Rockpool is accessed from a lane running parallel to Downs View and is fully self-contained. The friendly owners live in the adjacent main house which is separated by a fence and garden so your privacy will not be compromised. However, if you require any assistance or local advice, they will be happy to help. After making your booking you will be provided with a lockbox code to access the property key.
As well as private parking, Rockpool also comes with a ‘gated corridor’ which is secured by a key code gate lock. This is an outdoor area for you to keep any sportscrafts that you may bring with you/rent like surfboards and bikes.
By Car
Driving to Bude tends to be the quickest way to get here and Rockpool has private off-road parking via a lane behind Downs View to avoid you competing with the daily beach visitors! The best way to enter the lane is via Summerleaze Avenue - once you reach Rockpool depending on your car size you will find it easiest to park by reversing into the bay.
By Public Transport
Bude may be slightly tricky to get to via public transport, but this makes it all the more special once you arrive.
Bude is just over an hours drive from Exeter which has the nearest well-connected train station. You can then catch a bus directly from Exeter train station to Bude town centre. Buses from Plymouth are also available.
The bus stop in the town is about a 15-minute walk but there are also plenty of taxi's to take you the short journey if you have luggage.
Fortunately, Rockpool is so centrally located that if you don't have a car you will still be able to enjoy all the benefits of Bude's beaches, shops and restaurants by foot!
