Lovingly converted 1st floor Victorian corn store near coast perfect for couples

This first floor luxurious 1-bed apartment combines its original Victorian charm with a stylish interior. An ideal location for exploring unspoilt north Cornwall & Devon, with beaches and the coast path within easy reach. Relax in the peace and quiet, sink into the sumptuous king size mattress, and enjoy your home comforts: the perfect retreat.
**Housing crisis in the South West: the Corn Store only has planning consent as holiday accommodation so by booking it you are not preventing a local family from having a home to rent**
Make the most of your break using our customised information on local walks, and places to visit. You can discover hidden gems that only the locals know about.
Treat yourself to breakfast on the balcony, enjoy the walk-in shower, curl up in front of the wood burner, or have a drink on the mezzanine looking out across rolling countryside.
This light and spacious one-bed apartment has been completed to a very high standard, offering guests a home from home experience. Its attractive Victorian stone exterior and spacious balcony give it pride of place in the courtyard, with parking directly outside. Guests need to be mobile enough to negotiate a steep flight of steps up to the front door, and will need a car to get around.
The interior is all about making our guests feel welcome and at home. The en-suite shower room has underfloor heating and a generous walk-in shower. The large open plan living area has a fully equipped fitted kitchen with dishwasher, and seating area with cosy wood-burning stove and 43” smart TV, with an oak staircase leading up to the mezzanine level with spectacular views. In addition, there’s a separate utility room close by with clothes washing facilities, and additional freezer space if you need it.
Although we’re no longer a working farm you can often see a local farmer’s attractive Stabiliser cattle grazing in our organic field, and we keep a flock of chickens. Depending on the time of year you might see geese or ducks rearing their young on our wildlife pond or long-eared bats catching insects at dusk, both visible from the mezzanine window. We provide binoculars to help you spot the birdlife, including the Great Spotted Woodpecker, goldfinch, tits and chaffinches on our birdfeeders. Our black and white rescue cat, Bubble, keeps a watchful eye over the whole farm.
As you step into the living area you'll notice how light, spacious and welcoming the space is, and how much love and attention has been put into the conversion. Soak up the morning sun on the balcony in the peace and quiet. Or relax inside the Corn Store reading, completing a jigsaw, watching TV, or cooking a favourite meal. On colder days the insulation and heating keep the interior very warm, and you can create an even more cosy vibe with the wood burner.
In the living area you have a large, fully-equipped kitchen with plenty of storage space, oven hood, supplies of tea, coffee and sugar, and 2 pints semi-skimmed milk when you arrive. There are dishwasher tablets and cleaning products, with tea and hand towels. *
As the main photo shows there's a quality sofa and armchair facing the smart TV, next to the wood burner. There's also a tower fan for the hotter days and a clock showing the current tide height locally, very useful when you want plenty of sand to walk on. On the right side of the room is a large, concealed store room under the mezzanine with iron & ironing board, a useful space for storing suitcases.
A locally crafted, oak staircase leads up to the mezzanine level, the ideal chillout space to take in the views over the valley towards Devon with the binoculars, our wildlife pond, and a local farmer's cattle in our field. There's also a table with jigsaws if you fancy trying to complete one before you leave.
The bedroom leads off to the left of the living area. The double bed has pressed cotton bedlinen and an all-seasons feather duvet so you can change it to a warmer/cooler tog if you prefer. Each guest has a synthetic, and a feather pillow, but we can provide a firmer pillow. We turn the mattress between each booking. The window overlooks the courtyard and has blackout curtains.
The en-suite bathroom has a quiet fan, a tiled floor with underfloor heating in winter, and the most glorious walk-in shower with a hair shower and soaker. It's wifi-operated so you can set the temperature and then step under the water. Lots of storage, and hand soap is provided.
Most of the space in our courtyard building is used for storage, but we have one other holiday cottage for couples. It is completely separate, with entrance and parking on the other side of the courtyard. So you may meet a guest in the shared Utility room which houses a washing machine + washing materials, dryer, larger recycling bins, and tourist leaflets.
We love welcoming guests from all areas of the UK and the world, with the aim that that they return home with everlasting memories of their stay here.

