About this property
Stylish rural retreat with king-size comfort, close to Bude's stunning coastline
Escape to The Corn Store, a beautifully converted Victorian building offering a peaceful first floor sanctuary for couples. Set in unspoilt countryside, this stylish retreat combines character and comfort with a contemporary finish—perfect for relaxing breaks and exploring North Cornwall and Devon. Just nine miles from the popular seaside town of Bude, and within easy reach of stunning National Trust beaches, The Corn Store is ideally located for enjoying dramatic coastlines, charming villages, and walking the stunning south-west coast path. Although there are circular walks from our farm, a car is essential to make the most of this scenic area. This apartment has a thoughtfully designed interior that is light and spacious, offering good wifi. It features a luxurious king-size bed for restful nights, a modern walk-in shower, open-plan living area with a cosy wood-burner and 43” smart TV, together with a fully equipped kitchen. After a day of exploring, unwind by the fire or head up to the mezzanine level, where you can enjoy far reaching views over the Marsland valley. Depending on the time of year you might see spectacular starling murmurations, long-eared bats catching insects at dusk over our wildlife pond, deer, or hedgehogs late at night. Our black and white rescue cat, Bubble, keeps a watchful eye over the whole farm. We provide a wealth of information so that you can get the most out of your well-earned break. This includes our own guide covering places to eat and visit, the best local walks, beaches, and hidden gems. 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. Please note that the Barn is not suitable for babies, infants or children.

We had a fabulous week staying at the Corn Store, so good we did not want to return home! The apartment is very well equipped and furnished to a high standard. There are local walks you can do from the Corn Store but if you want to travel further afield the location is excellent for exploring Devon and Cornwall. Would recommend the local Farmers Market on Sunday mornings - we picked up some nice local produce.Riki was a great host and very knowledgeable about the local area.
The Corn Store has everything you require, is well maintained, clean and well laid out. Riki and Martin were excellent hosts full of useful information and available if required.The location suited our requirements as we enjoy walking, sightseeing and the coast. We had a wonderful two week holiday and would fully recommend the Corn Store.
The Corn Store is a perfect little retreat, the interior design very tasteful and comfortable... The hosts are charming, our four nights could not have been better! Thank you Riki and Martin for creating this lovely space!
Corn store accommodation excellent, high spec property. All the information you need about the surrounding area is in a very detailed folder that was a great help.
Lovely property with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The hosts were so helpful and friendly, there if we needed them and really knowledgeable about the area. The property feels peaceful but is so close to lots of attractions and beautiful walks, beaches, places to eat etc. Nearby Bude is a real gem. Would absolutely recommend the Corn Store, we loved our stay.
Beautifully converted old corn store. The owners have thought of everything, making our stay very relaxing and enjoyable. Great hosts, very friendly and helpful. Would definitely book again if visiting the same area in future.
Spent 3 nights here. The apartment is beautiful, well equipped, warm and inviting. The bathroom with heat floor stunning. Definitely a place I would recommend to anyone 100%
This was our third visit to the corn store. As with previous visits the corn store was just perfect. The location is peaceful and relaxing, well equipped with every thing you need and very comfortable. The hosts are welcoming, friendly and very informative with local knowledge. We will be certainly staying at the corn store again. Thank you for making our stay perfect.
The Corn Store has been beautifully designed. All furniture and fittings appear new and of good quality.It is very clean and well-equipped, with comfortable bed and seating.
There are so many beautiful areas nearby- we ran out of time to visit them all. Riki and Martyn were welcoming and helpful and really deserve the 5 stars!
Had a wonderful short break at the Corn Store where we met Riki and Martin the lovely hosts. Accommodation was great, - clean, comfortable and peaceful. The ensuite shower was amazing. Would love to return.

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.
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!
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.
Cosy retreat as a starting point for fantastic excursions
It all started with a friendly welcome from Riki, our landlady. She provided information about everything, and there was a wealth of information material in the Corn Store about all the sights in the near and far surroundings. The holiday home is perfectly equipped, everything is of the latest standard and very new. The bathroom and kitchen are spotlessly clean and Riki and Martin have provided milk, water and eggs for a good start. Tea and coffee are also available en masse. Bed linen and towels also very nice and soft - they are replaced after a week if necessary. The bed itself is very comfortable, but also very cosy. It's an advantage if you get on well with your bedfellow...
Shopping facilities in Killhampton (well-stocked Coop) and Bude (large supermarket: Morrisons).
There are plenty of excursions available - the coast is not far away. Highly recommended: Bude beach and Sandymouth Bay. A must: Hartland Quay in windy weather...
We really enjoyed our time and went on lots of excursions. Always happy to return and a big thank you to Riki and Martin for this gem.
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.
Lovely accommodation in a very peaceful area. The Corn Store was really well equipped and spotlessly clean. The hosts were really helpful. I had the most wonderful, restful break. Would definitely stay here again.
Riki and Martin were very friendly and helpfull. The cottage is lovely and very comfortable. Bed and shower were super. The area is amazing. Very good for walking and the scenery is breathtaking.
We spent a wonderful week in the apartment and the region.

We highly recommend the Corn Store. Riki and Martin were very welcoming and helpful. It was so peaceful and relaxing, just what we were hoping for. The Corn Store is one of the best places we've stayed in. Can't fault it. The bed is very comfortable and the en-suite was excellent. The week went far too quickly. Some lovely walks nearby and Bude is just down the road. We hope to come back. Thank you Riki and Martin.
Riki and Martin wore wonderful hosts to a beautiful home. Their local knowledge really helped us make the most out of our 4 night stay. We loved every minute of it!! Thank you!!
Thank you for a wonderful time at the Corn Store. The cottage was outstanding, a lovely and premium place, furnished to modern and high standards, quietly situated in the breathtaking landscape of northern Cornwall. We nearly felt at home. Moreover, Riki and Martin were marvellous hosts, taking care of us in every necessary way. So we can recommend the Corn Store without any restrictions, for a short stay or even a longer period of time. We stayed for two amazing weeks.
This was our fourth visit to this beautiful Corn Store. It is a very special place to stay. It is quiet, spotless, comfortable, has everything you need and is set in wonderful countryside. Riki and Martin are the perfect hosts, they have local knowledge to share and are always there to help. If visiting north Cornwall, this is the perfect place to stay. You can guarantee a good nights sleep on the really comfortable bed. We highly recommend the Corn Store and we will definitely be visiting again. Thank you again, Riki and Martin, for another wonderful holiday.
