 out of 10. Would definitely return. Hide

The perfect property for our birthday celebrations
Michael
Our stay was brilliant everything is provided. A nice 30 minute walk to town when you locate the footpath at the top of the road which goes through the school grounds. Hot tub is perfect. Such a relaxing place. Kings arms in the village is excellent but booking is a must especially for Sunday dinner, prices are good value too. The property is a creRead moredit to Greg and Steph who have put a lot of effort into making the perfect holiday experience. Hide
Nyame
This incredible property is the perfect base to explore the coast. Greg and Steph welcome you to their wondeful home with a generous hamper, complete with fresh eggs from their chickens, seen (but not heard) from the neighbouring yard. The property is spacious enough for guests to have their own 'quiet time' but the open plan kitchen/dining area anRead mored games' room allow for joyous social gatherings. After days filled with hikes and surfing, relax under the stars in the hot tub. Absolute bliss. Hide
Paula

Lovely property. Top quality everything. Hot tub was lush and owners very accessible for anything needed. We went for Xmas and it was fully decorated with an added lovely welcome pack. Easy walk across the gold course down into Bude (takes about 40 minutes).

Absolutely marvelous stay in this spotlessly clean and well equipped house. If it rains, enjoy the games room. The beds are extremely comfortable, and the whole house is very spacious and comfortable. On a nice day, sit on the veranda and watch the goshawk and many other birds, or look at the stars from the hot tub.
Julia
Amazing modern house with fab views, everything you need is there. Very clean. Games room was great fun and hot tub was lovely to relax in. Perfect for a large family. Ideal location to explore the area and near to amenities. Owners were at hand if you needed them but not intrusive. Welcome goodies were most appreciated :)
Lucy
The property was extremely clean and well stocked with everything we could need from a home away from home. Everything was finished to a high standard and the little touches like the welcome package, the motion sensitive night lights in the bathrooms, the hot tub and games room and the offer of high chair/ travel cot were very much appreciated. The house was very well situated and soo close to all local amenities. We would definitely recommend and hope to visit again!

absolutely perfect accommodation, very comfortable and could not fault it. clean and extremely well equipped. A real home from home experience
Anil
Oh my god! This cottage is absolutely amazing! The facilities, location and quality of the home is absolutely amazing. We loved our stay. Probably the best sleep I've ever had and I'm a bad sleeper. The beds are really comfortable, the bathrooms are to a really high standard and the host is super attentive. As the property is new there was a slight issue with a door catching and within 30 minutes a maintenance person was there to fix it. You really cannot fault the host in any way whatsoever.