Immaculate gem in Bude!
My wife & I have just returned home having spent 3 nights at the Corn Store conversion in Woolley nr Bude. A warm & friendly welcome on arrival from Martin. He was really helpful in giving us an introduction to the accommodation. The accommodation itself is in pristine condition. We both said on the way home that it is the cleanest place we have stayed in and it is testament to the hard work that both Riki & Martin put in to keep it in such high standards. There is everything you need to have a peaceful and relaxing stay. The kitchen is well equipped with pots and pans and utensils. There was enough wood for us to use the wood burner over the 3 nights of our stay. The highlight of the place was the shower. It is superb. A choice of two different shower heads with a huge cubicle to wash in. It was so nice! The mezzanine floor of the place was really lovely too with seating to take in the views of the Cornish countryside. The whole atmosphere of the accommodation was warm, cosey and a place we both wanted to spend time in. It's location is brilliant too. Only a 4-5 minute drive to the village of Kilkhampton and about 12 - 15 minutes drive to the town and beach of Bude. We cannot recommend the Corn Store enough. It is a place that my wife & I wanted to spend time in and one we could relax in. The 10 out 0f 10 clean sweep of reviews on here says it all. It was the reviews that sold it to us both to book our three nights away there. We will be returning for sure.

Charming first floor apartment in ideal central location
We loved staying at the corn store! It’s situated right on the Devon/ Cornwall border in a quiet hamlet, with good access to the A39 making it the ideal location for day trips by car. The property was a true home from home; clean and well equipped with everything you need, kitchen utensils, bedding etc. There’s laundry facilities shared with the other property there that were a massive help on our 2 week stay. Our hosts were very welcoming and showed us around on our arrival and were happy to chat and made us feel as friends throughout our stay which was lovely. Bubbles the cat was lovely too! The property has a folder with loads of info and suggestions the hosts have tried and recommended which was a brilliant starting point to planning our days out. Overall an amazing little gem of a property in a great central location.

Another wonderful stay at the Corn Store
Our sixth year staying at the Corn Store - what better endorsement can I provide? Riki and Martyn maintain the property to an excellent standard and are very welcoming and helpful hosts. The property is well appointed, with all the facilities that you could want for a holiday let. The Corn Store is located on a farm near to the main A39 trunk road. Excellent and easy access to the whole North Cornwall coast, and only a short drive from some excellent beaches and from the Coat Path. It really is a superb holiday location - highly recommended and thanks again to Martyn and Riki for our latest memorable stay.

Cosy home from home
Greatly enjoyed my stay The Corn Store. The apartment was spotless and every small detail had been thought of; it was incredibly cosy and comfortable. The beautiful views and log fire were such a treat. Riki was amazing and had provided so much detailed information on the area. I essentially worked my way through a list of her recommendations and had great fun exploring nearby towns and coastal walks. The Corn Store was also the perfect place for a solo getaway, to get some peace and quiet to relax, and to get some writing done. I would highly recommend and will visit again!

The Corn Store is beautifully laid out and perfect for two with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Little touches like dishwasher tablets, washing powder to tea bags along with a welcome pack of milk, bread, biscuits and fresh eggs from the hens make this property excellent value for money. Riki and Martin are friendly and helpful without being intrusive and shared their wide knowledge of the area and local events, including the rig regatta at Clovelly. The Corn Store is located perfectly for accessing the main attractions of North Devon and East Cornwall. We will definitely be back again!

Spotlessly clean and Riki and Martin have thought of everything you need for your stay at the lovely Corn Store! I can’t say enough of the flat: the bed is comfortable, the ensuite bathroom is deluxe, the kitchen is well equipped (and knives are even sharp!), and it is quiet in this little hamlet in the country. Riki and Martin are very hospitable and helpful with their suggestions of their community. Make sure to hike some of the Coastal Path from Hartland Point to Hartland Quay. It was so beautiful! Also, the cream tea at the Refectory was delectable!

Spotlessly clean and had everything you need to enjoy your stay. Riki and Martin were welcoming yet unobtrusive and we would wholeheartedly recommend this lovely property to anyone visiting the area.

Comfy Cornish get away
The Corn Store is a lovely, spacious space for two, equipped and finished to a high standard. Riki was great to deal with, attentive though intrusive, and helpful with recommendations on what to see in locally during our short stay. Bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. The mezzanine is a lovely spot to sit, as is the balcony (although I only managed 10 minutes as even in the bright sunshine it was pretty cold outside. The apartment itself was very warm with or without the log burner lit. We travelled 4 hours to get there for a 3 night stay, and it was definitely worth the drive. It felt like we were away for much longer. There's plenty to see, do, eat and drink within a 20 minute drive.

Another Fabulous Stay at the Corn Store
Second time this year back at the Corn Store and the 6th time in total. Ricki and Martin are great hosts, maintaining the property in excellent condition and providing both a warm welcome and lots of helpful advice and guidance on things to do and places to visit. The Corn Store is well appointed and ideal for two people. Everything necessary to cater for yourself and relax after a day sightseeing or walking. The location just off the A39 makes it both easily accessible at the start and finish of your stay but also means that the prime tourist locations of the North Devon and Cornish Coasts are easily accessible. Some fabulous cliff top walks are only a short drive away, as is the lovely town of Bude. Highly recommended and, following two visits in a year, we cannot wait to return.
