4 Bedroom House in Bideford, Welcombe

Strawberry Water House has a fabulous, large entertaining area with a well equipped kitchen, two dining areas and large lounge with smart tv and log burner. The whole property is furnished to a very high standard in an authentic vintage style. We provide luxury linen and all the bedrooms have exceptional views.

There are 4 bedrooms. A Master with King size bed, rolltop bath and ensuite. Another King size bedroom with ensuite shower. A twin room with 2 singles (which can be made into a super king) and a double bunkbed room with 4 full size single beds suitable for adults or children. The main bathroom has a unique Victorian shower/bath.

The property is surrounded by beautiful gardens with many seating areas and a large lawn. It is a short, flat walk to the stunning beach which has a waterfall and is on the renowned South West Coast Path. The beach faces west and the sunsets are wonderful!

Welcombe Mouth is a beautiful valley, quiet and peaceful with very few properties. The nearby, award-winning Old Smithy pub serves excellent food and the local towns of Bude, Hartland and Bideford offer a variety of eateries and attractions.

Our changeover day is Friday. If you would prefer a different changeover day, please do contact us to see if that can be accommodated.

If you need more (or separate) accommodation, Strawberry Water Cottage is also available for booking and sleeps 3. Please contact us for details.

“Strawberry Water was a brilliant place to spend a week. A little off the beaten track, but that suited us perfectly. The house itself had bags of character and was incredibly well thought out. Comfortable and spacious, but also snug. The freestanding bath in the master bedroom was ace! There was nothing we needed that wasn’t there. The gardens were something else! The beach was a short walk down a beautiful path. Being off the beaten track it was never too busy. Ideal for scrambling, exploring rock pools and swimming. Can’t really fault it. If you like the look of it on the site, you won’t be disappointed”. Ben & family

“We visited Strawberry Water with our extended family we all loved the house. It is beautifully decorated (lovely interior design), the layout is great and the outdoor space fantastic. The house has everything we could think of (towels, bedding, fully equipped kitchen, etc.) and we adored the thoughtful little touches the hosts left for us to find upon arrival. The house is within easy walking distance to Welcombe Mouth which is an amazing, wild and authentic pebbled beach. It a perfect place to relax, spend time with people, enjoy nature and recharge your batteries. We will definitely return again - we loved every aspect of our stay.” Sara

“Strawberry Water was a beautiful, peaceful retreat from daily life. We loved the stylish and thoughtful interiors (comfortable bed & luxury linens/towels), well equipped kitchen and everything was so comfortably furnished and clean! The location was stunning - nearby beach was beautiful and mostly empty during the week and the pretty bluebell wood track along the river to get there was just as magical”. Gill

“We had the most fantastic week at Strawberry Water - the house is extremely comfortable and well equipped. There was plenty to do from the house - you can walk to a beach and in 10 minutes you're on the South West Coastal Path. Just a short drive away are fantastic sandy beaches (we went to Sandymouth three times) and we had a great day at Hartland Abbey. The area is beautiful, the local pub (which does excellent food) is within walking distance or you can just stay at the house and relax in the lovely gardens: we even saw buzzards on our last evening. Would highly recommend the house to anyone wanting to get away from it all”. Anna

“Probably one of the nicest places we've ever stayed. Really clean and great to stay. Huge property. Kind of secluded but really worth going there and close to the beach as well. Perfect for family holiday. There's a great pub nearby. Highly recommended”. Christoph

Summary: We had an excellent 10 days at strawberry water. The property is beautiful and has a gorgeous open plan ground floor and plenty of bedrooms. Amazing garden for the kids to play in and well equipped (also an excellent super fast broadband which kept everyone happy!). Amazing peaceful location for local beach which had sand and rocks. Also convenient for Sandymouth (excellent body boarding) and not too far to get to Bude or Widemouth bay. Good local pubs (especially the bush inn). Would thoroughly recommend for families with children especially with slightly older children).
