Firethorn is an impressive home set in a highly sought-after location, just a short walk from Bude’s award-winning beaches. From the moment you step inside, the attention to detail is unmistakable. At the front of the house, there’s a versatile ground-floor bedroom that can be arranged as either a twin or an indulgent super-king, thanks to the zip-and-link mattress. This bedroom also benefits from its own modern ensuite shower room. Please let us know at the time of booking what configuration you would like the beds to be made as. A few steps down leads you to the spacious open-plan living area, designed for both comfort and style. The fully fitted kitchen is a dream for any cooking enthusiast, with striking marble worktops and exposed wooden apex beams overhead. The central island, with three wooden stools, offers the perfect spot for breakfast or coffee. The dining area features a generous wooden table with six stylish wishbone chairs. Upstairs, the sense of luxury continues with two beautifully appointed bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom features a modern ensuite with a double walk-in shower, spacious built-in wardrobes, and a sumptuously comfortable king-size bed. The second bedroom is designed as a charming twin room for children, complete with bookshelves, a cosy beanbag, and ample storage. The family bathroom is finished to a high standard, featuring a luxurious freestanding double-ended bathtub and a separate walk-in shower. Outside, the rear garden offers a well-maintained lawn, a private hot tub, a large rattan furniture set, a heated outdoor shower, and a charcoal BBQ — perfect for enjoying outdoor dining and evening relaxation. At the front of the property, there’s a generous private driveway with space for three vehicles, along with an EV charger available for an extra fee. Firethorn does not accept stag or hen parties.
